We’re back!!!, as we said. Most exactly, I’m back. Sorry if by any case you were expecting to read about me in the last two months…The only important thing is that I’m here again. The fact that I didn’t write doesn’t mean that I didn’t follow the last two diets….(ooops! I have to say that the scratch month didn’t go so well since I got operated from my tooth – finally!- so I didn’t have that much energy to cook. During 2 weeks my only food was plain yogurth -of course not homemade- and other liquid/colloidal stuff that people gave me). Then we had exams, but now, I’m fully charged again!. I have to say theat I was losing motivation, may be it was the “post-exam” stress, or the third year pressure, but the girls, and I have to say “myself”, brought me up.
From this month, I have to say, it has been 7 days, from which I’ve done just 3 exceptions, but I realized how our brain can condition us and that dieting effects have a very psicological impact. Why?. Because I was already used to eat early (OK, not that early, but also not late), and with this diet, I think I’m starving late in the night and when I wake up in the morning, and my gastritis pain became so strong!. But I guess is something that my mind can control and will go away by the time I get used to it. Let’s see the positive aspects: my belly will get flatter, I guess; I wanna clear that IT IS NOT MY GOAL THIS MONTH (altough it wouldn’t be bad; at least, that is what many food and fitness websites say – http://www.eatingwell.com/nutrition_health/nutrition_news_information/3_reasons_to_eat_dinner_early?page=2 – but actually I couldn’t find any scientific research about it, so let’s see if it’s true), but summer is coming, so it’s time to get ready for the bikini challenge!, I hope I’ll digest better and feel lighter. Let’s wait a few days more….
Changing subject, today I had a conversation with some classmates about the influence of blogs and social media on people’s minds. That conversation started because I was talking about” the diexploration” project, and I have to say that we love the fact that people is following us, but this is very subjective; of course, you are free to take in consideration what you think is useful, but this is about the way we feel and may be we can help somebody…We are glad with people’s critics, cause that actually makes us stronger, but personally, I’m feeling so well doing this and it is normal that sometimes my body and/or my mood can be up or down, since I’m concious that changing eating habits every month is not so good for our bodies.
Thanks for all the comments and I’ll tell you soon how my belly is going!!!
