Day 2 and Feelin' kinda Funky....

[deberaw]

Greetings all!!! Today is Day 2 for me and hubby on the 30 Day Challenge....and I'm just feeling off....spacey/sleepy...not quite with it...not really hungry...didn't really like the pasta alfredo, but made some of the delicious brocolli soup from Alissa's book...yummmy....and loved a fresh young coconut all blended with a little vanilla.....BUT, I'm wondering when I can expect to feel more like myself.....I kinda of remember this feeling when I was on South Beach, and it didn't really go away until I was off it....I'm a busy mom of 3, so I need to be with it.............Bit tough too, to be making food for kids that I am not eating....{and I made them tofu and rice with veggies!} I don't feel right about that....kids look up to parents for everything! But, we do do buffet styles of meals, so it's not to hard to have variety of foods....I'm committed to the 30 day challenge, and so proud of my hubby.....he's gone from meat eater to mostly vegetarian....and is trying this with me...as best he can....Deb in Kalamazoo

I know what you mean. I think you just need to be patient. Your body is adjusting and you've gotta get used to the new feelings I guess. What I'm trying to stay is stick with it and don't let the weird feelings freak you out, haha. In the first couple days of going raw for me, I get a little woozy and tired. But it does go away! :D

Oh, and also, I totally understand what you mean about it being difficult cooking for the kids and staying raw. I have 2 kids and though they're getting lots more fruits and veggies than before, I still have to cook meals and it makes it a little tough.

Thank you! I feel better today...I've been sleeping more soundly and that helps! Also, yesterday, my period came back after 2 years!!! that explains my sugar cravings last weekend! Ughhhh....I didn't miss the cramps etc., and I think the horomones didn't help either! My youngest is 12 1/2 months and still nursing....that helps with the horomones, but wow was I feeling hormonal yesterday!!! I'm sticking with it for 30 days and would love to after that, but I really struggle with feeding my kids food I'm not eating....we'll see....thanks again for the support! Deb

Hey there. Hang in there. It's detox you are going through. In no time you'll have loads of energy and sleep well. And everyone detoxes differently.
