Day 2

I didn't feel like doing much, it's raining. I had intentions of going to the gym and excercising and sitting in the sauna but that fell by the wayside. I was alittle bluesy on Saturday. I ate very well I had my shake in the am, turkey burger with Kale and Garlic for lunch, a few cashews and strawberries for snack and a big salad with vinagrette and salmon fresh from the farmers market for dinner. I went out with some girlfriends and I drank muddled orange with mint leaves and soda water, it felt strange at first, I felt left out because I wasn't eating or drinking, although I was full....then they order a brownie sundae, didn't have any, i was proud of myself, I was trying to think and act like a healthy person and I felt that way. It is amazing how people are so gluttonous in there eating, it's gross. We then went out to a bar and they were all drinking and I was done for the night with drinking anything and I was having a good time, that is a first. People kept asking me why I wasn't drinking and I said I was doing a detox program and they said."oh, I am sorry"...why be sorry, I like it, I actually felt under control for the first time in my life...it was great.
I was a little hungry yesterday but i think it was because I was in the house all day not doing anything.
So I am done with Day 2 and now I am on Day 3...I didn't journal yesterday. My mood wasn't anything different really but my sugar cravings weren't much at all like they used to be....I know you are supposed to weigh yourself weekly but I am already down 3 lbs in two days. I am going to stay off the scale now, I needed to see if I was going in the right direction. Sometimes when I eat what seems to be more than I was at meal times with more fats etc. I have to make sure...and yep it is coming off. That makes me happy and so does this new found ability to be in control in these situations...I have a feeling this is going to be one of those things that changes my life and I am very happy about that. Until tomorrow...or the next day, journaling is hard for me to keep up with...but maybe this too will change my life so I am going to give it a shot. Ciao for now...
