It is day 25 of my Whole30, and things are going great. I think I've hit the point where food just does not matter. Either that or I'm really lazy.
Yesterday morning I did the WOD at 5:30, then worked all day. Breakfast was gyro meat and a pear, lunch was a salad with chicken, and I didn't have anything immediately after work. Instead I decided to go to the box for some cardio. Finished that, grabbed a quesadilla at Chipotle for hubby, got home around 8 (approximately 15 hours after my day started with the WOD). I didn't have anything cooked and didn't have the energy to prepare anything. I ate an apple with almond butter and went to bed.
This morning I woke up around 6 and still had no desire to cook anything. I flipped through my cupboards and found nothing. My husband still has his food in the house, but nothing registered on my radar as "Food For Me". I had a banana and almond butter. I'm not hungry. I'm not full. I'm just...I'm not anything. It is not a concern to me. I don't CARE about eating anymore. I'll do it when I have to, and if there's nothing around that I consider food then I'm disinterested. Can the emotional tie to food be broken? Is that even possible, after 25 years of fighting it? 25 years of struggling done in 25 days...how is that possible?
Several people have commented now that my face looks slimmer. I keep feeling my jaw to try to verify changes. It's a slow, meditative process. Changing from the inside takes a lot of heart.
