So far so good. I have stuck with this for a full three days. That is unbelievable to me because normally I don't even last an afternoon on a new diet. Well I guess I do know the reason. It's because this isn't a "new diet" or fad. This is a life change. The Lord is leading me and guiding me every step of the way in this and I am stepping out in faith on this one.
I did have some issues with my stomach last night. I can't explain what it was but so far today I haven't felt it. I ate a big salad yesterday afternoon. Then around 5 or 6 I felt intense pain in my stomach that made it feel like it was burning inside. This happened off and on for the rest of the evening and subsided a little after I ate a plain baked potato. It was almost totally gone by the time I went to bed. I am hoping that doesn't come back again.
So far I am starting to feel like I have slightly more energy than normal. I am also feeling like my head is coming out of a fog so to speak. I am not craving any bad foods right now and it is really interesting that I am actually eating less food than before even though I have the ok to eat all of these healthy foods that I want. I just don't feel as hungry and I am feeling satisfied on just enough food to keep my hunger down. I am letting my body control how much I eat and my body is naturally wanting the correct amount of calories. I have been keeping track of what I eat daily and I am eating right around 1200 calories per day. If I eat less than that I feel really hungry and sick but if I eat more I feel too full and bloated. The body is an amazing thing and if given the chance the body knows what to do to keep you running. God is truely the ultimate engineer!
Keep me in prayer as I go through this.
