Day 14 of 100

Two weeks. 14 Days. 336 hours. Of discipline. Discipline is the force in life that enables you to accomplish far beyond what you imagined you could. Discipline is what enables me to go 100 days without sugar. But discipline in one area begins to bleed into other areas of your life, too. I am finding it easier to "hold off" in my finances. Not as many impulse buys. I am finding it easier to accomplish tasks at the office that I normally procrastinate over. No more putting off until tomorrow what I can do today.

And it pays. 6 lbs lost so far, and one inch off my waist, hips and bust. Don't get me wrong. I still stand in front of the mirror when I get out of the shower and ask myself, "Where is it I lost 6 lbs?" Because I can't noticably see it yet. But what will a 12 lbs loss look like in just a few weeks?

It is worth the wait. And the determination. And discipline only gets stronger with use.

Be strong!

  2. Hey,

    So good to hear from you. I think of you often. I am past the hard cravings part and moving forward in curiousity. Hearing about all the food at the fair this year was absolutely nauseating. I skipped.
