GM Diet – Day 6

Today started with a visit to the doctor. Apparently this diet is not the sole source of my aches and pains. What I came to find out is that on Christmas Eve, when I slipped on the black ice, I allegedly pulled every muscle in my back (and pulled them REALLY good). It apparently takes some time for pulled muscle symptoms to present so my discomfort is not entirely from starvation. Thank god.

Today should go by quickly now. It’s lean beef and vegetables day. I am going to polish off the rest of the cabbage soup. I’ll probably do a salad with the beef, go to back rehab, and then I plan to rest for the remainder of the day with my pain killers and muscle relaxers. Hey, if I can’t drink alcohol on this diet, prescription meds are the next best thing! Ha ha.

I am not hungry at all this morning, which is a nice change. In fact, I needed to remind myself to eat the food. The diet says I should notice a huge change in the way my body looks today. I don’t know that I saw a huge change but I definately feel better (and I am writing this BEFORE I took the pain killers so those are not the reason I feel better).

The cravings have ceased and the only sign of a headache is from the pain in my back. I did not loose any weight on this day, but I did finally sleep well.
