Day 8: So That was Weird

I’ve been eating clean for the past 7 days. Almost completely eliminating sugar from my diet and drinking a ton of water. Last night we decided to get pizza and enjoy the cold weather curled up watching a movie.

I should have known better.

Holy hell of all things! About 30 minutes after I finished eating I got dizzy, nauseous and irritable. I could hardly see straight my head hurt so much. I downed a glass of water and Tylenol before climbing into bed. I woke up this morning sick to my stomach and aching in pain. I felt like I had food poisoning. How did I live on this stuff before???? It is seriously toxic to my body. Ugh. I was so sick I couldn’t even get through a minute of meditation.  

I’m not saying that I won’t indulge in pizza or anything that’s not healthy, but I do know that I cannot consume the quantity that I used to, nor want to in all frankness. I’m actually really enjoying eating clean and healthy. It boosts my confidence to know that I am taking care of myself, as well as I plain enjoy the taste of veggies and fruits. Plus I’m like obsessed with water to no end.

I really enjoy that this is a LIFESTYLE change. It’s not some deprivation diet that will bite me in the ass a few weeks from now. I am changing my life course one day and choice at a time. I love the way it’s stretching me mentally and spiritually. I’m finally feeling more like the self I knew I was meant to be.
