Atkins Day #5

Holy Crap!

Day 5 weigh in and I'm down 8 pounds. :)

In other good news, the fogginess and fatigue have finally passed. I only had about 7 hours sleep. Up at nine and had breakfast and showered, walked to Carlingwood to do some errands and walked home. Came home to plan dinner and then went to the grocery store and walmart across the street. Came home and Jordan's taking a nap and I'm about to clean the apartment.

SO MUCH ENERGY! I don't think I've felt like this in a really long time. My head is really clear and I generally just feel better right now.

I had 2 nights in a row where I woke up with a charlie horse in my calf. Those are so painful. But I read on the forums that that is either dehydration or lack of potassium in the body. I have been drinking about 10 cups of water a day, so I tried a potassium supplement and last night I didn't have the cramps.

I also took my measurements so that I can see the progress as I lose weight. I'm not going to post my numbers, but I'll let you guys know how many inches I lose.
