Detox Day 6

So I missed blogging last night about my experience yesterday, so here it is early today.
Other than feeling like I cannot have the occasional cookie, I am doing great. I am feeling well, eating til I am filled, snacking when I want to, and don't feel anymore like I am drowning in the water I have been drinking. As of the beginning of day 6, I have lost 10 pounds! And honestly, I am not really trying. This whole experience was to try to learn to live healthier and eat better. I guess my weight loss is just a testament to to how poorly I have been eating. I know I was eating better than I was before. We RARELY ever eat fast food (thank the movie "Super Size Me" for that, but I am grateful for that too), we mostly cook at home, we usually bring our lunch to work with us. Since a year ago, we were living healthier than we had been, this is just taking it to the next step. In the past year, by changing eating habits/lifestyles, I have lost a total of 48 pounds! I am not a huge exerciser. I like to exercise, but my problem is just getting to the gym! My point being, just make better choices when I am eating had made this happen and it is proving to be still happening. Anyone can do it, they just have to want to. Anyway, I feel like I just gave a testimonial for something so I will stop. Here is a listing of what I ate yesterday.
