I am writing this Wednesday morning because let me be honest with you here, yesterday was a hard day. I normally like to recap my day that night and then edit in the morning and post, I was not getting this blog down last night.
I stuck to my plan, but yesterday I didn't want to. I was in a terrible mood and had a rotten headache the whole day. I think I may have felt worse yesterday then I did on my 3rd day of quitting smoking.
I drank my water and exercised quite a bit but honestly it didn't do much to curb what I was feeling. If it had a major effect and I was unaware I can't imagine what I would have looked like without them.
I will say that this morning I feel a small sense of accomplishment having made it through it. But honestly yesterday was terrible. I am trying so hard to make these changes but I can see clearly now that it won't be with out struggles and I feel fairly certain at some point I will slip up.
I stuck with lemon water in the morning and skipped my cup of coffee. Clearly I have gone absolutely insane to attempt that right along side everything else I am doing but those of you who know me, know that anything I do I do BIG! That being said I don't really have the stones to do caffeine and sugar at the same time, so this morning I am having my 3 quarters to a cup of black coffee. It is one of the few things that makes me feel normal. Besides a half to one cup of black coffee is not the worst thing in the world.
I can tell you one thing that is close to one of the worst things in the world. I made the mistake of going grocery shopping without a list while hungry! Not a good idea, I was roaming those isles almost in a trance. It seemed truly impossible to pick foods that had not been prepackaged. It was so bad that I did not in anyway complete my shopping. I found a quick meal for George and the kids and decided on reheated soup for myself I grabbed some cashews and was on my way! I will be back there again today, this time with list in hand and right after my breakfast!
I have been sticking to the exercise, but may need to spend a little more time with my calm app. given my mood yesterday. I am truly hoping today is a better day.
Progress: Made it, stumbling the whole way, through another day without processed food.
Notes: learned a valuable lesson about shopping during the early phases of cutting something out of your diet
