Today was a day of range, starting positive and ending a bit down. I woke up feeling ok, knowing that I needed to pick up my Angel Food from a local church (great food program!). The great thing is that I ordered a fresh fruit and vegetable box that I can use to continue my whole foods diet. I worked out this morning and within 12 hours, I can feel the soreness in my quads. I was invited to a crab boil with some neighbors and actually had a good time. We all shared how we rarely get out and mingle and needed to change that habit. I hired a sitter for Ty and came home later in the afternoon.

By the time early evening came, I found myself becoming more and more agitated. I'm thinking its just PMS. After putting Ty to bed, I began to feel achy in my lower abdominal area. My mood was down and all I could think about was shrimp fried rice. I know that's a bad sign. I had to force myself to get up and make a waffle....anything other than buying shrimp fried rice. I know once I start the "SFR" kick I'll go days without eating properly.

I'm doing my best to stay positive and looking forward. I bought 2 boxes of white tea, one for home and one for the office. I'm trying to restrict my diet to only drinking water, green or white tea, and freshly squeezed fruit/vegetable juice). I'm not sure about the rest of it. I miss meat...the occasional burger (had one today) and Chick-Fil-A. I consumed so much salmon the other week that I don't care to look at fish right now. I think if I research great tasting vegetarian recipes, I'll do better with the vegetarian diet. I can't consistently eat food that I don't like. It just doesn't work. So I'm hopeful. I have a hectic week coming up and pray that my schedule doesn't hinder me from being positive or eating properly. I hope.
