Cleanse

Ahh a new week, a new weigh in, and so much promise.  My last meeting I lost almost 2 pounds.  I'm almost out of the 190's and I'm so excited.  This Monday I started a cleanse to get me into the habit of eating more veggies and fruit.  Its only been three days but I'm really enjoying it.  The first two days I wound up with headaches and feeling quite grouchy.  I wanted my coffee and I wanted to crawl back in bed never to be seen again.  Yet I'm keeping it up.  I've been walking the lake, and spending my breaks walking up and down the stairs by my work. Yesterday I had the pleasure of walking the lake with my crush and while it was really awesome I went home feeling a little bummed.  The F word (friend) was dropped more than once just in case I didn't hear it the first time.  Yo, I get it!  I can have a crush on you and I assure you I am not the kind of lady to make any real kind of move, especially sober.  I can be your friend and be very happy with that. Anyway my point is the old me would use that as an excuse to go home and eat as many calories as possible till I felt sick.  Super self destructive.   Instead I went home accepted that nothing is going to happen aside from having a new friend, skyped with my awesome sisters, and had a chat about it with a friend on the phone.  It was a positive step that at the time seemed insignificant but later on today I had to give myself some serious props for it.      

  Exercise:  Today I went to the gym and did a little bit of running and fast walking on the treadmill.  It felt great to run to Sleighbells!  I highly recommend it.  The only problem I had was running in my vans, not so smart.  I also did the stairs for ten minutes at work.



Weekly Topic:  weight watchers topic for this week was getting something to help you achieve your WW goals.  I think doing this cleanse was a great choice for me.  I'm drinking more water, listening to my body, sleeping well, and eating lots of wholesome foods.  I really love eating vegan and I hope after I'm done the cleanse I keep it up.  I was thinking about how much cheese I would of consumed after three days and its kind of embarrassing how easy it is to get carried away with it at work.

Goal for next weigh in: 189!  Fingers crossed.
