Day 7: Just feeling better ...

Well it's Day 7 of the change but day 3 of the detox/cleanse and I got to say, I am pleasantly surprised with myself today. I have no cravings for sugar, caffeine or any types of food whatsoever yet the head is clear, today's progress is great and the guts are feeling fantastic.

I got to admit I was shocked to see how little I have eaten today but I can tell you; I am full and don't feel the need to binge feed any more. Green Tea and Honey has for the most part become my new staple after going from 6 cups of Coffee a day to 4-6 cups of tea down to 3-4 Green teas every day; like I said progress is good.


Today's Negatives:
  • The side effects of the detox/cleanse kicked in today which wasn't major. A little rundown and low on energy which resulted in a late-afternoon siesta but other than that feeling good.
  • To be honest, the sourdough toast isn't that good even with cheese and scrambled eggs. Will need to find an alternative FAST!
  • My sodium count is still unbelievably high which shows there's still work to be done
Today's Positives:
  • That sugar count - the lowest I've been all week - might count for the low energy but between the detox/cleanse and low amount of food I've eaten today; I'm not surprised
  • Even managed to go sub-2K on the calories after two bowls of Pasta with cheese sauce. Woohoo!
  • Finding some fantastic resources on YouTube - Holistic Habits and Dani Spies - Not that I'm much of a cook but if I take this health thing all the way, I well might be. 
  • Over the hump as far as the bad part of the detox/cleanse goes. Once I get through tomorrow, it's all downhill from here and given I start at 10am tomorrow, I get to sleep in. Bonus!
Anyway, that's me folks. Really loving the changes, looking forward to what happens next!
