Aaaahhh, day three...so glad you're over!

Three days!  So far, so good...sort of!  LOL  Meal times are still really hard, I made spaghetti and garlic toast for the kids tonight and that was really hard!  mmmm....garlic!  Seriously though, I am so proud of myself, I didn't even lick the sauce off my finger when I checked the temperature for the boys; I just grabbed a paper towel and wiped it off!  It's so funny how I'm noticing all the little behaviors that I hadn't paid attention to before now.  When I made the kids a pb&j, I would almost always eat their crust, or steal a bite of their cereal at breakfast time, or just grab a snack whenever I feel like it...that's been the hardest part and has made me see how easily all this extra weight came on!  Not eating any food is really really hard, but every morning I wake up and think, "woo hoo!  I made it another day!"  And that feeling is so great, I can't wait to have it again tomorrow morning and the morning after that!  It also helps that when I got on the scale this morning, I found that I had lost 6 pounds since the morning of day one!  that is crazy!  So I just looked at a calendar and realized that day 60 is April 2...wow, that seems really far away, doesn't it?!  One day at a time!

One small side note - I've noticed that I have the hiccups A LOT lately!  I don't know if it's related to the juicing or not, but I don't usually get them this often - we're talking like twice a day!
