Review of days 22-31

• I’m not getting headaches anymore. I also notice when I’m hungry. I don’t just eat because the clock on the wall tells me to do so. I’m hungry. It’s really nice to feel this again.
• I’m not walking around all day tired, yet when we go to bed I fall asleep quickly and I stay asleep pretty much all night. I wake up before the alarm clock and think about all the things I’m going to accomplish that day.
• I’m a lightweight when I drink. I have to be really careful, because even a few sips of wine can make me a bit buzzy. Hey, I kinda like being a lightweight. It certainly is cheaper.
• My pants are getting longer. Well, not exactly. I’ve encountered this before. When you lose weight, the clothes aren’t as tight, and therefore skirts and pants seem to get longer.
• I have lots of energy. Energy to do things I haven’t wanted to do in awhile.
• I’m cold a lot more often. I need extra layers to keep warm. I used to be warm most of the time. I’m not sure what this means.
• Some other things I’ve learned: The husband doesn’t like quinoa (I think that’s just weird!). And, too many healthy days aren’t good for the husband, so I’m glad that I’m scheduling in the indulge days.
• I actually forgot to have a cup of coffee the other day! And, I went until 10 am before I noticed. What’s up with that? And yet, the only thing I’m craving is another cup of coffee. I want so badly to stop at the Starbucks at my grocery store when I walk past it. URG!
• We often aren’t eating the snacks because we’re too full.

Days 4-7 menus are here

The snack for day 6 (vanilla-date smoothie) was delish! I finished it before I took a photo. But, I would make and drink one of those anytime!
