When one "daydreams a smell", it is when you are suddenly hit with a fabricated scent that your brain is sending to your nostrils. I literally sat at my desk and had to convince myself that there were no bagels around and that it was all in my head even though I actually could taste it in my mind.
It is funny how powerful the mind can be when you are on a low-calorie, very strict diet. But overall, I am feeling well. I feel hungry at times but not horribly starving nor do I have my usual headache that accompanies my hunger. I did a little exercise on Sunday and felt great afterwards and generally have been monitoring my food intake, trying to stay within the guidelines of this madness. But I must admit that I am enjoying finding creative ways of cooking without certain ingredients (no oil with the Tilapia? Use Chardonnay!) and find that once I can get passed the breakfast hunger, that lunch and dinner becomes easier! 39 days left!
