Hobbyartist Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 Holy cow. Okay, I just had to get that out.My name is Bekki and I am a hobby artist. I've been rocking the beginners body weight workout, and I love it. I'm all sweaty and gross after each workout, but it makes me feel great.What doesn't make me feel so hot is sugar detoxing. I started my own personal version of the paleo diet on the 4th of December, and that included ditching processed grains and sugar as best I could [i'm sure I'll cheat sometimes, and that's OK]. I find myself craving all sorts of crappy junk food. Don't get me wrong, I still put salt on my food, just not a whole lot and it's sea salt. I have honey in my tea instead of sugar, and I practically worship olive oil [that's something I've done since before I found this site].So, to sum it up, I love working out and feeling strong but I hope this detoxing nonsense is over soon.I don't own a scale, but I don't like my measurements.Bust Waist Hips Butt Thighs Biceps38in 29in 41in 42in 24in 12inI'm aiming to have something like B-35 W-25 H-35 by next year.Week #1 is down!

Tanktimus the Encourager Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 You don't sound too enthused about the Paleo diet, or at least the detox part. Are you sure its for you?

Hobbyartist Posted December 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 I'm so excited about the next challenge! I'm definitely participating.Detoxing is never fun, and I have detoxed off of sugar before. I relapsed before because I had little control over my diet as I lived with my mothers grocery shopping. I figure I'll give this diet at least a month before I decide anything, because I know sugar is mildly addictive and it takes a while to get that out of your system. Thanks for your concern!
