Sorry guys, I was sooooo busy yesterday that I didn't get to recap Day 15, so I have included it in this blog with Day 16. We're over the hump. So yesterday was my first challenging day. I apologize to any men who read this blog, but it was the first day of my monthly visitor and boy was I craving chocolate!!! But I did Zumba instead of eating chocolate and that actually helped. Yes, I can induldge in dark chocolate that's not processed, but I was craving a snickers or reese cup, which happens every month. I'm not usually a sweet-eater, my downfall with junk food was french fries and potato chips, but with eating clean I don't even crave them anymore. I take it that it's the body being fed nutritious foods in a smart portion that takes away the craving for things I usually would go overboard on, because I can honestly say that I never feel famished. I make sure I space out my meals and snacks and in the last 15 days I have felt satisfied all day. It's crazy, because I thought I would be craving a lot more (especially cheeses like american and cheddar, but no).
