You do not know how much more happier this makes me. A whole 16 pounds in 10 days. Even more elated than I was yesterday. That alone seems to have boosted my energy level so much I wanna run for some reason. {giggle} But were not gonna do that - for fear of injury. {giggle} Feeling giddy too! Is that weird? Without care of sounding cliche, feels so surreal.
Ok. Get on with it, Amber! Day 11, the continuation of my cleanse. Its 20 days alternating Purium schedule days and eating foods days. In retrospect, it should've started with an OFF day, but instead it started as an ON day. Don't ask me why, just didn't think far enough ahead is all.
Besides, mentally (maybe physically too) I just wasn't ready for FOOD! I mean the concept of being able to eat anything I wanted sounded like a good idea, but really...it made me scared. Scared of going back to my old ways of eating, even though most of my cravings, especially for sugar have all gone. It was more that I just didn't know how to act anymore when it came to eating.
A whole new way of life. That's what it is. Looking at what I was eating before and putting it all into REAL perspective. REALLY!! I will not only have to change my body - as far as its cravings, but change my brain. Learning how to shop & cook differently with different foods..actual REAL foods. Not processed crap that have been a staple for years. Even eliminating, or at least cutting way back on some major players in my life. Like dairy. Mainly cheese.
The BIG picture needs to be more closely examined at this point. Like I said, didn't think far enough ahead...
Mahalo (thank you) for visiting. I will see you on the other side. Be well.
