HCG Day 4 - Hunger Pain

http://carltongrove.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/hunger-pains.jpg 
The hunger pains that I was told about today hit me really bad.  It feels like a very bad stomachache.  I try not to think about it so I chew sugar free gum and drink cold water to calm my stomach down.  This has helped a significant amount but the pain still continues a little. 

So far I learned that there are a lot of triggers of indulging in foods everyday.  It is mental that you actually want to eat that piece of fried chicken wing.  You have to have the mindset of knowing not to eat it .. when your mind tells you that you need that piece of friend chicken .. you really don't.  Your mind wants that piece of chicken to satisfy itself.  Knowing that you ate that fried chicken satisfies your brain .. not your stomach.

I was prescribed an appetite suppressant.  Because I am on a very low calorie diet this will help curb my appetite.  I'm taking phentermine which I take 1/2 tab one hour before I have breakfast.  It is said that after day 3 of the program I would be much less hungry.  But I have yet to see this yet.

Today I weighed in at 242.5
