kick sugar to the curb.....

It has been only three very hard, a little grumpy days since I decided to eat better. I already feel 100 times better..it is crazy, I didn't realize how bad I felt until I quit eating so much crap. It has given me a boost that I REALLY need to keep going. (I know, I sound pathetic...only THREE days?? butt if you really knew me you would be amazed yourself). I still see candy everywhere and want to eat it...ALOT of it. This morning as I was eating my yogurt instead of my sugary cereal with toast and nutella, I have been reading articals to help kick the sugar cravings. This one really had some good points, so I am posting them here.

1. eat often (I can definatly do this one)!
2. Choose whole foods
3. have a breakfast of protein, fat..(really)?? and phytonutrients..(a chemical compound found in plants...I had to look it up).
4. incorporate protein and fat..(again really)? into each meal.
5. add spices
6. take a good vitamin supliment
7. move your body
8. get enough sleep..(easier said than done).
9. do a detox..(yuck).
10. be mindful of emotions...(huge for me)!
11. keep it out of reach
12. don't subsitute artificial sweetners for real sugar.
13. learn to read labels
14. watch for sugar in disguise
15. take L-glutamine..(it helps your sugar cravings)
16. take a breathing break
17. distract yourself
18. drink lots of water
20. eat a piece of fruit

So most of those seem doable. Except for the whole detox diet. In my mind I keep thinking about a show I watched where a model did a detox and had all her poop sucked from her colon...NO THANKS.
Well onto better days of eating. Butt I would like to add one more thing to that list.
