Days 11, 12 & 13
WOW! Is time just flying by or what!!!! I have finished days 11, 12, & 13! Sunday (day 11) was just an amazing day! I was actually able to stop myself from thinking of all of the things I had to catch up on and had to get done before work on Monday and enjoy a few hours at the beach reading my new book: PUSH, by Chalene Johnson. If you feel like you never have the time, or just can't get yourself organized, on task and on schedule, you MUST pick up a copy of this book or join her online 30 Day PUSH Challenge!! It is totally awesome! She is so inspirational and her challenge and book help you break down your priorities and make sure those priorities and goals are where you are investing your time. Did you say WHAT TIME? Well, basically you have to MAKE time, SCHEDULE it. If you SCHEDULE it, it will get done, if you put it on your to-do list, it will get done.
Anyway, off that mini-tangent for now :) SO, Sunday..... a great day! I was feeling fantastic! We went to church and then headed straight for the beach; taking our 2nd round of supplements and chugging our detox while we changed into our suits...only to realize I forgot my bottoms! Thank God for my roommate who for some reason brought and extra suit! LOL! Needless to say, I didn't match, but wow that time was awesome! I was focused, determined and clear headed w/ no worries about the upcoming week! I had a feeling of peace as I read my book and soaked up the sun's vitamin D.
Monday (Day 12)...Oh Monday was another one of "those" days. It was a hard day for me. I was feeling great and positive and in a way that NOTHING was going to bring me down, but then I started craving cookies and chocolate! OMG!!! What was this feeling coming over me!? Maybe it was b/c I knew that in my cabinet, there were some yummy Oreos and a bunch of other cookies that my students brought for our holiday party, oh and some Hershey Kisses too. Well, I had to do something about this b/c this craving was STRONG! I knew that I had to start giving these out to the kids ASAP. I started handing them out to my students at the end of the day, brought the for my kiddos at tutoring after school and handed them out again Tuesday (day 13). OOOHHHHH the temptation. I was thinking maybe I would be satisfied if may I just LICKED the cookie and then threw it away, and then realized IF I can make it through this, I can make it through ANYTHING! Well, I did. Two straight days of giving out cookies...sorry parents, but they have got to go! And I still have more! Hopefully today I will see the last of them.
As far as my stomach is concerned. I have been feeling pretty good. I feel much more regular and don't have those constant feelings as though someone or something is going to war in my stomach! The last 3 days have been full of yummy fresh fruits and veggies and also my midday snack of Chocolate or tropical Vegan Shakeology. The "Shake-O" really gets me going in the afternoons and gives me such a boost that many of my walks are turning into jogs because of have such a crazy amount of energy! The foods are delicious and completely agree with not only by stomach but my mind and mood as well!!! My mood....it's been...well, AMAZING! No coffee, no chocolate, no cookies...all of these things that I used to think were mood enhancers...I THINK NOT. NO WAY! NOT ANYMORE.
