There is some truth, it seems, in everyone's advice that the first few days after the first few days will be the hardest. I've stuck to my plans today, but am really craving.
It doesn't help that we've had some employees based in Belgium rock up at work and bring a lovely big box of Belgian chocolates. I've been very strong - today I took a step in the direction of the box, then turned myself around.
I reworked my diet last night to try to meet some more of the requirements to minimise sugar intake, but I just can't reconcile to having no fruit at all. Fruit has its own health benefits, and I can't imagine a diet that pulls fruit out completely can ever be good for you. I have stuck to strawberries, mandarines and pears, with maybe the odd 1/2 an apple and the odd kiwifruit.
Not sure about sultanas. They are high GI, but I only have a few of them through my fruit & nut mix - are they going to mess the entire thing up??
I still have a headache, but its very minimal - so looks like the caffeine detox is perhaps working. I suspect the sugar detox was kind of interrupted by the binge day I had the other day, so am still working on that. Had a low kick in just after lunch today - I was working and all of a sudden I just started to fall asleep. Had something to eat, and it went away...
I'm feeling kind of serious and a tiny bit stressy today - I badly feel the lack of a partner in my life - I'm just not the type to be alone - I don't need someone who lives with me, just someone who loves me. Is that too much to ask??
Not sure if I told you that 'the guy' I was talking about at the very beginning has proven himself to be a first quality arsehole, so I'm not contacting him - it'll be up to him to contact me, and make me want to see him. But personally, I think that will never happen.
Anyway, enough wallowing.
