Day 15

Down 16.6 pounds!
I had a minute of insanity this morning--"Not even a pound?!" I yelled, my voice echoing through the apartment causing Sebastian to hide under the bed. "I shouldn't have eaten those sun flower seeds!" "Back to only water in LEAN shakes!" "I hate eating days; I'm never eating bread again!" "I can't do anything right... ."
Wow, what a tirade ending with some negative self-talk. There goes 6 years of therapy, gosh.... I took a few minutes to think on the way to work, and remembered: 16.6 pounds in 14 days. What other diet, program, eating plan has ever given me (and so many others) such results? Calm down, Debb. I remembered that in my research into Xyngular and the products, I read that some people are more sensitive to carbs, even complex carbs and may even gain a little on eating days. I calmed myself down--a little.
Enter divine intervention. So many co-workers commented on how I look like I've lost some weight. Even students commented on how I look different and nice. A couple asked about Xyngular, and a couple offered support and advice to keep me going. It's what I needed.
So tomorrow is an eating day, I've carefully measured out my pasta--my complex carb for tomorrow--and have already packed my snacks.
And tonight I'm beginning to work on an aspect that I've been week on--getting plenty of good sleep. A step toward that is finishing the blog post before 11:00.
Thanks for reading and asking questions! I love it!
BTW--Best supper so far!
I think Phoebe would be proud of how quickly you reverse your negative thoughts .... I know I am :)
