Skepticism

As of today I am down 15 lbs. Every morning I stare at the scale skeptically not really willing to believe the numbers on it. I keep making my friends hop on my scale to make sure it is accurate because I don't believe in anything that is this easy.

Seriously, 10 drops a day and a 500 calorie a day diet but I'm not hungry. I have cravings but those are wants not needs and are usually triggered by driving past a fast food place or walking past the candy aisle at the store. Even those aren't so bad, I smoke a cigarette and it's all good.

I suppose the numbers on the scale aren't lying I just don't see how it is possible to lose 2-4 lbs a day... because that's what it averages out to. Everything throughout my entire life and all of the research I have done my entire life tells me this isn't possible or healthy but I feel better than I have in a long time.

I wish I could just sit back and enjoy the ride but I can't help my skepticism. I suppose if it works out it works out but I won't hold my breath until the weight is gone for an entire year.
