Description of my experiences with Ephedrine

Thursday, January 16, 2003
238 this morning.

Yesterday night: About 4 oz popcorn (400 cal?), 6 chocolate-covered cherries (yeah, I know...) 450 cals total, and about 12 pepperoni slices (150 cals total).

Nothing new...2 capsules this morning along with a multivitamin (the vitamin's becoming a regular addition). Two more later. Haven't had anything to eat yet today.

I've already hit January's target (238) so the next two weeks the object will be to stabilize my high-end weight below 238 (maybe 235 is a good target to shoot at).

Then, getting to February's goal of 230 is that much easier, without backsliding...

239 this morning...2 metaboless first thing in the am, then two after lunch. Lunch was a 290-calorie Healthy Choice, plus two Jumbos (no condiments, extra veggies).

No new side effects to report except for the usual wakefulness. After falling asleep around 11 last night, I woke at 6 AM and started right in with my day.

Is it my imagination or does time seem to go faster throughout the day?

241 this morning...had two capsules late last night (~11:30). Fell asleep, but then woke up at 3 am and was able to work throughout the early morning. I feel a little groggy now, though. Not sure how I'll last today.

Yesterday evening, had a corn dog, 8 low-salt meatballs, about 5 oz ice cream and a hot chocolate (120 cal).

Two Shippley's do-nuts this morning. Now, back to the Yerba.

I think a reasonable plan would be to target 238 by the end of January, 230 by the end of February, 224 by the end of March, 220 by the end of April and 216 by Mick's confirmation. Exercise will help as the weather warms...

Sunday I pigged out...no eph til late in the day (2 capsules). Had some pizza, 3 corn dogs and a can of caramel corn (maybe 5 oz or so).

Saturday I had about 7 baked cheese sticks, a dish of ice cream, donut, banana and more...

Today (2 caps in AM, 2 more at 2:30 pm) has just been a Jumbo Jack with veggies but no condiments. Lots of yerba to drink, and the characteristic dry nasal passage and mouth.

Weighed in this morning at 242.
