Well, three weeks have passed and I haven't had an ounce of chocolate! That's like the biggest accomplishment that I have had in years. I just couldn't seem to get a handle on the additive forces that darn stuff has over me.
For the past few years I have been struggling with GERD. Acid reflux. My system was completely screwed up and I continued to eat like a pig! I love candy, pop, and fast food. Of course I also love salads and other things that make myself sick as a dog.
So three weeks ago I reached my bottom. I was so sick of the acid backup, that I decided to end it all..........bad food that is! I cut out coffee, chocolate, pop, uncooked veggies and fried foods. I started eating bland, bland, bland..........no spicy foods and very little dairy.
Well, after three weeks, I have only 2 times felt sick from food. Both times I had consumed sour cream in a meal. So, now I am concentrating on cutting that out too. I love sour cream! I love coffee, I love chocolate and I love fattening foods.
I looked in the mirror last week and noticed that one of my rolls was almost gone! Walla, instant diet. I guess its a good thing, cause I was sick of the way I looked anyway.
So, now I am on the road to a healthy stomach and I'm losing weight.
It's amazing how different your life becomes once you meet the half-way mark. The clock keeps ticking faster and faster. There just isn't enough time to do everything you want to do in your life. When you are young you don't think about it. It's count down and I want it to really count this time around.
