Whole30: Day 9

After what felt like a sharp dip in mood, I decided to give the Whole30 another shot.

Back in September, some co-workers and I set out to eat fruits, veggies, and meat (and some oils) per the Whole30 (whole30.com). I lasted, last time, until Day 10…at which point our annual town celebration began and I when to a wine tasting and had fried chicken πŸ™‚

Not eating treats really shines a light on how often I use food to cope with stress! All the old crap from the past came back up.

It was like cleaning a fish tank.

I’m starting to feel the benefits yesterday and this morning, though! I realized that I haven’t been snapping at my kids and I’m only mildly emotional.

Normally, Sam and I go round and round about what’s for breakfast in the morning. If there’s more than one kind of cereal…he gets stuck in a loop and will change his mind several times before deciding…wonder where he gets that from ; )

This morning, I asked him to get dressed before breakfast and I made him this:

He ate it all and I even made him an extra egg!

Hugs!!!
