Day 6

I continue to feel great. This morning I woke up, jumped on the scale and see I've lost 6 lbs. So far, not so bad. My original weight was as much as when I was 10 months pregnant with matisyn. Pretty embarrassed at the lack of self control that has gotten me to this size.
I think about all the reasons why inside myself that I have sabotaged myself the last 18 months and I have dozens of excuses, but what good are they to me? Honestly, breastfeeding is not a good excuse- cause that helps you lose weight. I haven't been exercising cause I'm always tired.
I've let myself not know the feeling of self control for so long, it's like a foreign concept to learn on this diet. Infect I'm so happy to be in control, its like a welcomed change that I'm more than ready to change.
Going to mcdonalds for a "coffee", which i would do daily, was ridiculous. There is absolutely no need to eat out anymore. What was once enjoyable, no longer thrills me. I'm totally all about fitting into jeans from last year. Heck, 6 years ago, pre chase pregnancy would be nice let alone college clothes (which I let go of a long time ago, so don't think I'm going to be reviving shit from England because I'm a mom now).
I simply love the fact that sugar is out of my life. I'm not feeling sick after I eat something. I'm not tired anymore, I'm living. And that alone is huge to me. I'm really happy I made these diet changes and I'm taking these vitamins. I want to be happy and healthy! And I am!
