Day 8 of 100

It is really kind of amazing how many body systems are effected by sugar in my diet. Or now, by the lack of it in my diet. Menstral cramps have all but disappeared. My eyes are focusing clearly and the blurriness I was experiencing is gone. I thought maybe my prescription for my glasses was wrong, but since changing my diet my eyes are focusing much better. I have not had a headache once this week. I was having them every day previous to getting off sugar. I have also struggled for a long time with my eyes watering excessively. They have not watered at all this week.

I also noticed today that my conversations with my husband are livelier and quicker and more interesting. I think this is for several reasons. My mind is more alert, I am remembering things more easily and I am really excited about the changes I am making. We have laughed alot more this week than we normally do and I feel really happy tonight.

We went to a favorite restaurant of ours tonight and I had to totally re-evaluate the menu. My top three picks for an entree were prepared with sugar. But it was not hard to find something else I could enjoy. So I am trying new things. Trying new things keeps you young!

I am REALLY motivated to stick with this. Already, what I am gaining already far outweighs what I have given up. And I still have 92 more days of discovery left!
