Good Things:
Great food choices today, got in my kale!
Great workout on the wii after lunch
All my water in
Kept up with schooling and choring, mostly

Not So Good Things:
Only exercised once instead of with each meal

We watched Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead tonight, the children and I.  It was pretty neat to see Dr. Furhman on there. I didn't even know he was featured on that documentary.  I was pleased to see that what I'm doing can create so many positive changes.  It was a great encouragement when I've been starting to feel a little defeated and alone in this.

I'm concerned for my husband, but I need to just keep bringing that to the Lord in prayer.  I'm know the children are newly motivated to keep pressing on with the good choices I've been making. Benjamin even came and told me that he thinks I've lost a lot of weight since the last couple of years after looking at photos.  That made me feel good. :)

I will say, it's easy to want to give up and just go back to living life the easy way.  I'm still struggling at times to like the foods I make and not wish for the tastes I enjoy.  I'm not sure how long this will take, but I'm really hoping I can enjoy more of what I eat soon.  The salads are getting harder to chew.

I AM so grateful that I FEEL so much better and have more energy.  I know that I'm putting GOOD food in my body and that my body is healing because of it.  I just need to get my tongue and mouth sensors to agree that what I'm eating tastes as great as it feels.
