The 2nd Week

My second week on my new eating journey has been so much easier than the first week. I am really starting to notice changes. The biggest change for me is waking up. I'm not dragging my feet like I used to when I would try and get up in the morning. I figure its because I wasn't sleeping very well at night. I used to toss and turn and couldnt get comfy. I am actually sleeping so well at night. I dont even know if I toss or turn. I havent slept this well since I took NyQuil months ago for a cold.

The next big thing I have noticed is my energy. I never have to nap, but if I want I can. I have enough energy all day long and I dont get sleepy or tired through the day like I used to. I would rely on caffeine to give me energy and it never would. I would have to nap to get some kind of rest and even then I would still wake up drowsy. This is a problem no more. I love it. I feel great!

My cravings are really gone. I would pass a McDonalds and want some fries or a drink, but I can pass it and really not even notice its existence. I have to say the only thing I really miss is my Starbucks drinks... and maybe sandwiches. Okay, and maybe I miss homemade chocolate chip cookies. But really that's it. I enjoy eating simply and I know exactly where my food comes from.

I haven't lost any more weight, but I feel thinner and lighter. Its a strange feeling.
