Giggle

I have to say...I really miss my husband & am glad he's coming home on Friday.  He's been gone a month & was only supposed to be gone a little over two weeks.  One of the things I love about him is his ability to make me laugh.  Well, he makes everyone laugh, but I get to laugh every day all the time.  His sense of humor is so wicked & so smart!  Giggle...I love laughing, one time when I was working out with my trainer we started laughing right when we were about to do abs & we laughed, and laughed, and laughed & didn't need to do abs after all.  I do believe laughter makes the world go around.

Ok....that was my random thought for the day.  Anyway, back to why I started writing again.  Weight loss journey!!!!  I am getting SUPER HUNGRY at night.  I am beginning to wonder if I am not eating enough.  My guess is yes.  Mainly because I should be satiated and not ready to climb the walls.  It's funny because I will start to day dream about junk food, but I won't act on it.  Today is cheat meal day & I got hot dogs & fries.  I KNOW RIGHT?!?!?!  But, I still believe in indulging...Actually, it's more like a reward.  Anyway, I am not going to worry about.  I save my cravings for cheat day & indulge in a cheat meal!  No cheat days, just one meal.  Hopefully, I'll be able to move away from cheat meals altogether.

Updates:

I won't weigh in until Friday, but there are some things I am noticing.  For one, the body odor is back.  I'm not sure if it's detox or if it's that I haven't been eating as much.  It's weird because I stopped eating junk, but then I kind of stopped eating a lot overall.  Great...all I need is to become anorexic.  I am having a love hate relationship with my green drink.  I was gung ho about my green drinks, but now I am kind of over them.  So now what?  I'm having coffee with a good friend of mine tomorrow who loves vegetables, so I am going to pick her brain on how she eats them. 

Green tea is awesome.  I thought I'd have horrible withdrawals just drinking green tea, but I literally only need one cup to get me through the day. 

Well...I guess that's it for now.  I need to get busy around my house - want to spruce it up for when my man gets home!

Love to you all!!!

What day is it?

Still getting that weird metallic taste in my mouth which in turn is still making me nauseous.  I hope this passes soon.  Also, the ringing in my ears is non-stop.  I've always had it, but it seems to be worsening...I am truly hoping that it has to do with detox.

I did ok today with food.  I am addicted to carbs, so I had 4 slices of rice bread (but I swear they are TINY).  I did finally get my green drink down.  But that's also funny because normally I can suck those down with no problem, but it's like my intestines are so full that any bite or drink fills me up instantly & then I have to go to the bathroom.  Whatev.

I did hop on my treadmill for half an hour & that felt good.  I am enjoying sweating it out!  Nothing too exciting going on.  I miss my husband, he'll be home in 4 days!  Yippee-there will probably be a lot of celebrating!!

Might I add that my hunger cravings shoot through the roof at night?  I think that is telling me that I need to eat more!

Til next time

K I S S

Has anyone ever said to you - Keep It Simple Stupid?  Yeah...I think that's what life is all about.  KISS. 

I am not sure what's going on, but I think my detox is going through some strange twists.  For the past two days, I've been super nauseous & sleeping a lot.  I usually sleep a lot when I start to withdraw from the normal junk foods.  But the nausea I think is induced by the gluten free cereals.  They have sugar & now it's making me sick!  Blech....In my defense, my bananas are just now getting ripe.  Ok, that's not an excuse.  I did eat a few peaches today and then had two pieces of rice bread with swiss cheese (not vegan) & tomato.  I wanted something to sink my teeth into, ya know? 

I haven't exercised today or yesterday, but I am ok with that.  I am just listening to my body.  One of my other many guesses is that I also haven't had a lot of caffeine today.  I had some green tea, but no regular iced tea.  Uuuhhh...It's hard to type, I feel icky & want to go back to sleep. 

So tomorrow is a new day...

Hugs!
