Day 1 - 24 Day Challenge

4/14/2016

Day 1 was overall a good day. I thought I was going to struggle with remembering to take the supplements before breakfast and at dinner time, so I set a silent alarm on my Fitbit to remind me. I also made a quick reference chart where I’ll be checking off the supplements I’m taking throughout the day. I keep that chart in my Erin Condren planner since I mess with it all day anyway. I didn’t forget any pills or doses yesterday, and I’ve walked away with some very valuable information and observations:
  • The fiber powder I was so worried about… I shouldn’t have worried about at all. I mixed the powder and my spark in a blender bottle and took it with 10 oz of water at breakfast. I had to add another 2-3 oz about halfway through because I could tell it was thickening, but I think I actually prefer the fiber & spark to just spark! The spark is a little less bitter thanks to the fiber, which is technically unflavored, but it neutralizes it or something.
  • HOLY ENERGY! About an hour after breakfast I got a massive rush of energy. I was saying “good morning” to everyone that walked past, I was giving high fives, I was smiling… It was weird. Lol. I’ve never had Spark affect me as strongly as it did yesterday. We’ll see if that stays the same or if I get used to it.
  • The sleep at the end of Day 1 was the best sleep I’ve had in my entire life. I’m not exaggerating. I slept the entire night. I didn’t wake up and turn over, I didn’t reach for Justin, I didn’t have trouble falling asleep… It was weird. I fell asleep facing my desk and woke up also facing my desk. That tells me that I didn’t move all night. I slept so good and so hard that I woke up and had no idea what the time was. I thought I set a weird alarm that I had forgot about and it was actually, like, midnight. But nope! 4:45. I hopped out of bed with my swag on. I wasn’t groggy, or grumbly… I was happy!
  • Went to HEB after the gym to stock up on supplies for shark week and I didn’t grab a chocolate bar like I normally do on this particular monthly shopping trip. I didn’t want chocolate at all. In fact, the only thing that sounded good were the Pistachios by the register, which I bought along with some Almonds and Cashews.
So my energy level and my sleep quality were the big shocks to me yesterday. Skirting the dreaded chocolate craving wasn’t as big of a deal to me for some reason. Day 1 of a new regimen, you don’t expect any change at all! Much less something dramatic like what I experienced. I’m excited to see where the rest of the cleanse phase takes me (:

    I already know what happens when I give up. I want to see what will happen if I don't.
