Day 3
Day 3 was harder than I thought it was going to be. Probably because it was hard to eat to capacity on days 1 and 2, because I still don't have my taste buds back to 100%. I tried really hard, though, so I hope I don't get really hungry, like some people have said can happen.
I am finding that my will to be on this diet and get healthy is butting heads with my will not to be told what I can and can't eat. I think that part of my psyche must be 2 years old. I hear the temper tantrum building inside. The 'adult' part of me that wants to do whatever I need to in order to be healthy, is trying to have a calm and rational conversation with the 2 year old. I wish it would just give the little brat a good spanking! :)
It's hard for me to compare how I feel this time on the diet to last time, because I wasn't getting over major illnesses last time, and I am pretty tired still. But, I know that I'm not hungry - just in the habit of putting whatever I want in my mouth. To replace that habit, I am visualizing when I feel the urge to feed...my scales say 125lbs, I am trim and energized and loving life! I can't wait!

Hey i was reading your last post and i noticed you said that you lost your will because you cant eat what you want to, this is not 100% true, while you cant eat everything in sight, you can still eat all the good tasting stuff but just not heaps of it. And remember that there is alot of healthy stuff out there that taste really good like fruit, fish, chicken, fat free yoghurt with low fat ice cream etc... its just that your used to eating all the bad food and are addicted to it.
I'm so glad to have read your post and see you are still succeeding. I struggled all day with the protocol. I even had a piece of steak that went missing (I found it) but thought I am going to cheat if I don't find it. I want this and why didn't I have that on my load day. Why does that person get to eat ice cream? I'm hot! LOL! I did it all day long until I just went to sleep. I wasn't tired but was tired of the torture. I figured maybe I could pass some time away until my body gets adjusted.
