Able to leap tall building in a single bound!
So this diet is really starting to work for me. Since yesterday morning, I've just felt so great and have all this energy. It's wonderful. It's a good thing, though, because I was starting to get worried. I felt odd all last week, which I read is supposed to happen, but still. One day I felt like my blood sugar was too low...I couldn't concentrate and I just felt dizzy in the head. lol. Then there's the weird sensation of your stomach never actually getting that happy, full feeling. When you eat virtually no carbs, your stomach just feels odd. And my skin was really dry, so I was probably a little dehydrated. But anyway, I think my body has adjusted, and I just feel great! I'm almost afraid to move to Phase 2 next week, where you start adding carbs back. I don't want this energy to go away!
I've lost 5 pounds as of yesterday morning, so I'm hoping for a total of 10 when this week is up. The book says you should lose between 8 and 13 during the first phase.
Oh! So anyway...I was so full of energy last night, that I almost cleaned the whole house. I think Chris thought I had gone bonkers. I vacuumed the upstairs hall, stairs, and the downstairs; I cleaned the bathrooms, including scrubbing the tub and shower; I cleaned all the mirrors/glass tables; umm...gathered up and took out the garbage; cleaned the kids' two rooms; swept and scrubbed the bathroom floors; washed some pans from the kitchen sink; and did some other general picking up and putting away of things. It got too late to finish, so this morning I got up and swept and scrubbed the kitchen and entryway. The only thing left on my list is dusting, which I avoid at all costs, but will probably tackle tonight.
WEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!
