Day Twenty-Nine: Almost There! (and a Weigh-In)

Well, I’ve gotta say that I’ve never gone this long on any kind of diet, and I’ve never felt less deprived.  This has not felt like a diet, actually.  It’s felt like an unshackelling and a freeing from prison!  This has truly been an amazing month!  Probably the best of my life!  You know how when you accomplish something so amazing, it had challenges, but it was SO worth it?  That’s what this has been like.  I just can’t explain it.  You have to try it for yourself to know what I mean.  I’m just not good enough with words to tell you.  I don’t know that words CAN tell you.  SO much has come up for clearing, I feel so much happier, lighter — oh yes, I’m down to 211.4 pounds — and just … God, I wish I could explain it in words!

But since I cannot, let’s just get to the meat of the day — well, figuratively.  LOL

I had chocolate chips for breakfast after my water, then had a small salad for lunch with nutritional yeast, golden flaxmeal, my favorite vinaigrette (olive oil, apple cider vinegar, agave and Herby) on baby greens with shredded carrots, chopped red and orange bell pepper, plus a few raw olives for good measure.  SSOOOOOOOOooooooo delicious!!!  Dinner was chocolate-covered pecans, raisins and hemp seeds.  Again, delicious!  Somewhere in there, I think late at night, I had a big glass of grapefruit juice and a few kiwis.  Just started craving them.  Oh!  Had an apricot, too.  Very fruity day.

My thirst has really come up to a much higher level, and I’m really ready for water in the morning now.  I drink a lot throughout the day, too.  When my 30 days are up tomorrow, it isn’t the end of a journey, just really the end of making sure I’m getting chocolate every meal.  I’ll still eat it, of course, but I’m absoLUTEly not going back to cooked food!  No way, no how, uh-UH!!!
