What better day than a Saturday

Have you ever done the, "I am starting that diet thing on Monday," gig?  I am not a diet person.  But...I really need to get back into watching what I eat.  Really.  I am just not feeling my best.  I also want to start that 31 Days to Clean.  So tomorrow, Saturday I am starting it all. 

I actually started it last weekend and did really good considering we went to two open houses.  Then came company 3 times during the week and a grill out at friends tonight that did me in.  I am not talking about not having anything and enjoying life.  I am talking about knowing what drags me down and makes me feel like I am running on empty.  For me that is sugar and gluten.  I have a non-celiac sensitivity to both and dairy.  So do my children and we use to do very well.  You know how it goes you get home from the nutritionist to bag everything up that is not good and donate it all to people who can have it.  Research and make meal plans and actually stick to them.  Let me tell you that is hard when you are trying to fill up 3 growing boys.  Not to mention I love to cook but you are some what limited when you have to watch sugar, gluten and dairy!  Then it happens you eat a bit here and there, no major problems so you cheat more.  Your body hides the intolerance well for awhile until it just hits you and you are down. 

I need accountability here ladies!  Who is joining me on this band wagon?

Tomorrow I will
start to walk again 30 minutes 5 days a week
limit to almost none existence sugar
limit dairy
limit to almost none existence gluten
start 31 Days to Clean devotion online ebook

I am with you! Blessings come when you help one another be accountable. It is funny Morgan and I were just talking about going off all sugar except occasional honey and maple syrup and then your post! :D I need to work on the dairy a little more too. For some reason dairy is my "easy" cheat because I have gotten my symptoms under control (for the most part) and don't get stuffy as much. That makes me think it is "ok" then to partake a little more often! lol Thanks for the challenge!
