So, Sunday night AJ and I got dealthy ill (or so I felt). For 2 nights straight I was up with him as he cried and wriggled in sickly uncomfortableness. But I didn't have anyone to take care of me!! James tried, but he had (has) an extremely important work week this week so I made him go to bed. Anyway, in addition to me being sick, I got bad news on Monday that, in addition to other things, ripped my relaxing vacation out from under me. Doh!
I tell you that, to tell you this: all of this sickness and bad newsness has effected my eating as well. For some reason, whenever I get sick, I crave high fat meals, as well as carbs. Dangerous. In fact, what I always want is a huge thing of Chicken McNuggets and an extra, extra large french fry. High fat-high carb. Anyway, although I did not do that (mostly for fear of my stomach getting angry and making me feel more sick) I did over do the fats yesterday (for example, breakfast: 3 scrambled eggs in bacon grease with cheese melted on top, 4 peices of bacon, 3 mini potatoes with cheese on top, and homemade hollendaise on...all of it. HA!) Yes, fat does not make you fat, but too much of anything (even vegetables) is just plain not good for you. Anyway, the rest of the day I didn't eat much...probably because my breakfast had enough fat to fill me up for a week. Needless to say, I have not work out yet this week.
Yesterday Rachel Parker came over and took Alayna for a few hours so that I could sleep when AJ took his nap. So what I needed! In addition, last night AJ only woke up 2 times so I was able to sleep. I still don't feel 100%, but I think I am on the mend. Plus, the bad news isn't seeming so bad because James and I instantly brought the situation to God and have praying friends praying for us. That is another update for another time...
Anyway, yes, today.....
Breakfast-3 eggs with a little cheese on top. less than 1/4 cup hollendaise sauce on top. Coffee with a wee bit-o-cream.
Snack-leftover steamed broccoli....I don't know why....
Lunch-Skip lunch
Dinner-Good lord, I don't know yet.
Workout-Nothing exciting. Maybe just some squats and pushups....I don't want to over do it to the point that I become sicker.
Goal--Quit getting sick so that I can keep up my eating and workout momentum, for crying out loud!!!!
