It's day 7 of my diet "challenge". I'm tired, I'm a bit hungry, but I think I'm feeling good. I'm not depressed anymore, felt very confident when I went on my walk yesterday (I almost broke into a run, but thought "no...baby steps"
Tomorrow, on day 8, after all my consumables have been done for the day, I'm going to measure and weigh myself. I'll put up the results the next day (if I don't have time tomorrow). I'm interested to know if I had lost any inches. My husband has already lost at most 5 or so inches in some areas (at least 2 in others). I think I feel slightly jealous that he's losing more than me, but a woman's metabolism is slower than a mans, I think, so we have to work harder to get the results we want (almost sounds like life lol), so today, I am going for a walk while my husband goes to an appointment. I like to walk in the morning...things are cooler, it smells wonderful, and I feel good afterwards. I think things are getting better. I still don't like taking the stuff I have to take, but again, this is a challenge for me, and I will see it through (it'll be interesting to see others go through this, now that I have, so I can sympathize lol)

I think it's safe to say I survived my first "deep cleanse" day. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be, considering I wasn't allowed to eat today. I made my husband's lunch today with no problems, fed my children all without overly craving food. Yeah, I still feel a bit hungry, but its nothing I can't handle. It's nice that my hunger pangs are not as strong as they were when I started my first day. They're slowly progressing to not being hungry all the time (though I can't wait for lunch tomorrow...I think I know what I might have lol).

Nice to see you're doing well with the program. My sister is trying the same thing you are- she's on day 15. It's been pretty hard on her, but she says it gets easier after about day 10.
ReplyDeleteI'm not trying to lose weight, but I do need to get in better shape. Your posts have actually helped encourage me to keep going when I feel like giving up.
How wonderful. It's great that I'm motivating people, even though I don't feel motivated myself sometimes. I wish the both of you lots of luck.
