WOW! WHAT A WEEK! Friday marks the end of the second week that I have been primal. This week was a lot easier than the first in many ways... It is starting to become habitual to eat primal, which is good. I am replacing old terrible bad habits with good habits. Not to say that I don't have my moments where I want to grab the bag of Cheetos, but I have found more often when I get that snacky feeling I start thinking about avocado and string cheese.
I can definitely tell that my body is changing (in more ways than one). I went off the rocker and ate potato salad yesterday, and then had a couple cocktails with friends and OH MY GOD my stomach hurt SO bad. It was the worse idea that I have had in a while. I not only felt mentally guilty for cheating, but my body was pissed. It amazes me though, that my body has adjusted so much so soon. I used to be able to eat EVERYTHING... nothing bothered me, but now, carbs my former love make me feel like crap (probably because they are crap for you)....but I think I needed to learn this lesson. It definitely makes the idea of cheating less appealing.... I HATE tummy aches and that is all that comes from cheating. It is only tasty for a heart beat, stomach aches last for hours....
This week I start school... I am convinced they are trying to kill me with the schedule. But I have been working on snacks (cutting up veggies, hard boiling eggs, avocados, gonna make some CAVE MAN CRUNCH in a little while, gonna pre zip lock some nuts ) and I think in some ways it will make school a lot easier when it comes to food. I will have everything pre done and there, so I wont be tempted to waste money on fast food, and I will feel better... I am also setting it as my goal to maintain a decent level of sleep this semester. I let that go last semester and I really suffered from it, mentally and physically.... I am anxious and excited for a new semester.. I feel like it will flow nicely with my fresh start in life.....
OKAY!!!!! Time for the weekley stats since this is my technical end of week post.
This week I LOST (drum roll please...) 5 POUNDS!!!! which brings the grand total to 8 pounds. No, it isnt a lot, and yes I have a long way to go...but with ever pound that dissapears, I become more confident in the Primal life and that I am finally doing something right when it comes to my health....
SO here is to a new week (week 3, which is the final week of my "transformation"), new adventures, and the 49ers kicking the giants butt in a couple hours!
