My name is Sarah...

I can't beleive its Day 1 and I am already having a hard time. Day one of even my water fast wasn't this hard! As soon as I got home I was hungry and thirsty so I opened the fridge for a quick fix and remembered the Almond milk is allowed so I had a yummy glass of unsweetened vanilla. Here is what I had for dinner squash, zuchini,onions cooked in the pressure cooker with 1/2 cup of bulgur pilaf with garbanzo beans (I totally overdid the garbanzo beans today! I even had a tiny bit of hummus) After dinner I waited a couple hours for my food to digest and headed out for a late night yoga session  I worked up an appetite at yoga so I had string cheese with a slice of ezekiel bread This seemed like alot of food for me for one day, it was as if the more I thought about dieting the more I wanted to eat! Suprisingly the next day I weighed myself and I have lost one lb. Could be the water loss from hot yoga but I never thought I could eat all day and lose weigh...

Just got off work and had this as a quick snack. It does have 5 grams of sugar but I just didn't want to throw it out and I admit I was hungry :( I guess not eating sugar makes you hungry wow. I have a hedeache and can't wait to eat dinner!

I've never had a big belly, in fact my stomach is probably my favorite body part. Like most women, I've wanted slimmer thighs and a toned body overall. Last year, I was unemployed and went through a little bit of a health obsession phase. This lead me to the 80 10 10 diet, which although may work for some, made me have a big belly! For those of you that don't know much about that diet, you basically eat fruit all day. The good news is, as soon as I cut down my fruit to "normal" amounts, with a little help from daily hot fusion classes at Corepower yoga, my stomach was back to it's old flat self. Yeyy! Where am I now? I am working at an office job, meaning I am pretty much sitting at a desk from 9-5 like most of you out there. This can be a very quick way to gain weight! Not moving around and ordering whatever is convenient for breakfast and lunch can really creep up on you if you aren't careful. I know what you're thinking, tell me something I don...
