So for the probably the first time in my life I have cut out dessert. I have been trying to eat healthier and watch calories as well. But the real biggie for me is the sugar. I am still having fruit and I have a shakeology shake for lunch that is sweet. But I am not have cookies, candy, or cake, etc. I am on day four of this. Last night I had a massive headache and felt shaky. So like usual when I make a change l like this I start to analyze it. The good or the bad, etc. First I want to say I feel more alert today, but I also feel less bloated. I haven’t lost much since I have been eating better, but its only been 4 days. I have literally seen the scale reduce .2 lbs. each day. So in the past when I have tried to lose weight I cut calories but still have dessert. This is further proof that a calorie isn’t just a calorie! I am down .6 lbs. in the past 4 days. I am not doing anything different in terms of calorie cutting and weight loss other cutting out the dessert. I also want to note that in the past when I have started a weight loss plan it takes me weeks to find a “balance” to see the scale move DOWN. I am not kidding with this. I’d have to adjust and change things and it would still be a delicate process that would bust easily! I’d start going down to jump up two pounds. I am curious how this will work with cutting out dessert. I am excited to see this through.

I also want to note I watched some videos about this stuff and I come to wonder if sugar is so incredibly addictive and bad for you that its actually not worth the whole, we should do things in moderation concept? I always used to think I should be able to enjoy cookies or ice cream and eat healthy. What if its just such a horrible chemical compound that wrecks your system? What if this product made it so you slowly gained weight, wanted more and so that it would hinder potential weight loss? I don’t know if that is the case but I have been needing to lose 20 lbs. for the past 4 years and its been difficult. I love that I blame being 47 but what about the crap I put in my mouth?

Onward….
