Day 10 (TEN?!)

Pic from last night, just for fun! Went to The Hood Internet (google them!!) and felt like a million bucks. Slim, trim, energized. Was not intimidated in the least to put on these skin-tight pants or show off my arms/back in the halter I'm wearing.

So I've been receiving some nice notes from friends and fans lately, and I really appreciate it. It helps me stay accountable, knowing that if I slip, I will let down not just myself -- but the many others who are counting on me to deliver the scoop and show some results that are worth it!

Look, by day-10, it's safe to say that following this plan is now a habit for me. I no longer think about food in the abusive way I used to: wolfing down my lunch while thinking about what I was going to gorge on for dinner. I am not passing a pizza place thinking I have to stop and order a slice (or 2 if that is the daily special!). Sure, I still think of cheeseburgers, pizza, and enchiladas  fondly and miss them, but my mind has been switched entirely when it comes to food - at least while I'm on this plan.

My body has also adjusted to smaller portions. I rarely feel hungry, weak, or shaky believe it or not. It feels good to be eating the way your body really wants you to, and needs you to. I'm also sure that I've lowered my bad cholesterol which is also an added bonus.

My biggest advice is to do whatever you can to plow through the first 2-3 days of the 500 calories. It will be hard, it will shock your system, you will likely have physical and emotional withdrawal symptoms related to food (which is so crazy, but true), but if you can get through that....you will coast through the rest of this plan. Promise!

Let me know if you have any questions...here to help.
