Ok guys! This is how my first week played out.
The food is different for sure but overall it's pretty good. It does take alot of effort and time to prepare all the meals which can get pretty hard with the 3 kids. In fact I almost burnt dinner twice this week. I have just about mastered the "Surprise Potatoes", and getting the hang of what to eat and what not to.
However, I will admit that I did fail to sticking to it by Friday. I caved and had pizza that the boss brought in with a coke, and then I had donuts on Saturday. I can say though that I felt awful afterward. Not necessarily because of the guilt, but I actually physically felt bad. I felt bloated and sick at my stomach.
I can honestly say overall felt better while I was eating like I was supposed to. It made me physically feel better. I had more energy, I felt slimmer, and overall just felt good about myself. In fact I lost 2 pounds this week despite all the obstacles and frustrations of working out along with it. So I just proved to myself this week that I can do this, it does make me feel better, and if I just add the exercise with it I can boost the results I'll get. So I'm going to continue to stick to it. In fact, I'm gonna make sure everyone including the kids sticks to it. That way we all will cut down on the sugar.
I read somewhere and of course my mom has been telling me for years that you can control the hyperactivity in children through their diet, so I'm going to try this experiment on them as well to see what happens with them. I'll try to keep you posted on how it effects them as well.
I have realized this past week that it is really hard to post something every day, so I'm going to try to post something at least 2-3 times a week.
I can't wait to see what happens next week!
Until then,
Val
