Changes.

I can definitely feel a big difference inside my body, I am getting less stomach aches for one thing! I used to get chronic stomach pains and gas pains, you name it. But recently, none of that! Also, I have been feeling really good as well, less headaches and less allergy issues, things of that nature. I think this diet is really helping me. I had no idea it would have this much of an impact in such a short amount of time, and it feels awesome. Also, my skin looks wonderful. I have had clear skin, but I have not had a single blemish problem in the past 2-3 weeks. Nothing! And my skin is not nearly as oily as it would get. You  watch, though. Right after I hit publish, I will wake up with a zit or something. Haha. But really, my skin has less redness around my nose and forehead, and it looks a ton better, and feels smoother! I am so happy about this.

I have been trying to exercise more and get things done around my apartment. Yesterday I did some exercises like squats and lunges and different things to work my calves as well. I also was moving and dancing around my apartment, and some people on the street looked up at me through my window 4 stories up. Haha. But my legs feel really good and are looking better, too! My flatmate yesterday asked me if I was losing weight, because she said she thought I looked thinner. Score! I was wearing a baggy sweatshirt and some workout shorts, and I guess I looked thin that way? No idea. But I feel really good. Also, my tighter jeans fit! They are a bit loose if anything, actually. This makes me happy, and a shirt that was a bit tight on me now fits as well. A super cute shirt, might I add.

So today I have been trying to eat more balanced and get more fruits and veggies into me. I had an orange, a banana, a fruit leather, a salad, a stir fry, etc. Amazingly enough, I had to struggle to consume around 1200 calories today. Veggies are more filling than I thought! Crazy. Today I also did half of my laundry, as I need to go get more money tomorrow to do the rest, and I vacuumed, changed my bed sheets, organized, took out trash, etc. Everything was really piling up, and it so needed to be done. Also kept me fairly busy all day.

Anyhow, I have been feeling super great, and I really want to keep this up! I am excited about what will happen in the future. We shall see! I did have a slight weight gain this morning, but I have been drinking a lot more water than I usually do, and I have been doing exercises for my muscles, so I have confidence that what I am doing is working and will continue to work.

Keep it up, don't give up!
Love,
Erica.
