- I am sleeping wayyyyy better. I am going to bed at a decent time. This is not by choice but my body physically closes my eyes, lol. I used to stay up until midnight and this week most days were around 10:30-11:00. I am not waking to go to the bathroom at night. I am sleeping a full night which hasn't happened in a long time.
- I am no longer napping during the day with the kids. I am so wide awake that I couldn't even imagine napping.
- I am trying to adjust to fueling my body before workouts. I really feel the energy but once I started on some days I felt a little sluggish and unable to fully do what I needed to do without a break.
- One downfall that I have noticed is that I am still pretty irritable. I don't know if it's because I am missing certain comfort foods (bread) or if I am just bitter about other things.
- I feel like the kids are having to keep up with me now. I am more active with them. Most days we go to the park twice. Then the rest of the time we are playing and running around.
Overall, I really think this diet is working for me. I say diet but should be saying lifestyle change. I really was to stick with this forever. I will have my occasional cheat meals but that's ok. My friend sent me something that said "I needed to focus on how far I've come, not how far I have to go." I need to keep that in mind. :) Take care all!
You are doing wonderful, Kimberly. So glad you are seeing some great results!
