I noticed we are b...It was very hard but I did it. I noticed we are bombarded by food advertisements. A true test of my commentment was driving down Missouri Blvd without stopping.<BR/><BR/>I've learned:<BR/><BR/>-I accomplished something that I really didn't know if I could do. I used GREAT self-control. I can do this with other aspects of my life.<BR/><BR/>-The mind and body connection and how this can be applied towards physical and mental health.<BR/><BR/>-I realized we easily have access to basicaly any food we want. We're very privledged. Think of all those who have little food and/or don't get to have the choices like we do.<BR/><BR/>-Since I was not planning on what to eat, going somewhere to eat, getting food at the store, etc. I realized I spent sigificant time on that and what I might be missing out on because of it. I had a lot more time to do and think about other things. It helped me to notice more around me.<BR/><BR/>-Saved a lot of money<BR/><BR/>-I had surprisingly good energy and accomplished a lot more than usual. Even tackled things I'd put off for a long time.<BR/><BR/>-I felt more pure, clearer and focused. Felt good...except when I was dizzy, shakey and had headaches<BR/><BR/>I could go on and on, but this is some of what I experienced. It was worth doing it.Dinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09526672125117138760noreply@blogger.com
