Day 2

Today wasn't that bad of a day. I slept for about 12 hours and took a nap for about an hour. The nap was what I call a "blink sleep"- where you lie down and suddenly the time is an hour later when you swear you were only in bed for a couple minutes. I'm baking banana bread right now, and I don't  know if I'm going to have a piece tonight. I'm over my calories, but it's just so yummy! You know what I'm eating for breakfast tomorrow! Warm banana bread with a bit of butter. I also put chocolate chips in the batter, so it's going to be even better! I went over my calories because i was bad and went to Taco Bell. Geo was in a bad mood and I wanted to do something to comfort him, and I know he takes comfort in food. I didn't know anything else I could do for him.
I woke up in the middle of the night last night with a runny nose, sore throat, sinus pressure and body aches. I took some NyQuil and fell back asleep. This morning I felt fine! I thought that was just awesome. I think that's why I slept so good- the NyQuil. I know that the allergy part of it helped me go to sleep. I don't like that it has alcohol in it, but what can you do? Kids strength doesn't work on me. 
I weighed in officially at 215.2 today. That's down 4 pounds in 3 weeks. It's mostly water weight that I'm losing. I haven't been doing a lot of exercise- stayed inside today for the most part, even though it was a beautiful day. It was in the low 80's and really windy. Hurricane Sandy has passed us but we still have a bit of wind from it. For those of you in the Northeast, please be safe! This isn't going to be pretty. It's going to be worse than Irene. *hugs*

So jealous of you being able sleep 12 hours, I\'d deffo trade my sleep pattern for yours lol

Diets are tricky, its easy to go over ya calories, especially when some foods cry out ya name and beg to be eaten, banana bread looks allot more tasty that letuce...try not to worry if somedays are harder than other, days can be like that, i find its always good to have a treat day, that way the foods ya crave in the week, ya can have on that day, and that way ya know ya having a treat at the end of the week...just a thought.

Keep up the good work!
