Keep Your Head Up- Day 3 continued

Well Day 3 is over!! I did it!

I still have my last shake to drink for the night but other than that I am done. Thank goodness.

I am really surprised I finished to be completely honest. Food is a big deal for me, so to go for three days and stick to an extremely regimented and restrictive plan is not a small feat. But I did finish, and I didn't cheat once, although I wanted to MANY times.

The fact that I was able to do this and complete the cleanse is a green light for me. I can show discipline and self control and do something good for myself because it is important, and not give in because it is hard. So I am extremely proud of myself, and so glad it's over!! I feel like I have passed a test!

Speaking of tests, today for lunch some people I work with wanted to try out this new place right outside of Cookeville. Because they are super awesome and supportive people, they brought me by my house first to make my lunch shake and grab my piece of fruit for the day (today was apples). After introducing Samantha to Walter (pet turtle), we headed out to lunch. Now let me just set the scene for where we ate. It's in a gas station. It's a burger place called Flip'In Burger. They have 30 free toppings for your burger. They give you a BAG of french fries if you order a large. So here I sit in a gas station burger joint with my shake and apple, and everyone at the table has some amazing looking lunch! It wasn't easy and I got a lot of weird looks from sketchy truckers random people, but I held out. So go me (I am definitely going back to try one of these burgers!!)

Bet you can't guess which one is mine

So while difficult, it wasn't impossible and I feel amazing going into tomorrow! I have energy and will power and a lot of self empowerment! And I am so excited about weight watchers!

I went grocery shopping tonight (don't do this during a cleanse, thats the definition of masochism), and signed up for my online WW program so I am ready to go in the morning. Look forward to some new recipes and WW points included. Also, if your on this program download the WW barcode scanner. It is the best thing and so helpful while shopping!!!

Thanks for the support and I apologize to anyone who had to deal with me the past 3 days, the crankiness has been out of control! My bad, Ill be much better tomorrow :)

Happy Hump/ Leap Day!
