Experiment Eve

Well I guess I'm actually doing this.

I'm nervous, excited, scared and questioning myself all at the same time.

At first I thought I should make the start date mean something. You know, like the 6 months before my birthday or something. Or From July 1st until January 1st. But after using and abusing 'tomorrow' too many times I decided the best time to start is now. After all there's no time like the present right?

I have done some research and hope to do my best to fulfill my commitment to 'eat clean' for the next 6 months of my life. I know that there will be times when it won't be easy or even possible to be 'perfect', but I want to use this space to be accountable for my actions and share how I cope with this system of eating.

My hope is to document my struggles, challenges and temptations during this time in order to help myself and anyone else out there reading overcome something that has nagged me for years - my eating.

If you are reading and have a story - PLEASE SHARE!!! I would love to learn something from you and/or be an encouragement to you. I know first hand how profoundly changed a person can be on either side of the battle over weight.

As I go along I will share stories from my past, new things I'm learning and any epiphanies I have along the way.

My hope is in 6 months to say 'I am clean'. Clean from my addiction to sugar, clean in how I eat, clean from a negative self image.

Cheers to a successful 6 months!
