Day 3. It's a tricky one. It's the first day to transition from solids to liquids. Again, you don't really FEEL hungry at all. As a matter of fact, juices can fill you up a lot! My hubby and daughter went out to eat tonight. Sushi. Now.... I don't even crave sushi. I used to eat it, until I ate too much of it, and that was THAT. I haven't craved sushi in forever!

Until tonight.

So why does this happen?

We always want what we can't have. Though I was perfectly satisfied drinking my juice, I CRAVED more. My husband had asked if I wanted to go out to eat tonight, and I safely told him, "No, thank you." Having been down this road before, I know not to put myself in situations that I can't handle. There is really no good way that tonight would have ended if I went down the mountain. All those delicious smells of the restaurants in the city? It would have been me caving, guilt-ridden - OR - me killing my husband.

Thinking those are both pretty bad options.🤔

So, it's always a good plan to prepare your mind and body for the day, and then avoid all those areas of temptation. Three days down, 17 to go. The cravings are usually gone by day 5. I can totally do this!!!
