DAY 2 - Pre Diet Stage

As I reflect about my journaling of day 1, I have noticed that I am rather self conscious about having to write down every bite. This is a good thing! Every time I go to eat something I think, if I eat that I am going to have to tell everyone...do I really want to? It really hasn't stopped me from eating anything thus far but the pause for thought seems like a spark of progress!
