Thanks… I miss it… It was a old friend.

Ok, this my report: 5 day without Processed Sugar.

Today I could feel changes in my cravings… I didn’t eat bread because I made an atole of wilk with rice. Here in Mexico is common and so delicious, I love it haha, my mom taught me to make it 2 months ago… and I decided to make it. I’m not a cook but it was good haha.

It“s like this:

My mind still have those thoughts about sugar in the morning, for example; I ate my atole, but when I finished it, my mind or my body… it wanted to eat processed sugar (cookies). The good news is I can control it better, but it’s still there. … I guess I need more time, but I only have 5 days, it’s not much time.

This journey is hard, but I’m confident in myself… Now I know I can say ā€œnoā€.

Mmm yesterday I forgot to post my report…sorry!!

I was commented that I ate bread in the morning. I“ve not eaten for two weeks, because I had made my Atole. When I go out to eat, it“s not necessary to eat other food (I bring more food, so I don“t feel hungry afterwards). At night my sister don“t help me (Why should she?)

I can understand that this is my way and most people donĀ“t want to change, theyĀ“re not aware of it… I respect their way and their decissions. When I found out about the consecuences of sugar, I tried to share this knowledge with them, but they donĀ“t listen to me. So I understand that eveyone has their own time.

I have measured my progress and reactions, I discover that my body is supporting me, it doesnĀ“t have any need to eat more, the problem here is my mind, My body doesnĀ“t want more food, IĀ“m aware of it… but a thought come to my head… It says ā€œEat sugar, you can enjoy this food with some cookies or candiesā€

ItĀ“s like a PC code in my brain that is active at ceirtain times. I could studerstand this part of me thanks to the meditation (I recommend it) Now when I hear that voice, I know is a mirage… I say ā€œNot this time, IĀ“m better nowā€

Yesterday was a busy day. I went with my sister to the aquarium. She had to do a report on marine life. We spent a whole day there… And in the morning I had my karate exam… I did it, IĀ“m 6° kyo or green belt…It wasnĀ“t easy, I was so nervous… a lot of people were watching me and shijan (judge) is very strict.

I trained all last week because I was afraid of forgetting techniques…

My report:

My sister wanted to buy a soda but I preferred to buy a water bottle… it was the first time that I chose water than soda in a hot evening.

I havenĀ“t eaten any cookie, soda… I feel that energy when we drink coffe, I feel it without drinking coffee (IĀ“ve not drunk caffe either because the last time I drank without sugar… I donĀ“t like it… It was very bitter)


This one was my old friend… it wasnĀ“t a pedigree dog but I donĀ“t care… dog is a dog (I learned a lot about it)

This time… IĀ“m gonna let to eat bread in the morning (I can only eat it at night… after dinner not before) In the morning IĀ“ll eat more protein.

See you tomorrow!!

Hello everyone!! New day.
Here in Mexico weĀ“re on vacation… ā€œSemana santa holidayā€ Most people have holiday since Monday, a whole week. Legally ItĀ“s 4 days, from the 17th to the 20th… In my work weĀ“ll only work until today…

IĀ“ll visit to my mom, I bought my tickets on last monday… I was lucky because I almost didnĀ“t get any tickets… I arrived at the station very relaxed… Suddenly the receptionist says ā€œSorry, we have no tickets until next dayā€ mmmm it was suprised. But I remembered that thereĀ“s another place where I could buy them. This place is in the same station… There were only two free seats… wow… I got them haha I didnĀ“t think two twice!!

My point is… My mom have a shop where you can find a lot of groceries… yes, you can find many processed sugar products… and when IĀ“m always there I buy groceries in her shop… this time I won’t do it…

See you tomorrow!!
But this time IĀ“ll not buy anything of processed food products…

Ok, I keep going on this way!!

It suppose I must post every day but I have no idea what I must poste…

This was a good day, I had many meetings at work… Mmmm ok, this is my 20 day. I had to buy eggs for my breakfast and nest to it, there were cookies, my brain was thinking haha but in the end I didn’t but anything of cookies….

Hello everyone!!

I feel two minds in my brain… I really donĀ“t have words to describe this feeling. One part of me says ā€œWhy do you want change?ā€ and other says ā€œThe change isnĀ“t an option is necessaryā€

When I started trying to quit PMO, I could find out about how and addiction works, maybe that“s the reason because my willpower can fight easier with sugar addiction.

My high energy levels are obvious, sugar addiction is real and is very dangerous for us.
My friends and people around me know about this addiction but they donĀ“t want to let it go… even although they have enough information, they donĀ“t care…

I say ā€œok, the changes hurt a lotā€ that part of our humanity
I canĀ“t understand it yet, because if we know if this is dangerous for us… we stay there…

I try to share knowledge around me, because I feel that responsibility, but ItĀ“s also funny because in modern times people see and being a healty person is strange… some people feel inconrtable is next to healty people.

Hello everyone!!
My screen says ā€œ24 dayā€

I have those two sides in my brain also

I talk about it like

There are 2 wolves fighting in my head. One good and the other bad. Which one wins? The one you feed the most

But in this case

It’s the one with the most healthy food. :slight_smile: :red_apple:

Thanks, you’re right!

Hello everyone… I’m still here haha… I’ve occupied, 26 days I have a problem with my little sister, she still has bad eating habits, I live with her, she sometimes arrive with soda, cheaps, etc.. I practice karate every morning, I think the main reason is because I’m not overweight, she is also small.

I invited her to understand how to work to restart your body and eat better. My mistake, if you know that you can change your life, whether you change habits, how to eat, life is easier. But you can’t change people, no matter if she is my sister. (I will do new activities but alone, because I try to understand good habits, but she thinks it’s boring, each person has its own time) I can see the world with different eyes, it’s a crazy because at school not teach about your body (Understand it), I have less friend now because I could not stay in that environment. The world is simpler now, I can understand better.

An addiction is hell, I can control my glucose levels and I have more energy, in many years I haven’t felt well and with clear mind.

Hello everyone!

Today was a reflective day… I watched a video on youtube about how to be better. I found out that my life can change even better. When I completely to the PMO, I could connect with my masculinity… now I’m trying to completely to the proccesed food (sugar) my life had problems and I didn’t know.

Next week I will eat salad before my meals, some new to me because I’m not used to eat salad… I’ve never had salad in my diet haha, this will be interesting. I’m learning so much about healthy habits.

I could realize that I need to learn to speak better, I can speak english better but my spanish vocabulary is poor haha and my native language, I have problems with my phone, main reels on youtube. I want to learn IA.

I will add more weight on my way, no bread for a week… okok, I’m more confident myself… I can’t do it… I’m going to eat salad haha… Here I go!

Hello everyone!!

I have problems with bread, I don“t know if my body is ready to quit bread, I tried to consume less bread but I could only do 2 days, my goal is 5 days but it“s difficult. I see my old me and I have changed a lot.

I eat salads before my meals, which I didnĀ“t do before. IĀ“m learning to flatten my glucose. I sometimes have that feeling to eat all sugar that I can found. My brain says ā€œJust one cookie, What can happen?ā€ But I know if I fail, IĀ“ll feel very tired, with a lot of cravings and no energy.

On the other hand, My way of freedom has already been one month, time is passing faster!!
