The weather predictions indicated rain for today and tomorrow (Thursday). I envisioned lovely, warm spring storms with quiet thunder to soothe me to sleep. Well, what I got was blustery gusts of white stuff blowing in my eyes and up my nose.. What happened to my spring? I woke up frozen this morning and felt like winter had returned. I drove to work with limited visibility and never saw the sun once all day. Granted, we typically have one or two snow storms in the early part of spring but I really wasn't expecting what we go today.
Cold = Cravings. I craved hot tomato soup and grilled cheese, I wanted clam chowder and cocoa. Cold brings on memories of warm, comfort foods. It was a difficult day. Drinking warm drinks helped and L-glutamine in the late afternoon made a huge difference. I hope this snow high tails it out of here by tomorrow. I seem to have more strength when there's sun. So, I guess now I'm Superman...needing the sun for strength?
Oh, but I had a loss at least: .8lbs today. Sweet! Here's what I had today:
