I still can’t believe it is day 10 already.  It was another early morning but I had plenty of energy when I woke up this morning.  We went to bed around 1030 last night and woke up early this morning and it was not bad at all.  I felt well rested and ready to get the day on.  I have to say that I slept very sound last night.  I am a fairly light sleeper and for me to sleep sound is a special event, as it is rare that I can relax to the point where I sleep that heavy and actually feel that rested.  Dont get me wrong I sleep good at night but last night was Deep Sound Sleep.

So yesterday while I was snacking on something I noticed I got a runny nose almost instantly and wondered why that happened and just shrugged it off as being odd and went about my business.  Well again, snacking in the evening I had a pineapple  and sure as shit my runny nose was back almost instantly.  Then I sat there a bit and realized that it was fruit earlier that day that made my nose run as well.  Then it dawned on me that fruit with lots of sugar in it are probably not the best for me right now.  For the most part I will try to avoid them for the time being until I get over this event.  I can’t believe I am realizing things like that now.  OH yes I am loving loving loving artichoke hearts they are delicious and I am kicking myself for never trying them earlier then when I did.   My first time trying Artichoke Hearts was probably about a month ago.  I just thought I wouldn’t like them because they didn’t look very yummy, but I sure was wrong!  Yesterday I had a cauliflower soup that was amazing.  I’m so glad Brandy Jo is here for me, especially when it came to that soup last night.  Just for the record I do cook and actually love to cook. I just have to learn how to prepare different kinds of meals now.  I’m actually kinda having fun with it.  Believe me if you told me a year ago that I would be trying out different ways to prepare meals with no meat included I probably would of laughed at you then chugged my beer in the same breath :) .  So for those of you who were, or are like me, and just felt like you had to have meat in a meal I have found that mushrooms and artichokes are my new friend.

I didn’t reach 200 in my crunches again but I’m getting closer I think I need to start that earlier.  The push-ups aren’t bad I’m still knocking those out 50-60 at a time so I make it to 200 fairly quickly with those.  Anyways I’m not going to think of not making it to 200 as a failure at least I’m doing some and that is a improvement from not doing any at all.

For everyone following this, if anyone, I would encourage you to try the change in diet it truly does make a difference.
