This darn flu is still hanging on.........
I am resting....resting...and more resting..... I am so tired of feeling tired! Atleast the nausea part seems to be gone these last couple of days. I don't know if that is really a good thing. I seem to be eating too much now. I am just laying here feeling like

and so every few hours I end up reaching for some kind of comfort food, chocolate, oatmeal, grits, more chocolate, bread, dessert, more bread, french fries..... lots of bad for me calories on the whole..... TOM also came yesteday.AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
So here come the cramps today.
Ever since my last baby was born and I had my tubes tied my periods have been awful

. I think being on the pill for years kept them under control. Now my body doesn't know how to react. Its awful. Major cravings, major cramps


. Its horrible every month for a few days. I almost want to go back on the pill just to regulate it out, even though I don't need it for birth control anymore. I may have to talk to my doc about this. I just have to have to pay for a medication that I don't really need any more.
I am really feeling sorry for myself today.
I want to feel healthy. I want to be back to me. I want to run today. I want to go to my yoga class at 3:30. I want to feel like eating lots of fruits and veggies and being back on my healthy eating plan. When I am sick all I want is comforting foods. I don't want to touch a salad. NO WAY.
If I can just stay away from the sugar. That is my goal for today. NO SUGAR. atleast no added sugar.
I did have Jason make a healthy crockpot dinner that I had planned already for today, before I was sick I had done all of the shopping. Luckily it was an easy fix, and its healthy. Crockpot Jambalya---with shrimp and chicken--and lots of veggies---will serve over brown rice. It will be healthy and sounds good and comforting to me. So maybe today I can do comfort and healthy at the same time.
I have done good so far.
For breakfast I had my fav grits bowl.--protein and fiber and whole grain!!!!---GRits, jennie-o sausage pattie, 2% kraft cheese, eggbeaters---300 calories of yummy comfort food!!!!!!
I will have yogurt for a snack in a little bit.
Diva pancake for lunch.
omlet later maybe for snack????
Jambalaya for dinner!
I hope I can stick to my plan today. I sure haven't been able to all week. If I am not in a routine, if I am not busy and moving I cannot seem to be good. I just am not going to be hard on myself. TOday is a new day and I will plan to try anew!
