Notes to self:
Another reason to shed weight...makes shaving easier! Today I MUST make the effort and work on school work, my deadlines are approaching fast and I really dont know how I will finish...I just havent cared about it at all lately . I guess I have been so focused on me and this plan, but ya know...I deserve it! I am never selfish and have always put everyone last, thats a big reason why I am this weight now. I wish it would warm up so the pool water isnt so cold, I hate exercising and swimming is the only way I can see myself doing any exercise at all.

FOOD NOTES- Feel like I overdid it on the protein today...wayyy to many meatballs but I was feeling a bit deprived and craving badly, eating the extra protein did help, but I think it put me way over my calorie allowance.

DAILY ACHIEVEMENT-I did manage to go the grocery store during my bad cravings and NOT give in, I am super proud of that, that took mega willpower. So to reward myself I got supplies to color my hair

SETBACKS- Smoked 2 cigarettes today, the first in 4 days. Didn't get any exercise in It rained off and on all day and its still too cold in the pool.

Thanks for stopping in!

I was a little iffy when I first looked at what was required in the Fat Flush, but as I read the book I realized so much about my body. Everything it talked about I related to, and I knew that if I wanted to feel better, I had to first start with healing my body, cleansing it of all the gunk I have put it through in the last 27 years. For me, it hasnt been all that bad but it can be difficult...as with any plan I suppose. If you ever decide to try it let me know, always looking for Flushing buddies!

Let's just call today a do-over day

I did great all except for about 20 minutes, then a had a lapse of control And now I feel sick I need to remember this for this next time I think of giving in.

Correction, I did get sick. Within a few minutes a felt so bloated that stuff that I binged on came right back up I will definitely never do that again!

I did my LLC tonight, trying to just move past it.
