Day 2: Hunger Games

Day two commenced with kitchen sink eggs and for lunch was hash with mustard greens. Breakfast was ok, I was starting to get sick of eggs. I stomached them down, and even though they had tons of flavor, I was a little nauseous from them. Not sure why.

Lunch was yummy, however I was also getting tired of the hash. I think it was the ACV (apple cider vinegar) in it and the fact that I'm not a huge fan of cooked apples that did me in. I probably won't be making that for awhile.

Dinner I had a snack of what I made for the following 2 days-root vegetables in a curry sauce. OH MAN. I just love the curry sauce. It is dynamic.

During the day I try to pay attention to my body, and how it used to feel vs now and any changes I notice. So far I felt less inflamed already, which I felt was odd that I would notice that so quickly. I mean, it's just day 2, can't we get to know each other before the changes happen? I guess my body really needed a break from all the crap. I felt a bit more energy than I normally do on a day to day basis, I was enjoying the flavors of all that I was eating and I am still strong about the sugar cravings.

Mostly.

At work we sit at half cubicles and the girl next to me was eating some sort of bite size cookies. I found myself wanting some. Once I start something like staying away I really try not to disappoint myself by caving on day 2. I reminded myself why I am doing this and I regained my strength. *Phew*

There were a few things I noticed started happening. My hunger  between meals is more frequent. I'm not sure if that is a good or bad thing, but I try to refrain from eating snacks. I'm contemplating grabbing some approved granola bars in case of dire emergency, but I feel like I might eat those when I feel hungry instead of, "oh crap we're not at home and I don't want to eat out" situation. (Insight welcome)

We'll see what day 3 brings.
