With no difficulty I was back on the new food plan the day after Christmas! Eating this way makes me less hungry and I feel like overall I am eating less and I crave much much MUCH less sugar and chocolate.
As the foods I plan not to eat run out, I am not restocking them. There's no bread at this point. There's still tortillas and pretzels and crackers. I'm not eating it, and I did throw a bunch of stuff out, but I'm trying to go easy on the kids. They, for the most part, are enjoying the dinners I'm making. So far, so good!
I found a new snack for my evening sweet tooth so I don't drink the hot chocolate every night anymore. I make a cup of hot milk and put in just a little bit of honey and a decaf chai tea bag. YUM!
I also think the 5-HTP is making me feel really good. Not that I didn't feel good before, I just had more mood swings to deal with and I feel much more steady. The other supplements I wanted for myself and dh I ordered online so we are waiting for them to arrive. We are both going to try them for a month.
Today:
breakfast: scrambled eggs with ham
lunch: last night's Mexican Turkey (bone in dk meat cooked in a stew of tomatoes and peppers with chili spices and chocolate)
dinner: carnitas pork with salsa and cheese, peas
I'm really trying to eat very little sugar right now, even in the form of whole fruits as I let everything heal.
