My First FORM meal

I tried my first FORM pill with about 10 or 12 ounces of water today before lunch. You take it 30-60 minutes before your next meal. (if you want to see how it works, check out the video below) I had brought a peanut butter sandwich and bought some broccoli from the cafeteria to get in some veggies. I had also brought an apple and some pudding from home.

Now I have a big appetite and usually I would have eaten the sandwich, the veggies, the apple and the pudding and still could have eaten more.

I ate half the sandwich, the veggies and that was it, I felt full. I still feel full over an hour later. The company suggests you use FORM for two of your meals and have a sensible breakfast.

They also have a product called FIXX that is a meal replacement shake. I tried that for breakfast today, and it was chocolate and it was really pretty good. I added it to 1% milk and the shake has 10 grams of protein and 7 grams of carbohydrates at about 100 calories (before you add the milk). It tasted like it had more calories than that. I will admit it had a very slight aftertaste (or did I find it because I was looking for one?), so I chewed some Big Red gum and that took care of that.

I have also done one cardio workout and one upper body weight workout. I am a little sore but no flare up of Fibromyaliga symptoms.

All in all I am feeling pretty good about things. I officially start next week. So I am trying to keep a positive thought.
