Day 48

Haven' written for a bit but all's good!
My eating is transforming and so is my physical appearance. I've lost over one and half a stone and I feel like this is the way I basically want to eat for the rest of my life. I have been struggling with this for soooo long and I finally feel things are changing. It's been a very tough few years but things are definitely shifting in all areas and I really feel proud of myself in how I've dealt with things. It's not what happens to you but how you deal with it that makes you who you are and I've had a lot to deal with, which is why my eating got so difficult and the weight started piling on. I've averted a disaster as far as my health is concerned too...it was like a time bomb ready to go off anytime soon.
We went to Zoo yesterday with Jakes little friend and had a wonderful time. We saw tigers close up in the new Tiger Territory, languid lions dozing in the sunshine, frolicking zebras, majestic giraffes, snuffling hogs, lounging lizards, crazy monkeys and beautiful parrots and peacocks...oh it was wonderful and the boys loved it. I wasn't too well as have had quite a bad chest infection for the last few days, heaven knows why? But I was so excited about taking the boys to the zoo, I hardly noticed it. Just about to eat some raw garlic and have been drinking hot lemon juice so that should cure it as I don't like to go on antibiotics if I can help it. I'm watching my temperature which has been fine but that is the only circumstance in which I would go on the anti's, same for my son.
Gosh, I've just eaten the two cloves of raw garlic and I'm not sure if I 'm going to be able to keep them down, this should cure.
I made a nice juice yesterday and added another super-powder called Spirulina that I bought a few days ago. Very nice.

                                                         

Day 36

Well things are going well. I seem to have changed something as my attitude to food has transformed. There have been biscuits and temptations all around but it is just not a problem for me. My body is changing and I feel really good. I've lost over a stone and I think I'M slowly clearing out my system. Here is another juice idea if you want to try it:

                                                         'Everything's Peachy

handful of white grapes
Spinach
4 carrots
2 oranges
1 Granny Smith apple
2 peaches
1 avocado
Handful of strawberries
Teaspoon of maca
Teaspoon of wheat germ

Day 29

The past week has been a big struggle as I have been so tempted to eat all the things I shouldn't. I even rang up my husband at work a couple of days ago saying that I was really tempted to eat biscuits etc. So he really encouraged me and I somehow managed to not relent. I actually ended up realising that something else was making me sad and upset and I was trying to use the food to make me feel better. But I worked through it and once I'd realised that I was really upset about something and looked at that and tried to work through that I didn't feel the need to eat the wrong stuff. But it really paid off and I felt so happy when I weighed myself the next morning. I'm really making headway and it's very encouraging.
