Day 8a

Morning. It was kind of a blah start today, not a bad one but not great. Still feel deprived, but had ovaltine and a bran muffin for breakfast so it’s not like I’m starving myself lol. My moods have gotten better, as in more stable, but the anxiety still creeps in at times. I’m not…

Day 7p

Well….I was so good up till now… but something snapped in me tonight. There was a hunger I couldn’t take. And I did it. I had a small handful of dark chocolate m and ms and a few pretzels. And I didn’t gingerly savor them one at a time. I smashed them in my mouth…

Day 6p

Well today was a success! I took Advil around lunch time and, while it didn’t completely go away, made it so I could enjoy my daughter and cook. Hooray! So now I just need to get control on the middle of the day “I’d rather starve than eat that” phase. Tonight we had unsweetened applesauce,…

Day 6a

Good morning! Well, as predicted I awoke with no headache, although still really tired so I will strategically take some Advil around lunchtime to hopefully take care of a headache yet to come.  Someone mentioned to me that my cashew lunch was not the way to lose weight or purge from sugar, so in case…

Private Words

All of my other posts I share on my Facebook page. This one I’m not going to because it is highly personal. At the same time I think it’s something I need to share with anyone else who may benefit. At the beginning of these blogs, I said I had mental and emotional reasons for…

Day 4a

So, it’s Saturday, and I was able to sleep in, but because I am a parent, even when I’m alone I still wake up before it’s physically reasonable to do so. Woke with a headache, not sure if that’s due to the lack of sleep or the sugar withdraw, but I think the weather is…

Day 3p

I feel sorry for my food. I made this delicious dinner of a turkey burger, kale chips, and mashed cauliflower and as good as it was, it left me unsatisfied. My poor food! I am not appreciating it enough! It was delicious! But I hated it lol. All I wanted was a milkshake and fries….

Day 3a

Ugh, good morning? Have a slight headache today, super congested, and a little foggy. Not horrible, I am currently blaming the insane weather, not the lack of anything delicious in my tummy. This morning I had a bowl of Bran Flakes with honey and a small glass of Ovaltine (don’t knock it, it’s delicious). I…

Day 2p

I’m sitting in bed, finishing a small amount of popcorn, and my cat has decided to hijack my bowl. This means war. Actually the rest of the day went surprisingly well, even though I had no extra sweets! After some sugar free candy, and a sugar free tea, I’m ready for tomorrow! Hope springs eternal,…
