With some help I am cutting back a little on the caffeine (well coffee) and trying to keep it to 16 oz a day instead of the probably 32 that I had been consuming. I am also a little more focused on trying to get in more water. My poor little dehydrated body.
I went through my cookbooks (a few of them) and wrote down healthy meals that sounded tasty and easy. After doing that I separated them main ingredient so that things with a common main ingredient would be easy to spot. This really helps with the grocery shopping. For example, I have 3 or 4 different dishes/salads that use rotisserie chicken as the main ingredient. Because it is just me and my son, one chicken will make all of those meals. So 6.00 one time and I have nearly a weeks worth of dishes. :) I felt very accomplished and ready to tackle dinner and lunch for this week.
I have eaten out twice, but both times I got a salads.
I have also however, made and eaten cinnamon rolls with cream cheese frosting and they were DELISH. Absolutely worth it :) I am really balancing out my crazy sugar overload so once I come off of the detox I am sure I will feel much better. Right now, I just miss it.
Work...well it's work. I am doing my best to keep a positive outlook. Feels better to put the good out there. I did have to take a day off when I wasn't feeling well and apparently missing a day a month the past 3 months is considered excessive so I have had a "clarifying discussion" I am sorry that this cold and flu season has been hideous to my household, but I refuse to spread that to the 600+ other employees....thanks though.
