EFFECTS I’VE NOTICED:
Okay, not so bad today. I woke up and had plenty of energy, but my day started with some bumps (hence the flowers I received at the end of the day).  Husband flew out the door to go help my dad build his shed, kids needed to be fed and it was after 10a.m. before I got to start anything for myself. I had no problems staying calm while feeling so hungry. Usually, in the past, I would get nauseated and irritable. Not this morning…
I’m pleased with the way I did today. I had some big obstacles being here. I needed RAW groceries, spent lots of time in the kitchen making meals/snacks for the kids and never caved and ate something I shouldn’t. The kids even watched several episodes of Cake Boss and I didn’t have any crazy cravings! Felt good.
I made it to the store when my husband came home.  It was after dark and I was very hungry.  I grabbed what I needed and came back home.  REALLY wanted to walk back in to the kids being bathed and in bed, but that just wasn't the case.  My sweet honey worked hard bathing them but the babies wanted to be fed and therefore he was doing that rather than cleaning up after their dinner I had just finished when he walked in the door and I left for the store.  It was just a really long day and with it being New Years Eve...well, I just felt a little more munchy than normal.  I decided on some watermelon for my late snack and someone (a very cruel person) had put a piece of cake in with the fruit...hahaha.  I looked at it and decided to take a pic...I thought it was so funny.  Obviously, I chose the watermelon...
I’m hungry going to bed…and I’ve been battling a slight headache (tired I think) but overall…it’s been a decent day that I’m ready to put to bed.  Happy New Year!!!  I gladly welcome 2012!!!
