Zero. Again.

So. Today is weigh-in day and I lost nothing again. I've also obviously reneged on my promise to write every day. The reason behind these two items is that I spent Thursday through Sunday mostly on the couch trying unsuccessfully to find a position that didn't cause me a great deal of abdominal pain. I went to the doctor on Friday and was informed that I have diverticulitis and put on two different strong antibiotics and a liquid diet for two days. I was also told that if it got any worse, I was to head directly for the Emergency Room. Do not pass Go, do not collect $200. Ouch.

Anyway, I'm not going to bother to put up my intake since it mostly involved water, tea, diet cranberry juice, and beef broth. I'm still hurting today, but it's not nearly as bad, and I'm eating real food again.

I'm having a hard time right now with my program. I feel like giving up, I feel like a failure, because I really screwed up these last four days, and because I just haven't lost what I should have by now. My carbs have been all over the place - 23.55 Thursday, 5.55 Friday, 4.0 Saturday, and 26.68 Sunday. I didn't exercise at all after Wednesday. And I've only lost 17 lbs. Only 4% of my original weight in eight weeks. I've been the same weight for three weeks now. I'm going to do my best to stick with it this week, but I dunno, guys...
