Day 23: Ouch, I forgot about that!

I've started having one little side effect I forgot about until it happened: muscle pains.  I was walking out of the store with Anna and said, "Ow!" as I took a step.  I was treated with a searing, but brief, stab of pain in my calf as I stepped.  And this morning, a giant leg pain got me out of bed.

I was rather pleased, actually.  Before you think I'm a nutter (Ok, I know.  More than normally.), it's a sign of fast weight loss.  As I understand it, the fat that "holds up" the muscle recedes too auickly for the muscle to catch up, leaving it vulnerable.  Don't worry, it does catch up!  It just takes a little while.

At last weight check (haven't done it this morning yet), I'm down 19.4.
