Wow, I am seriously shocked. I MADE IT. I didn't have one bite of processed sugar for a week and it was...exhausting, man, seriously. I admit, this morning since the thing was over I caved and ate some chocolate covered edamame beans but yanno, I think this was a good thing to do. I think I can resist the urge to eat processed sugar now. I can definitely eat healthier for sure, especially after seeing that literally just after a week of eating this way, I dropped a lot of water weight. :0
Even within the first week I felt so much better once I got over the PMS-y feelings that came with not eating the processed sugars. It was psychological I swear. I even almost started crying on the street for no good reason whatsoever. WTF? Scary crap, man, scary crap.
Temptation was hard to resist, especially at college life--free ice cream at the housing fair, soda at the movie nights, friends going "omnomnom chocolate", etc. I seriously was ready to smack some of them upside the head, to be honest. -___-;;
But for all the friends I got mad at, there were the awesome ones who were supportive of me. Thanks guys. Here I am a week later and I feel like, that YES, I can eat healthier now.
Next food challenge in the coming months? The bread/pasta one, or at least I'll try to. I told one of my friends that I'd help her by participating in Passover with her. Good luck to us, methinks. :B
