day 73. for me there's no turning back from this road now. it's done me a world of good so far, my body and my mind feel amazing, i regret not doing it sooner, but in a word it's hard. i've never smoked, so i can't compare it to quitting cigarettes. but it isn't easy. because when you think about the place refined sugar holds in our lives, you're reshaping not just your diet but your social life too. staying indifferent to the smell of cake drifting in from the kitchen. zeroing in on just the cheeses and the like at a beautiful spread-out sunday brunch. not reaching for gels, chocolate, and so on during a run. keeping your distance from the redbull they hand out at a marathon/half marathon, and so forth. it takes major concentration. i wish i could go back 20 years to make this decision.
