im doing this great new way of eating and its working SO well for me at the moment. it started as a really mild detox as im breastfeeding and i havnt stopped. basically im not eating ANYTHING with an E number, chemical, anything that i dont recognise as a whole food. i can normally justify the odd bit of cake/ice cream/drink etc cause its only little and inside my daily allowance etc, but with this im limited to what i can actually allow myself. so im not sneaking chocolate cake etc. and i feel GREAT!!! amazing how much all that crap affects our bodies. its not like im saying no to the food i like, but to the numbers, preservatives etc in the food, its a different mind set!!
I have a bar of quality dark choc that i can have a square of, but i hid it at the very back of the garage under the house, its pretty spooky down there and i have to REALLY want it to go and get it, most the time the fear of spiders, snakes and the creapy people that live under my house win and the chocolate stays untouched!!!
And, i dont weigh or measure anymore. i have my 'gauge shorts' i would wear them when taking DD1 to her dance class on tuesday and a few weeks ago i couldnt do the button up!!!! now i can fit half my hand in the top!! so somethings working
