Scale actually showed 121 today, but won't log it til it sticks, especially with the weekend upon me! But feeling great, proud that I was able to do the cleanse again & that it really got me back on track. Throughout the holidays, my birthday & the boys leaving, I had such mood swings. (I'd like to blame it on the damn menopause, but who knows?) The highs were great, but the lows felt awful & resulted in or were a result of sugar cravings & overeating sugar. Trying to figure out the longtime question -- which came first the chicken or the egg, i.e., which came first the bad mood or the sugar craving/overeating?
But, now that I'm feeling good again & my mind is way less foggy & stressed, my plan is to slowly add back the items I've been off of for the last 5 days -- meats/seafood/eggs, dairy & sugar -- and to journal how I feel as I add each back and if/when the sugar cravings return. I've been reading & researching about the effects of each & the best diets for people like me with sugar issues, but there is so much conflicting information out there, it started to drive me crazy as well & added to my stress/obsession/sugar problems. So, instead I'm going to do my own bit of research. I was never great at science, so it might not be scientifically sound & definitely will not be written up in any future science journals, but it may be the best way for me to figure out what will work for me over the long-term. And, that's what I come to realize I need -- an eating plan that I can live with long-term.
And, I'm beginning this day the way that has brought me such peace in the past - with the serenity prayer --
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
And, I'm praying, breathing, posting, logging & expressing again today for this one day, meal, moment, bite & emotion at a time! Thanks again to all of you for being here for me throughout this journey, even with all its twists, turns, u-turns, potholes, etc.! xoxox
