I knew it would be challenging, but I'd forgotten just how challenging. Two more days of fighting the urges (more so than the hunger), and I should be alright. I'm an addict coming off the hooch. Carb binging for the past few months has my body all crazy. I feel empty and I sometimes confuse that with hunger. I was also pretty cranky and had to remind my eldest that my body was looking for all the things it had during the holidays. She tried to be understanding. As soon as I had my dinner, I was better.
Looks like the eating I did yesterday made a difference. I would have guessed a bigger gain this load, but I'll take it. Going to bed on time is going to help too, but that's hard when hubby works 12 hour days and I only see him later in the evening. I'll figure it out.
I drank a lot of tea and coffee today. I suppose I'd better get used to having the mad, passionate love affair with the potty again. That should subside after a few days as well. Here's what I had today (hoping it makes for a big loss tomorrow):
An airy, forty-something water-bearer that marches to the beat of her own drum. I'm a wife, a mother of two and avid animal lover. I also love to travel and may one day make that part of my profession.
