feeling lighter
Posted Thursday, March 4, 2010 at 6:52 AM

hi everyone,
i dont know if its just me, but i feel lighter. I wouldnt necessarily say I lost weight(i havent weighed myself) but not as weighed down. Everystep I take feels less effortless and I almost feel like im walking on a cloud, its great. Is anyone else feeling this way? Is this what healthy feels like? If it is I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!
this is the best feeling, and not to mention all the food ive eaten so far has been amazing!!

OMG I just said in another thread that I feel lighter...I dont think I lost anything but yes I feel lighter and as if my digestion is cleaner...is anyone else becoming more "regular"
I LOVE THIS NEW WAY OF EATING!!! Laughing

That is definitely one of the side effects. I feel like my body is functioning the way it's suppose to, in a healthy way.

I will caution you, if you do go "off" your body will tell you loud and clear!

HEY JENNY! YES I FEEL THE SAME WAY!

It sort of feels like i have been deflated internally, like my organs can breathe better (if that makes sense.) I look at myself in the mirror and i think of my self as thinner, even though I have no idea yet if I lost anything. I just feel healthier inside, and I am starting to crave veggies, something that I have never done.

I made the creamy broccoli soup on Tuesday night, and not being a big fan of broccoli, I wasn't looking forward to forcing myself to eat a whole cup of it. Well let me just tell you - I absolutely love it, and have been bringing it for lunch the past 3 days! It's amazing how cutting out dairy (I have been Vegetarian for a few months) creates new and healthy cravings!

So far I am loving this vegan lifestyle!

I feel that lightness too. Going up and down stairs, which used to sometimes be a struggle, is much easier already. I also feel more energetic and alert. It's great! And I know it's going to get even better!

I have been vegan since the last Kickstart. I have not lost any weight, and have not gained any either. But, I feel that my body is different and that I have more energy than I had before. It is hard to explain this new feeling, but it is great.
