I went to the pharmacy yesterday, got signed up and it's day one. This is going to sound really stupid but I think I prepared the chocolate mousse the wrong way. But you can blame Lipotrom. I've been on a powdered meal replacement before called Joylent. I made the shakes by filling the shake bottle to a certain point with the powder (it's also a good idea to add a tiny bit of water to the bottom first), then adding the water. The bag instructs me to add the powder TO the water, rather than the other way round. This goes against logic, but I'm just doing what I'm told. So, for the mousse I made, the result was very lumpy. Though I whisked it with a spoon I was thorough. It would make gruel look like a delicacy.
At first I thought, "Hey, this ain't so bad", but very soon the taste seemed much worse and extremely rich. It dawned on me that I already spent so much, and 2/3 of it is vanilla which I'm not a big fan of, but they didn't have much of the chocolate in stock. I couldn't finish this. I managed 3/4. The fact I'm going to have to eat it again later is making me more queasy than the product itself.
With all this said, I'm very serious about losing the weight this time. I'm trying to distract myself so I won't think of food. I just wish the process wasn't so disgusting. Even if I prepare it well I can't see it tasting much better. I wish I could down it like the most awful of alcohols.
Sorry to whine. I needed to and I know I'll get past this initial shock, with time.
