Day 3- doing okay...I think

Quick day reference:

Start Weight: 156
Weigh in: 151.8
Loss: 0
Total Loss: 4.2

Feeling A.M.: slight headache went away when I started drinking water, noticeably irritated. Not as hungry as yesterday, but I was also trying to be a lot more busy this morning then I was yesterday, the distraction must have helped out.

Feeling P.M.: Definitely some mood swings tonight.  Poor kids.  BUT I tried a delicious recipe to curve my sweet craving.  Scroll down for the Cinnamon Truvia Apples recipe.

Journal Log:

I didn't lose any weight which sorta makes me wonder if I did anything wrong.  I'm on day 5 and I woke up feeling a bit grumpy.  I was trying my hardest not to take it out on my kids and husband this morning so I left the house to get the kids some milk for their oatmeal.  The fresh air helped and coming home to the family cleaning up was a plus.  I drank water all morning and kept busy with work, emails and cleaning.  That helped out a lot.  It seemed like the morning went by super quick and all of a sudden it was lunch time and I got to eat. Here is the recipe I tried and I thought it was delicious!  I will have the same thing tonight for dinner switching out the meats so I won't have the same animal twice in one day.
