Today I am not talking about what I ate, it was nothing amazing. Instead, I would rather share with you how I have been feeling. First, I have noticed so far with my diet change is that I am less tired. I have not had the mid -afternoon crash that I normally feel. Usually by 2:00 in the afternoon I have all I can do to keep awake. I then usually drink a soda or have some sort of "boost" to get me through until dinner time. I was told that I can still have coffee but to limit my intake to one cup a day. I have never been a more than one cup of coffee gal. I have been drinking a cup of coffee in the morning but I don't really seem to need it. So, getting through the day without feeling like I need a nap is an amazing and exciting change.
The second change, is weird to me and again it is about how I feel. This evening I told my husband that he was going to think that I am crazy but I have been having this uncontrollable feeling as if I have forgotten something. Do you know the feeling that you get when you forget to put on your wedding band or another piece of jewelry like a watch? You feel "weird" until you put the item on again. I have been feeling that way but to me the feeling is in my arms. It is similar to the feeling you get when you carry something heavy and then you put it down. Your arms feel lighter and free. So, mentally I have the sensation that I have forgotten something. Physically my arms feel lighter as if I have put down something heavy that I have been hauling around forever. I wonder if anyone else has had weird physical sensations when going on a dietary cleanse. I would love to know! Share your comments and thoughts if you like!
