cjiggetts Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Well I am on Day 8! Go me! I am going to start with this has been one of the hardest journey/decisions I have ever made. I started with sugar detox and had the worse headaches of my life. The headaches stopped yesterday at day 7. SO I am so thankful for that. Up until this point I have been tired, emotional, doubtful, mean, bitchy, impatient, just overall bratty and in a bad mood. IDK why. I have had the worse cravings and thinking about sugary treats everyday all day. But today I woke up and something was different. I just felt good. Every week day I go to work at my office desk job (I work HR for a mental health agency) and I am so bored! All day I don't have much work to do. This is a small agency with a little less than 300 employees but this job could be handled part time only. So I have been down because I sit here everyday so bored. But today I thought you know what be thankful for having a job, be thankful you are not doing manual labor in the cold for less $, Be thankful you are alive! I woke up with a new attitude and perspective. Is whole 30 to blame for this positivity or is it that that sugar cloud of funk in my life has been lifted from my soul??? Im not sure but I know I don't want this mood to leave. For the first time in months I can say nope Im not getting on the scale, nope I am not living in self-doubt anymore, nope I am not eating that crap (cupcake, chips, etc.). I hope I can finish out the entire 30 days and then some. I am loving how I feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
