I survived one week! It was interesting. Yeah, that’s what I’ll go with, interesting.
The Physical:
The only physical changes I really noticed were ones I would rather not discuss. To put it delicately, the issues that arise (or bottom out) when eating dairy and grain did not happen! Always a good thing in my book.
The Mental:
I felt fantastic the first two days, but was in a serious mental fog days 3-5. Almost everything I read said to anticipate this, so it wasn’t a surprise. By the end of the week, I was feeling more like myself, for better or worse. I did notice that the 3pm lethargic feeling did not hit.
What Went Well:
My family always has a menu plan and this helped me out. I was able to plan out my meals and know that I had the right stuff in the house.
What To Work On:
I can’t give up artificial sweetener in my coffee. I can substitute coconut milk for cream, but I must have something sweet in my coffee. Also, I need to find something for breakfast other than scrambled eggs.
The Numbers:
Weight = -2.9lbs; Body Fat % = -.7%
Because it’s always fun to get comments ON the blog page too. 😉
With my own eating/dieting/whatever you want to call it 30 day challenges, the first 5 days were always good, then several days of no energy/couldn’t think straight until I figured out a workable system. Good luck!! I’m cheering for you! FWIW
