Day one and so far so good, this is always the easiest day, the day you are excited about what you have started. Day two will be ok, day three I will want to hurt someone and day 4 will be even worse. By day five the fog will clear and it will be easier. I have replaced the sweet candy cravings with drinking crystal light, I know I should just be drinking regular water but it makes me feel like I am still satisfying the cravings that I get. Plus the more water I drink the better off I will be, even if it means that right now I am making a trip to the restroom about once an hour. That is slightly annoying but I am sure I will get over it. I actually feel really good about this.
I am excited that I will have more time to get into the swing of things and be able to stick with the program before the holidays roll around. That was my down fall this last time. I think I will do one thing differently and that will be the way I add the carbs back in. I am going to do minimal carbs for awhile. I don’t see anything wrong with sticking to lean meats and veggies and limiting my carb intake as well as the sugar. You would be surprised how many good sugar free or reduced sugar options there are out there if you really need that fix. So far so good and yes I know it is only the first day. I am going to stay optimistic though. :)
I support you in any way that I can. I love you! mom
