Day 4: I'm Oprah, Anger for Everyone!


Oh day 4, you so silly.

Breakfast was mostly scraps, but it tasted very good. Eggs with salsa. Filling and tasty.

Lunch  was leftover chicken with roasted veg in a curry sauce, very good once again (I regretted it later).

Most of the day I felt fine, not as energetic as I was on day 3. By the end of the day I felt a little foggy, I had some *warning TMI* diarrhea from the curry -ouch- I was hungrier between meals (which I read later that it means my body wanted the energy i.e. sugar I was providing to it for energy), I had some anxiety at breakfast over what I was going to eat and I was becoming overwhelmed easier than normal.

Dinners are a struggle, apparently. I got off work and had to immediately go to my daughter's school event and so I didn't really have time to prepare something (I want to mention that they had cookies, however I had no desire to eat them. yay me!) My husband wanted to go to Wendy's after so we did, however we were greeted by unfriendly line cutting JERKS *ahem* anyway...and I didn't really want to order anything due to the the fight freeze or flee response - of which I have the one like a gazelle-my hind end was not staying there very long!! So both of them were fed and I went to the store to get something to eat.

At least, I thought I was.

I ended up purchasing a sugar and preservative laden rotisserie chicken (really, Dillon's?), which I couldn't eat. I was DEVASTATED. I was frustrated, it had been a VERY long day and I wanted nothing better than to just eat yummy chicken that I didn't have to cook.

I broke down. I was done. I walked off into my room and I started crying. So frustrated, hating life. It seems like day 4 was starting early, per the whole 30 book.

My sweet husband took the chicken back to the store, and brought me back a whole, uncooked, farm raised no hormone chicken for me to roast for tomorrow, and what he thought was endives (he got escarole).

I ended up eating seaweed snacks and a fizzy water (with essence of fruit-it's amazing), and I vegged out and went to bed. I couldn't wait for the day to be DONE.
