R1 Day 25

I think I got my hopes up this morning and I gained 0.5 lbs. I don't know why I do this to myself. I am even considering doing a 40 day round instead of 30 because I think my schedule will permit it. Really, though? This is seriously frustrating!

Today has been another interesting day for me. I had a faux apple pie this morning. It would have been much better had Thing 1 not used up all my cinnamon. It was followed by tilapia with asparagus for lunch, another apple, and chicken with broth and most of a cucumber. I just couldn't eat another bite. I was so stuffed. I know I said that I couldn't/wouldn't do fish but I was hoping that this might make a change for me.

One thing about this diet that I am glad of, I am noticing when I am full and trying to stop if not stopping. It's a good thing. I think that is how I got into this mess. I have no hopes for tomorrow either, I just really hope that I don't gain. That would mean that I'm doing another apple day. I didn't get in nearly enough water again. Thing 3 has been throwing up this weekend so it was a day of chasing kids around with a bowl. Yuck! I really need to make drinking water a priority. I think it would make such a difference for me. I tried to get extra sleep last night but I woke up at 2:00 am freezing in my bed and I just couldn't get warm. I finally had to pull on another blanket before I could sleep. That didn't help as I was shivering for a good half hour. So much for a good night's rest. Maybe tonight?
