Day 01; ...a new beginning

I guess you could say, I've come to the realization that change isn't as easy as I would like it to be. However, attitude and determination promote change. If I stay positive my chances double. Which is great because my confidence was at 25% but now with the attitude and determination boost, I'm pushing a hard 50%. Meaning, there is a possibility.

BREAKFAST
Very Berry Protein Shake, 222 calories.
It seems the odds are against the healthier me. I had to wake up ten minutes earlier and I was still ten minutes late to work. I am snoozer. I will snooze my alarm at least ten times before I actually crawl out of bed. Instead of my normal ten snoozes I only snoozed eight time. I thought while I was blending my shake, I'd do my make up. When I got in the kitchen every utensil I needed to make my protein shake was dirty. I was a little frustrated that I had to knock out some dishes before work. I got the blender going but got distracted with making my snacks (carrots and cherry tomatoes). I pulled my shake from the blender and found a lid that I ended up having to jimmy on. I sat my shake on the couch so I could grab some waters ...I wasn't even gone from the couch for 30 seconds. My shake ended up leaking. I had to clean that up too! ...and then I did my make up. Once I got to work I went into the kitchen to rinse the shake from the outside of my cup. The coffee pots were staring at me all rude like. I mentally said, good-bye. Coffee will not be in my diet for the next 7 days. I hurried down the hall to get to my desk. I just wanted to be alone. Once I got to my desk I couldn't remove the lid to the freaking shake. Who would of thought??? I would have and I did think it. Why would it open, why would this be easy. If it were so easy everyone would be walking around eating healthy. This is what I get for pounding the lid on. (SIGH) ...not the 50% of me that has the positive attitude and determination but the 50% of me that doubts myself wanted the lid never to open. I could hear that 50% saying, forget about it, you tried, "GO GET SOME COFFEE".
The other 50% of me stop and asked God for his intervention. "Please, in Jesus name help me get this lid off, please!"
With little effort at all, the lid screwed off and might I mention, there was no mess. :)

LUNCH
Surprisingly, lunch was quite filling. I had a salad and 4 oz of steak. Like I mention earlier in this entry. Preparation is timely. It took me an hour to make and eat lunch. Or maybe I don't feel like scarfing down a salad, just ain't as tasty as hamburgers and french fries.
A good friend of mine told me I'm doing this completely wrong. I'm supposed to be weaning myself off. Well, I'm a cold turkey type of girl. I deprive and that's how I quit.

DINNER
I had a yummy 4oz of salmon, some broccoli and some cauliflower. Can you say, delicious. I can but I'd be lying. I learned today that this is called RESET aka detox. All I can say is I am addicted to food. I definitely need a support group or a sponsor, something. I'm having withdraws... not physical but psychological. I want to eat cookies. Just to feel the processed almost tasteless cookie crumble in my mouth. Hmm... It ain't happening though.

DAY 1 (Completed w/ 831 Calories taken in)
I completed day one with thirteen days of the Reset (detox) left. Oh, and somehow I've already lost 2 pounds. Can you believe that? I can't. Just the encouragement I needed because I had no idea what I had in store. Unfortunately the P.I.N.K method doesn't go into detail about the food plan. If I had known I think I would have hesitate in whipping out the cash. Not because I doubt the results just because I would prefer to eat a little bread or maybe an apple. The detox is crucial. I feel like a Holocaust survivor. 24 hours are to many to control myself, I'm thinking. I'm debating on going to black coffee tomorrow. My energy level was low, low, low. As much as I want to detox without cheating, my job pays my bills.
Well, I'm off to cook some chicken and beef for tomorrow, well maybe.
