Today is mostly a “down” day, drinking my fruit juice concoction (2c fruit juice, 2T Braggs ACV, 1T honey, and water to fill container). I think we might do dinner somewhere tonight but that’s okay. We did a dinner at Applebee’s last night and I ordered the veggie pizza (it is listed as an appetizer on the menu, and is about the only thing other than french fries that a vegetarian can eat at the restaurant). Ate half. HALF! That’s it! HALF!!!
…I don’t know why it is so hard for me to mentally adjust to this. I just keep thinking that I will be more hungry than I am. I need a reset button for my brain.
Went for a short jog this morning (slept…through…alarm!!! ohno!!) and will be playing racquetball at 7pm. I am feeling really, really good doing my jogs, better than ever before in fact. And my sleep pattern seems to have changed since I started taking the fish oil caps (amost 2g a day of Omega-3 oils) too. I have always been able to sleep; in fact, that has been the problem: sleeping too much. Give me leave and I’ll sleep for 12+ hours. But not anymore, because I’m automatically waking up after about 8 hours. That, I assure you, is very peculiar for me. I also feel more rested. Hard to judge that objectively, of course, but it is my impression. So many people have talked about their sleep patterns becoming “normal” after upping their Omega-3 intake, I have to believe it is all related.
Right now it is near lunch time and I am not even hungry. The SW took off the edge of hunger that crept up on me around 11am; soon I’ll go dip into my juice/ACV concoction. I just have to say: I’m feeling really, really GOOD these days.
