BLE: Day 6

I have headaches still. They get worse at night and are dull during the day. I've read this is normal, and that it is probably my body getting used to a lower blood sugar level. I am going to try to schedule a acupuncture appointment to see if that relieves it.
There are multiple times when I've been snacky, a few times when I've felt hungry, but overall, it has been an easier transition than I expected.
I wish I could say that I go to bed and wake up amazing the next morning, full of energy and clear minded. Perhaps that is in the future. I still feel fairly tired and the headache is a B.

The new thing

Hi,
It's been a while.

About 2 months ago I listened to a podcast and it really hit home for me. I related to the interviewee and appreciated the science she offered to back up what she was presenting. Welcome,

Bright Line Eating.

So here I am, day two on this journey. Lots has happened between my last post and today, but maybe that doesn't matter for now.

Here's what I have committed to:

1. Bright line eating for 100 days (March 10, 2018)
2. Strictly following this eating plan which includes:

• no flour
• no sugar or sweeteners
• 3 meal times and no snacking between
• portioning out the food at each meal

3. Reaching out for support daily. (This could include blogging, instagramming, a Facebook group for BLE, or two friends that have agreed to be my accountability partners)

I finished the BLE book today and honestly, I still feel hesitant. I feel like I could perhaps fail again. This seems like a big challenge. Parts of BLE goes against my way of seeing nutrition, but then again I don't really know how to categorize nutrition for 1) healthy normal weight people versus 2) overweight people. I'm certainly in that second category and the 80/20 philosophy hasn't been working for me. 

So here are some stats. Because I'm a numbers/graph gal, duh. 

Heaviest: 283 (January 2011)

Current: 233.8 (Yesterday, November 30, 2017)

100 day Goal: 199  (March 10, 2018)
