Wow...
I feel so much different about this way of eating compared to yesterday. I have lost all food cravings, and as far as the new rule for eating dinner, I can decide to take it or leave it. Tonight for dinner I plan to make the "mean green" juice and maybe a slice of sprouted bread with hummus.. It's so yummy.. :)
Not only that, but I jumped on the scale a little early and it said... I lost 8 lbs already. This is impressive to me for a couple of reasons. The first reason is this is the time of the month where I normally retain water (if ya know what I mean). Two, I have done NOTHING for exercise, except for today. I didn't have any energy the last few days to do that, but now... I do :) When the weight loss number nears closer to 20 lbs that will be exciting.
I wouldn't say I have a TON of energy yet, but I would say that I feel much better than I have in the last three days. I am waiting for my daughter to wake up for her nap and then plan to take the kids on a walk to the park.
I am happy to say that I finished reading 3 chapters of my textbook last night and should be able to finish 3 more chapters tonight... (hopefully!) so I can take my first exam this semester on Saturday.
I know this might sounds gross.... But on the movie "Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead," the woman who goes on the juice fast for 10 days said she spent so much time the first couple of days on the toilet. I must admit that I was a little bit worried about that sort of mess... lol... but without going into too many details - that part of my life hasn't changed any.... Well it's changed, but the frequency part hasn't..... I know, I know... super gross, I'm sorry, but if anyone else does this, I'd like to think they would want to know if they need to know if its a for sure thing...
I am going to try hard to start exercising regularly now that my energy has begun to pick up some. Can't wait to keep seeing progress!!
Hey Day 2.... the motivations over here!!!
