Today is day 5 of my cleanse. I just ate a Parmesan Basil Chicken salad with some sort of oil and vinegar dressing. The salad probably receives a C+ as a grade for a healthy choice lunch. Way better than a Chik-fil-a sandwich and french fries. As I was driving to pick up this salad I was thinking about how stressed out I am from the pain of this back injury and how the stress is probably contributing to my pain.
I told my husband on the phone that it was a miracle I was not eating a bucket of ice cream and drinking a bottle of wine. Instead, I was able to stay the course and get a salad. That got me to thinking. Even in the best of circumstances I rarely make the best choice. I head into a restaurant with good intentions and always choose something bad. Here I was experiencing awful circumstances and I had no desire to order something unhealthy. I think that might mean that the program is working to reprogram my mind and body. Is the addiction to the junk starting to subside? Interesting and exciting. I am hopeful. Now if my back will heal I just might get to experience actually feeling great as a result of the Cleanse.
