I was a little short on cals today but I felt GREAT! I went for a 2mi run and stayed at a pretty good pace. I need to get a watch so I can track my split times. After I was done I thought to myself, 'should I do it again?' but it was getting dark so I decided to call it a night.

I can't even begin to express how much my mood has changed in the past 3-4 days. I was feeling so aggravated, annoyed, and grumpy before! Poor banana man was taking the brunt of it. He's so supportive, he never gets mad, just lets me go through whatever I'm going through and hangs on until I snap out of it. He's such a great guy, probably the only guy who would put up with me and my attitude!

Anyway, the point is I feel like 80/10/10 has just snapped me right out of my funk! It's not just the food, it's also the emphasis on sleep, sunlight and exercise that are a vital part of the program. Last year 80/10/10 just seemed so extreme and impossible. I lasted about a month (I wasn't doing it right) and then I gave up. This time around everything makes sense and I feel like I am really thriving. I haven't felt this way on raw for quite some time now. So I am genuinely excited to see how things evolve from here!
