I did fairly well over the weekend but I did indulge quite a few times so I felt it would be easier just to start over on my fast.
On Friday, my original day 1, I got home from work and caved and had a sandwich and then some chips and animal crackers lol. I had been craving carbs something fierce, specifically pasta, and managed to settle on a sandwich and some chips, of course after having something salty you want something a little sweet right? Hence, the animal crackers. Good grief!
Saturday, I did well, I went to the baby shower and they had a very healthy spread. I had some carrots and some fruit, a little bit of tea sweetened with strawberries. I had a cupcake and some pretzel chips but that was all. I went to a smoker party that evening and had a little bit of a fajita and several margaritas and a piece of cheesecake. DOH! It was TOTALLY worth it though. Sunday and Monday weren't too bad either but I still had my occasional indulgences.
So far I haven't learned much about giving into my cravings, GRR, which was one of the biggest reasons for doing this. Plus I really want to get back to listening to my body when I'm hungry not my brain. So far so good today, a friend is doing the fast with me and is on day 2 with no cheats. I'm very proud of her and we'll help support each other through this. I just need to stay strong and focused and remember why I'm doing this.
