Some things to note.

Yesterday for the first time in weeks, my body finally felt like it was changing. This is pivotal really, as I don't judge the scale on this sort of thing. It doesn't matter much to me what the scale says (although yes, I do get frustrated when it doesn't budge for months) or what the tape measure reads. What is important is how I feel and I haven't felt any difference in months.

Yesterday felt like a turning point. My clothes felt baggier and my body felt slimmer. It was a good feeling. This morning the scale reflected that feeling and I hit a number I haven't seen since October. It still doesn't really mean much quite yet. I won't be satisfied until I'm feeling great consistently, but for now this feels amazing.

The other thing I want to note is that this morning I had chest pains. Sometimes I get this when I haven't eaten. I think it's a reflux thing. Might be a kidney thing. I'm not exactly sure. The difference this morning though is that it came while I was eating. That has never happened before.

I hadn't yet taken my enzymes, so I decided not to take them. I took a break while I had that feeling in my sternum and once it subsided, I resumed eating slowly. The feeling came back. I took another break. Eventually I ate two of my three eggs, half of my black beans and all of the broccoli and cauliflower.

This afternoon I'm going to take it easy with food. I'm having a can of salmon with some black beans for a late lunch. I'll see how I feel after that. I'm not worried about it yet, but I wanted to type it all up here so I didn't forget. Also, I think I'm getting sick. It hurts to swallow. Otherwise things are good!
