Up and down. And have been cheating! Sorry, Masha, but I will clean up my act. From now on – no cheating! That raw chocolate was good once but unnecessary later. I might be not ready for that strong stuff yet. Also, my allergies came back with a super itchy skin.
There have been developments too. I am cooking home a lot which is the key to success. A resolution is to have not more than 2 meals out per week. That’s it. I feel satisfied cooking at home and enjoying my meals. I am not bored, I don’t feel stressed out with food anymore. And I get to use our beautiful dining table now. J Simple pleasures! But life and happiness really consist of them.
Also, a good progress with sport. Had an absolutely amazing beach run/walk on a sunny Monday morning (a holiday). That pure feeling of happiness and connectedness with nature was not possible for me for a while. My Granny reminded me that I loved running when I was little and I remember it now so well. So I am back into running and loving it again. City college, or beach, or my neighborhood – lots of options to suit my schedule! Played tennis with my friend and will try to keep playing at least once a week.
No sauna or hot bath recently, so need to work on that.
Discovery: I realized that it’s much better to cheat and stay on diet vs. get of diet to plan a perfect start. I always do the most damage when I do the latter. So, yes, I will clean up my act, but I still feel good about my progress.

I did clean up my act, no more cheating, but boy oh boy I feel tired! And I have no idea why – am I detoxing? Paying for my recent cheatings? Tired from daily exercise? Tired of some supplement? Ovulating? All of these? I guess all I can do is to keep going and wait till it passes.
The only time I felt truly amazing (physically that is, emotionally I feel good all the time now), was last night taking a 1 hour warm bath. I started hot, seating there, and then made it warm and laid down. God, it felt great! And all those great ideas started rushing into my head.

I don’t know what they put into that green powder but I feel like a bunny energizer this morning! Which is very nice after dragging my feet for the last couple of days. I should definitely drink this magic shake every single morning. Hopefully there is no caffeine… That would suck because I am trying to kick my caffeine habit and heal my adrenals.
What else contributed to me feeling great this morning, besides the green drink? I went to bed very early last night, at 9 pm. And I didn’t cheat with caffeine and sugar. Nothing motivates you more than seeing the fruits of your efforts. I don’t crave anything and I am really enjoying my breakfast which is buckwheat with vegetables. Such simple food, but it makes such a difference!
