this is fun
so, I'm nearing the end of day 5. This is by far the best day. After my, ahem, morning, I've had the most amazing energy all day. I even taught like a master :) Day 1 was also fine. Days 2-4 were pretty rough, though. Very low energy, sore bum, etc. I'm assuming that from now on it will all be a breeze, ha. I'm even considering working out tomorrow. If I feel as good as I did today, I don't see why not. I weighed myself on my parent's scale today (I don't have one) and I only lost about 2 lbs, haha. That be why this is not a weigh-loss program for me!
My funny anecdote about cravings: My first craving came on day 1. I craved a really greasy cheeseburger. (sign of low health, ha). day 2. I craved simply a baked potato! Since then, my cravings have really gone in the right direction. I had a serious craving for chickpeas, and now I'm looking forward to incorporating them into more of my meals from now on! So yummy, and such a good source of protein for someone who doesn't consume enough protein! More hilarious is how now I crave any food I SEE. for instance, someone's LJ I was reading had their icon as a Saltine Cracker. My mouth salivated. For a FUCKING SALTINE CRACKER. I LOLed at myself.
So I'm over the hump. Halfway to go. And on Friday I can eat veggie soup! yummmm!!!
