Almost the weekend

Like the rest of the world I cant wait for the weekend. It is now Day 11 and still going strong. Work was really busy today but i didnt miss my snacks or meals. I can tell my waist is down but by measuring it is showing the same. I am not worried though i know i am losing my weist by my belt. i can get the the 3rd hole so i know i am doing good. I weigh in tomorrow for my base's Biggest Loser contest. if i make my goals i have a great shot at winning if not placing in the top. I feel really good and have alot of energy. which is good since i need alot throughout the day. I know i am not doing what most people juicing are but i tried just juicing and for what was happening in my life i couldnt handle it but this time is different. Different goals, different mindset and that is the big key.

You can get inspired by the movie and what it stands for and even juice yourself but if your mindset is just to hit the 10,14, or 30 day mark then start to eat healthy you will probably fall back into old habits really easy. I konw i did. I had to think of it not as a challenge or "fad" but as  the lifestyle change it is suppose to bring on. eating healthier. i still crave junk food and processed foods but i dont have any problem not eating it. i dont have the pressure on myself to eat how my coworkers eat or even worry about the jokes they say about juicing. It is my life not theirs. now it is hard to see a perfectly good potato with a little salt on it toss in the garbage because my daughter didnt "like" it. I just had to remind myself why i am doing what i am doing. yes potatos are healthy but i am still in my detox till sunday.  On Sunday i start adding fish to the mix. i have to train my mind and stomach to eat in small portions and i really cant do that with just juice.

So far i am making alot of my mini goals, like blogging. i might not say much but just writing it down helps keep me accountable. I have no headaches, my energy is way up, i can tell my skin is less dry, i am very happy with how things are going this time around. As long as i keep with my goals i know i will not fail. till tomorrow. to my wife I love you.
