Good news for me:)

So I went to the doctor today and found out that I lost 8 pounds last month:) I am thrilled that I made so much progress with the baby steps I have taken. I know it has a lot to do with the phentermine but I am determined to do everything I can to help things along. I want to get into the habit of cooking natural foods instead of eating processed foods and maybe do away with my diet dr pepper habit. I really wish I had more energy to work out instead of spending most of the day on the couch, but its kind of a horrible cycle that I'm in-I have no energy because I dont exercise-I dont exercise because I have no energy. I know that if I jump into eating super healthy, and working out like a maniac that I will just get discouraged and stop altogether. I wish so much that I had a friend to do this with... I do have friends who say they want to lose weight, but they dont want to join the same gym as me or they live too far away. I'm hoping maybe I will meet someone to work out with at the gym or at my new job and if not I'm considering hiring a personal trainer. A really, really mean sadistic one:)
