Week One

I can't believe today ends week one on this crazy new journey that I have decided to encounter. It's crazy because I'm a meat eater I love a good steak but more than that I am a sugar and flour addict, so this is a requirement in another area besides the meat it's getting rid of the other things that I feel have made me fat in the past.

I need to explain to start this off I am making some drastic changes, first of all I started out at 253 and I needed to see myself back in the 240's so I did a drastic detox (well drastic in my eyes). My first week I spent the majority of my food bank in vegetables and fruit, nothing processed, no added sweeteners and such ( to my best effort). However, I failed a bit, I ate turkey (from a homemade turkey soup) and a few pieces of mushy noodle left in the soup. I tried to strain as much as I could but I know I still ate it, as well as I ate white rice yesterday, none of that is included so I can't say I had a completely successful week. I did however, discover something amazing about my body, as I ate more whole foods and so much less processed my body let me know the things it liked and didn't like. My body also eliminated that which it didn't like much more quickly than ever, I also discovered a greater need for water than ever before. I will weigh in tomorrow which will start week 2 and will let us know where I landed after a full week of eating a much more clean diet.

I will also be incorporating a much more strict regimen when it comes to the foods I over eat on. I am excited to start a new week.
