sugar free day fourteen

missed a day posting. still sick, though feeling better today (thank gods!). yesterday and today both i had sugar cravings in the afternoon and evening, they're driving me nuts. why after twelve days? i have no idea. i wish it were still as easy as those first days... i didn't feel Any desire for sweet stuff. now i'm dreaming of brownie batter, reese's, and ice cream.

i've been reading through the pb forums trying to figure out how others handle this. it sounds like it may be a problem of leptin resistance, or i may just need more fat. i seemed fine after eating cottage cheese yesterday and the day before, maybe i will allow some fattier dairy into my diet and see what happens.

i got nothin else for today. gonna go grumble some more about not eating sugar...

Oh yeah, this is how you know you're REALLY getting primal. I went through major detox when I first started primal a year ago. Almost a full 14 days of flu like symptoms, bitchiness, exhaustion, cravings... it was hard. Once you get through this part... you're going to feel like a million bucks. Keep going, one foot in front of the other!
