RESET Day 5

Wow I cant believe that I finally made it to Day 5 of my RESET and must say that I feel amazing!! Despite being tempted by  cheesecake and pizza at work, I was able to focus on making healthy snack choices and now those cravings for greasy hamburgers and cheese dips have completely diminished. I managed to face down my desire to get on the scale and am so excited about my weigh-in and measurements tomorrow! i even managed to walk at least 2 miles every day even though my fibro was giving me fits and my right leg was being less than cooprrative. But that is not the greatest of my successes during this week.

Losing weight is cool, killing cravings even better, but the strengthening to my self-control and determination is absolutely astounding! The feeling of knowing that I can tell my body what it needs to be healthy and stick to my resolve to reaching those goals is completely glorious. The most libertating feeling in the world is knowing that once again I am in control of my body, my health, and my destiny. My cravings, my bad habits, and most importantly my fibromyalgia will not dictate what happens in my life.

Some people may think its crazy that a 5 day "cleanse" can have this kind of impact but I assure you that I do not exagerate! It takes 21 days to build a new habit but only 5 to give you the drive to turn that habit into a lifestyle that lasts forever.

Check out tomorrow's post for the results of my cleanse and the steps for phase two of my journey! I will also have the information for how you can start your own Happy and Healthh Journey and start killing the cravings, shedding the pounds, and discovering the You that you have always known was within.

Sweet dreams my friends!
Rachel
