barbaricyawn Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Hi everyone, In the midst of decided whether I should have my usual Wendy's breakfast sandwich with oatmeal bar AND juice AND coffee (mocha, duh) or just keep it simple with a donut and coffee (still mocha), I decided maybe starting today would be better than working on my apparent bucket list of degenerative diseases and early death. I had eggs and a green smoothie with coffee (black). !!! So, I'm one day off for the July challenge, but I'd like to still join in if that's okay. I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you and I can't wait to start feeling better. I actually already feel way better than I did last night. I guess eating clean starts working on your conscience first. Taking the "Before" stats and pictures tonight. Gross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derval Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Not gross just before! Have a great w30, you're going to feel SO much better without those sugary breakfasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Maryann Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Today is Day 30 for me. One of the biggest lessons for me was to listen to my body. After you strip away all the chemicals and unhealthy foods, you really start to hear your body ask for the things that nourish it. Yours just decided to start talking a day early. That's great. Bet of luck to you. The difference is amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milkshakable Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Awesome job, and welcome!! I'm new too. I totally get what you mean when you say it hits the conscience first -- totally true. It feels good to know we're doing something good for our bodies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbaricyawn Posted July 2, 2012 Author Share Posted July 2, 2012 Right! Somehow the mental lightness outdoes the physical difficulty of adjusting to a new way of eating. It's weird...when I eat clean I feel really empty inside. Not hungry, just...like I have a lot more space inside my body. It's a weird feeling, but good.
