Day 8 (day 4)

Well, before jumping into Whole 30 stuff, yesterday's dr appointment was kind of a disappointment.  Test results weren't in, dr couldn't answer a lot of questions, but I am set up to go get 30 different blood tests done and a special US.  Also got the name of a counselor specializing in this stuff, so we are going to look into that.  We are really hoping that all these tests come back normal and we were just unlucky, or that if there is a problem, it is an "easy fix."  I just want this all to be done with!

Now back to food... yesterday I barely ate... I had my banana during 2nd period, and then I had a parent I had to deal with during lunch and also getting the posters organized for my afternoon classes, so I had a few bites of my salad and ate some of my fruit bowl during 5th period.  Then the dr's office was running about 45 minutes behind and our appt went a bit long, and so I didn't get home til about 4:45.  I ate an apple and almond butter, and then when Ryan got home around 7ish, we had grilled chicken, avocado, asparagus, and strawberries.  I had a handful of nuts too to get my calorie intake up bc it was unhealthily low.  Oh!  And I hard boiled eggs :)

Weighed myself this morning, down another .6 of a pound from yesterday.  I'm going to try to stay off the scale now until Saturday.  My pretty awesome hubs is down almost 30 lbs from the beginning of the year and now weighs less than me :/  But he also goes to the gym every day during lunch.  I don't.  I go on a 30 min walk with the dog after school.  So there's that jaja.

With all this emotional / hormonal stuff going on, I honestly don't know what is being caused by what.  My headache is back, but I don't know if that is due to hormones, the lack of additional sugar, the low calories, the pup throwing up and then barking like a crazy pants, my students not doing their work, etc etc.  I'm also very tired, but again... not sure as to the cause.

As for my non-food goals.. I have been in bed around 9... last night it was prob closer to 9:30... but getting up is a different story.  Yesterday I got up about 540, today it was 550.  Tomorrow I will shoot for 5:30 again, but it's so hard!  Jaja.  I'm tired and my motivation is shot.

5 weeks til summer break, the kids are checked out and not doing their work and it is EXHAUSTING to deal with them all day.  On the plus side, I have a job and there's only 5 weeks left til summer.  We are going to Disney Sunday and Monday with my little brother's fam and I am very excited to see them - it's been a little over 5 months!

Now on to today's food

Breakfast - Banana and a hard boiled egg
Lunch - Salad and Fruit bowl
Afternoon snack - Prob an apple with almond buter and/or carrots with guacamole
Dinner - I forgot to take the chicken out of the freezer, so shrimp with "zoodles," olive oil, spinach, and garlic.
