Stopping Sugar day 7 to 14 - you talking to me?

Stopping Sugar day 7 to 14 – “you talking to me?”

 

Stopping Sugar day 7 to 14 … is the safe title … I wanted to call this “thinking of murder” but I thought I might scare somebody! 

I am finally starting to feel normal again.  Week 2 or day 7 to 14 of no sugar was terrible.  Here is my diary.

 

The week was OK food wise.  My cravings were gone and I didn’t feel like chocolate or anything else.  But mentally things were going astray.

Day 7 – I am so ashamed to actually admit this.  But I am happy my hubby stopped reading my blog a long time ago as I was googling how to kill him!  I know it sounds terrible but I was so over-sensitive and frustrated.  More than that I just was passive aggressive and it was awful.  I felt myself saying and thinking things that just weren’t me.

 

Food:  Still not stopped sugar completely but tried to keep under 15 grams.  This failed as I didn’t realise that lemon water was full of carbs!

 

Day 8 -  Vibrant dreams.  Spent 3 hours in the gym but felt great afterwards

Food:  For the first time I wasn’t binging after the gym.  I made sure I ate protein straight after but had a delicious banana and 2 huge portions of Kholrabi to keep my fibre up.

 

Day 9 – So tired and fed up. 

Food: Best food day kept sugar time to the lowest ever.  Feelings of murder still there but not as bad.

 

Day 10 – OMG.  Woke up feeling great.  Couldn’t believe it when I got on the scales.  For the first time in 10 days minimum weight loss.  But WEIGHTLOSS - - unbelievable.  It was shocking.  I thought I would run naked through our garden!  

 

Food – Another great protein rich day (basically copied everything I ate yesterday lots of peas and chicken and salad) with my new flax seed home made biscuits.  

 

Day 11 – More weight loss.  Feeling the best ever and my skin looks great and I am sweating up a storm!!!

Food:  Not the best day as I couldn’t do any sport and worked the whole day.   So I had a few too many nuts snacking. 

 

Day 12 – No weight loss.  But still happy

Food:  Very bad day.  Not sure why.   Kept the sugar low but overdosed on Fat.  65% of my daily average.  I know it was bad –but at least it wasn’t sugar!  The problem is nuts… and olive oil.  I love them both.

 

Day 13 – Out all day no exercise and surrounded by bad food.  But didn’t get tempted.  However, I did have two bananas which blew my sugar count.

Food:  Bananas and lack of fibre as I was out all day.  Hard to find good food for me, on the road.   Main diet was grilled cheese and flax seed biscuits.

 

Day 14- So far so good today.  A little tired but very hot and sweaty.  Completed myfitnesspal.com – please friend me if you want to see my exact weight story.   Maybe too much info ….but going to the toilet a lot… lot more than regulary!

No weight loss since Day 10 – but I have a feeling there will be some tomorrow.

Food:  Started the day with a 3 egg omelette and have even thought about food.  So no lunch yet.
