Day Three

Good news to report today.  Made a little stoppey-stop at my doctors' office today to weigh myself, and had lost two pounds!  Melissa B. says a pound a day is pretty typical for the first week.  I am being about 95% hard on myself, as far as cheating goes, and if I could sum up the whole process so far in one word, it would be self-control.  That's really what ALL bad eating habits boil down to.  And if I could add another one, it would be moderation.  We all need a vice or two here and there.  But how immoderate are you with it?  My ice cream once a week had turned into every night (in the winter, especially), and if  we are honest with ourselves, do we really  feel good after eating ice cream?  Negatory.

My darling cousin Shena and I had an awesome talk about veganism while she was visiting last week, and how everything you eat is real actual food, and you feel great after eating it.  Added much perspective to my detox, and I'm glad to have had it.  More on that perhaps later.....hubby is waiting for me to watch a movie, which I will enjoy whilst sipping green tea, WITH caffeine.

Adios.
