Day 2 - carbless

Feeling really great. This is why I eat right, I feel better, DUH! Reminding myself of this is always my biggest struggle. Remembering that when I put healthy things into my body I feel so much better..healthy, energetic, I wake up easier in the morning, that skinnier feeling even though you haven't lost any weight.

I made sure to go bed early so I could get up and walk/jog this morning. Josiah had his longest night of sleep (WOOHOO) from 9:30-5. I got up and fed him and figured since I was up, I might as well get on with my exercise instead of going back to bed for 30 mins. I walked/jogged 2 miles. The air was cool and it felt great...despite my sore knees, pain in my side and no ipod! But I did it and am already sore! I had a about 30 extra minutes of time this morning so there was no rushing around getting everyone ready. I plan to do the same tomorrow. Although 5am is REALLY EARLY...I like the way I feel right now.

I made it with no soda and no dessert last night. I will say the no dessert was hard. I kept thinking of things I wanted...trying to justify them, but managed to battle through and not have anything. I got some feta cheese to add with spinach and brown rice for dinner this week and as I was packing my lunch I thought mmm that would be good with some grapes. So that's what I had for breakfast on my way to work. feta cheese and grapes! Yum it was tasty!

I have decided to do every other day with no carbs just to help kick my body into gear a bit faster, so today is no carb (besides fruit)

so here's to day 2!!
