Earlier today I realized that I have made it to day 21 of going without any
type of cheese on my "30-Day No Cheese Challenge". I would have never thought I
could go this long without it. But I won't sit here and say that I haven't been
tempted a few times because I have. However, it makes me so proud of myself
that I haven't given in up to this point. Besides, I actually feel much better without it.
I decided to do this challenge for health reasons as well as weight loss. During my last doctor visit, he informed me that my cholesterol reading wasn't a good one. Now I'm not making any excuses but I've struggled with cholesterol issues for some time now as it runs in my family: my parents, younger sister, and maternal grandmother all deal with the same struggle and we all take medication(s) for it. I automatically knew my #1 culprit was cheese which has been my weakness for as long as I can remember because I usually eat it on nearly everything.
During this challenge, it has made me realize that I can truly discipline myself in other areas of my life now that I've struggled with in the past. This is a great thing for my well-being.
I only have 9 more days to go on this journey. And who knows...maybe I won't even want any more cheese after I get past day 30! :)
