Day ONE!!

WHAT did I get myself into...  haha, no.. really.  I love coffee more than ever, now that I havn't had any in over 24 hours...
So, yesterday morning didn't start off too bad, I wanted some coffee, yes, but it wasn't too hard to resist.  Didn't get a chance to go the grocery store the day before to prepare for this, so unfortunately I had to skip a breakfast, since I had nothing on the "okay" list to eat, so I went to the store, and got a TON of fruits, veggies, nuts, and beans, and the clerk was probably thinking I was some sort of freak... anyway, came home and made the yummiest salad EVER!  Really, the yummiest.  It was: (something I just made up) but, 1 c baby spinach, 1/2 c alfalfa sprouts, 1/3 c blueberries, 1/4 c sunflower seeds, 2 huge strawberries, and a Tbs olive oil.  YUM.  so far, it's the ONLY thing I look forward to eating. Even my kids asked for some and ate their own.
After that, I somehow got myself to do an hour of pilates, which the kids also had fun doing with me... they tried their best, but after what I saw, I think I might make it mandatory that they do it with me everyday, lol. 
Okay, so meanwhile, I'm drinking way more water than normal.... which very unhealth-aly sad to say, the only water i recall drinking on a normal basis was the water I added to my coffee, then some before bed.  So yeah, this is hard for me to remember to drink the water.  But I've been putting lemon slices in it, and that's yummy.
Now comes 4:00, and I'm making delicious food for supper for my very lucky family :) and I'm still doing okay, no cheating...  but this is the time of day when I fill up my coffee cup again before I head out to work.  Now you'd think that the most important cup of coffee, or most difficult not to have would be the first cup, the morning cup.  But apparently not.  All of a sudden like a force of violent nature, came the headache... full impact, all at once.  Bam, here I am, drink some coffee!!!!  But no, i refused... and went to work, grumpy and in pain, with my bags of veggies in hand.  grrr.
Two hours into work, my feet are REALLY dragging, and if I close my eyes for a second I will be out like a light... this is not good.  Well, the doctors had a meeting last night, and when that happens, they order catering... which is absolutely delicious... and alas, temptation got the best of me and I had a tiny cookie. *sigh.  It tasted so good. 
So that was the first day, got home, fell right to sleep, and now on to day two... which so far isn't going too bad, NO HEADACHE currently!! which is awesome, but I'm sure it will be coming.  But I really am craving some naughty food. 
I'm expecting to lose quite a bit of water weight during this, seeing as how I CRAVE AND LOVE salty foods, all the time, love it!!  And how I never drink water, so I'm just pretty much a water balloon, lol, so now that I'm not eating salt, and drinking tons of water, I'm sure it will all come out. 
I'm 5'3 starting weight at the beginning of day one is 113 lbs.
weight the morning of day two is 110.

If you imagine yourself to be a wild animal, living to survive, eating plain veggies, fruits and nuts really isn't so bad...
