Since Monday I have been cold turkey on all those things I mentioned before. The first day was brutal, when I had a headache that was probably caused by my body yearning for all the crap I had been putting into it up until that time. But the rest of the week has been great. I have been running every night since Tuesday. I’ve lost 2.5 pounds just since Monday! Woohoo!
And the best indicator, to me, that I am doing something right was how I felt when I woke up this morning. Usually I am groggy as hell and I want to just go back to sleep. But this morning, not only did I wake up a few minutes earlier than usual (this is a big accomplishment for me), but I felt GREAT when I woke up.
Obviously at some point I am going to eat steak, french fries, pizza, and ice cream again. And obviously I am not going to go running every night indefinitely. But I think after this little diet I will have to set some guidelines for myself for regular habit. Because this feeling is just too good to only have when I am dieting…
Oh, and one more thing I discovered – A great apple can really make your morning.

did you eat fruit your first day… Like I said it was probably you blood sugar out of whack… :-> I’m glad to hear your doing so good, but you should try and stay away from french fries in the future… They are evil… I’m trying to stay away from all fried foods for a long long time…. But pizza and ice cream… I’m too weak… well as you know a person should exercise daily or at least 3 times a week… To keep a healthy weight…. It’s just hard most times to stay with it,when you get where you want to be… I’m just happy my body is going through the change of losing the weight and how happy I am that it has changed 😀
And what is that old saying”an apple a day keeps the doctors away”
only 2.5 pounds to go… Woo hoo
