A purchaser with too much time on her hands

On a break, kind off

by Aina on 27 Jul 2013, 12:03

I am on a kind of break for now. I feel like my body needs to get 'stabalize' before I embark on more fasting and what not. It has been a crazy several years and the craziness if not over and I hope it will soon be over so that I can start really to destress and take care of my body properly.

There are certain things that are way out of my control and I have to let time fix that. Others where I can fix like making sure I get enough sleep, proper nurtition and exercise.

I have not done a proper fast for the past week or so but I have done a 16:8 each day to maintain and that I have managed rather well. I have not gained weight though my scales are jumpy but that is due amount of food or what kind of food I consume. My measurements are the same and I fit into my clothes that I never thought I will fit in again.

Food wise I have been good. I have avoided white flour and most carbs. The day that I consumed white flour I had a terrible tummy next day. So it just confirms my suspicion. I had the past 2 weeks having relatively normal tummy and one small move makes it bad.

I no longer crave that much chocolate like I use to. I do still eat them but in small amounts. I am not totally cutting them out of my life especially after getting a huge box from Singapore with items that I love. That box will probably last me several months if not a year or two!

Today is going to be a wedding that we will be attending. I am going in a dress that fits me nicely and one that I wont wonder if I look fat in it. Now that is a nice feeling!
