Hey Kuromi, lol thanks, yep you are right it was a pure craving I remember I read this awesome article when I was on LT a few months ago, and it was talking about the difference between actual hunger and a craving, because for me I never knew the different but then going through the symptoms, it was clear that cravings come at time of stress or boredom (I was driving home from work after a stressful and shattering day), and I hadn't had my evening shake to stabilise me... so I was glad that I was able to not fold. I think having this 6 week goal in my head is what is really pushing me, because 6 weeks is nothing! and I truely believe the mantra "a moment on the lips, lifetime on the hips" lol because once that few moments of flavour of chewing is gone, and you swallow the food there is no going back! unless I i force it back up and that's definately not an option! lol
after about 3-4 weeks, I think the benefits of it become really visible which is even more encouraging, I remember last time when i get to week 4 I was on such a high, but then we had a bereavement in the family and had to stop! but god willing this time i'm going for it, I feel more motivate the second time around then the first! strange because they say the 2nd time can be the hardest (in which case this is probably my 4th time) lol as I did try a couple of times but only managed like 2-3 days, but I feel my mind is in the right place now!
How many weeks are you planning to stick with it?
