but I think I'm turning into one. I've successfully quit caffeine now. Lately (i.e. the past few months) I've been making a lot of healthier choices in my life. These changes all seem to be creating a domino effect of sorts. For example.
I decided that I was going to get back into running. This made me swear off of the chicken wings and fried foods.
Then my brother had a heart attack. I began to eat even more consciously, choosing whole grains, making sure to get my recommended servings of fruits and vegetables in every day.
I've also subscribed to a running magazine, which gives me all sorts of diet and lifestyle tips. I think that this may have been where I first happened upon the idea of giving up caffeine.
So today, I find myself on day 3 (or 4, not sure) of being caffeine free. I checked out some websites on tips to help me beat it, and they have all suggested plenty of fruit and vitamin c in particular, avoidance of sugars and starches, stick to whole grains.
So earlier today I was reading the ingredients on some 12 grain bagels we bought. In the past I've had to choke these things down, they disgusted me. But today I was reading the ingredients: rolled oats, sunflower seeds, millet...and my mouth actually started to water. It seems that I've developed an appetite for this stuff. Seems I'm in the throes of a paradigm shift at the moment. I just hope I can remain relatively normal.
