Since starting this journey of 100 days without sugar, alot of good things have happened. It has not truly been 100 days totally without sugar, since I have had moments of indulgence. But it has been a period of clearing my system of sugar and then observing sugar's effects on me when I decided to eat it. Mostly I have been without.
I have lost 10 pounds. I am sleeping at night again. My abdomen does not ache anymore. A cravenous thought rarely ever crosses my mind. My bowels are regular. I no longer feel the need for a nap midday. My skin looks and feels better. I don't feel bloated anymore.
But the most important thing of all to me is this: I CARE ABOUT BEING HEALTY AGAIN! It has become a priority for me. I realized through these 82 days so far that little steps can effect big change. I have had a shift in my thinking. I can slowly move myself towards better health by adding or subtracting one thing at a time. I don't have to be in a hurry. And the sky is the limit. It doesn't take all or nothing to gain your health back.
And for the first new year in a long time my resolution isn't to lose weight, because it isn't about what I will accomplish this year. I have resolved to get my physical world in order. And that is my choice for the rest of my lifetime. Change of course, new plan of action, good things ahead!
