Its amazing...

what a new change in your daily diet can do to ur health in the matter of days. I have been on this lifestyle change for three weeks, and most of the things that bothered me are now non existent. I use to have heartburn that could burn a hole through concrete. It was soo horrible and painful. Sometimes I couldn't even sleep because it would wake me up every 30 minutes popping up to say hello. I also use to have the worst chest pains after I ate. It was like there was a brick stuck in there. It felt so tight and I felt like I was going to have a heart attack, definitely not a pleasant feeling to have everyday...and there wasn't a night where i wouldn't get totally nauseous, and most nights get to the point to where I would throw up... There are definitely more I could have listed and described in great detail but i don't want to make this one post into five pages long lolz. Anyways the point to all of this mumbling is that all of it went away in an instant after the bad diet had stopped. I couldn't believe it. Things that I had been trying to correct with pills and breathing exercises all went away like a bad dream. I have never felt so good. All of this is definitely an incentive to keep going with this, because why would I want to go back to eating things that physically made me feel like crap???

My weigh in is tomorrow, all I can do is wait to see what the magic number is. =)

Heres my food journal for today:
Breakfast- 1/2 cup grape nuts, 1/2 cup of granola, 1 cup of milk & three strawberries = 556 cal
Lunch- I woke up late so I just wasnt that into it
Snack- 6 triscuits and one string cheese = 200 cal
Dinner- Shrimp, spinach, and pesto eggs, two turkey bacon slices, and one piece of toast =550 cal
