Day 3

Day Three. That's what I kept telling myself. I keep hearing that the third day is the hardest day to make it through, for any type of habit or addiction. Well guess what. I've made it through yet another sugar free day. Somewhere between when I left my office last night, and when I returned at 10am, someone had wrangled up some missing doughnuts from yesterday morning! NOOOO! I walked in, and had to walk right past them. I did my best, and even though Stella, the little devil on my right shoulder was whispering in my ear "it's okay, you've been good for two days, it's just ONE little doughnut," I made it through without ANY of it!

I had a rather large group photo shoot at noon today, and dragging all of the heavy gear in, nearly killed me. Out of the truck, through what seemed like a mile long hall way of a high school which was UP HILL (I'm actually not exaggerating about this, it is at a steep incline), and into the gymnasium. Being surrounded by what seemed like 20394820394820809 high school seniors, thoughts of going back to my senior year of high school, whirled around in my head. If I could only go back to those days of of great health and bodies. I will not say though, I would never go back, because I would miss out on a ton of friendships and great experiences. But, if I only knew then, what I know now. Ugh, so cliché.

Tonight on my way home, I was thinking of all the yummy fresh foods in my fridge, waiting me to eat them! Chicken strips with a titch of Ms. Dash and some cajun seasoning, and some fresh steamed asparagus. Talk about a rat on a cheeto, that was me at dinner! I even made enough to take for lunch tomorrow, double score!

Usually about once a week, I battle my hypoglycemia, and feel miserable for an entire day. So far, I haven't had one low blood sugar point in the last three days. My brain thought about it, when I saw doughnuts, but, we know how that went down.

All I can say, is that even though this getting healthier business is more work than I'm used to, I'm up for it. It's time that I stop being lazy, and take the bull by the horns....or something like that.
