Day Two of Detox

I woke up on Wednesday morning with surprisingly more energy. I felt like having no sugar would make me more tired and sluggish, but the opposite was true. I typically hate mornings and will not agree to any appointments before 9:00 AM. Every morning it takes me hours just to get going and get out of my jamas, unless I absolutely have to. This morning was different. I got ready for the day, I gave all three girls a bath, dressed them cute and did all of their hair, and all before 10:30. I thought to myself, this is not like me at all. I did not expect to notice any changes in the way I was feeling so soon. This really got me wondering. Is it possible that all these years I have not been a morning person because of the way I eat?

Throughout the day I found myself to be noticeably irritable, I kept snapping at the kids and when Jared got home from work he told me I was grumpy. Still had major sugar cravings all day and ended the day with a massive headache. I rarely get headaches so I'm pretty sure this is related to the detoxing. Who knew getting off sugar would be similar to getting off any addictive drug. I feel like if I can get past the first week the worst part will be behind me.
