Day 9

Rate this Entry
Still up and running at 5:30 am which has really been great. I am finding that although I am more tired in the evening, I am actually waking up around 4am. I try to be in bed by 10pm to read or sleep. I am waking up alot during the night too, and I am not sure what is causing that. I am finally feeling AWAKE though when I do get up in the am, which is quite a change from what I used to feel!

I ended up getting rid of all the left over 'temptations' from Easter, with the exception of the candy because I can honestly say I don't want it! There is a bowl of jelly beans on the counter, and I haven't devoured it! Unheard of in the past. Could this mean my sugar addiction is over? I thought that would NEVER happen. Even during PMS I noticed I was craving the fudge balls, and 'goddess' bars and not candy. WooHoo! This is HUGE for me. I have never been able to go very long without some sort of candy. It was truely my 'drug of choice'. Now if I could just get over the coffee, lol. That IS a choice, albeit not a wise one. I know I do not NEED coffee and can go without it. But, in my defense I do drink organic fair trade...

Yesterday I ate:
goddess bar
large spinach and lettuce salad
chai with almond milk
raw carrot soup (delish!!!)
couple of flax crackers
3 fudge balls
just shy of 1l of water
grapefruit juice
