My Third Day 2


Woke up this morning not thinking about coffee for the first time in awhile.  I'm enjoying my tea.  I like it really hot though and it seems to cool off so fast, I need to put it in a travel mug but not sure I'm ready to deal with the association of my mug and my coffee that used to travel in there.  I cooked up some sausage links and made sweet potatoes in the oven (I had more than two sausage links, ate a couple while I was making them).  I also had a little bowl of chicken broth. 


Jack woke in the middle of the night with a fever and a cough.  We were resting and watching a show and he threw up all over.  This morning he was pretty sick and I felt a little crummy so I wanted to have a nice breakfast.  Jack ate some of my carrots from my soup and a couple bites of sausage.  At least he has an appetite.  

For lunch today I reheated those chicken legs that were under cooked in the oven for 15 more minutes.  I also had some more sweet potato, sauerkraut and broccoli.  By the time I finished getting my lunch ready, jack was crying and tired so I had to kinda scarf it down.  Even though I spend time prepping my food it takes a good amount of time to warm it up!  



During lunch today I prepped our pulled pork that was going to be for dinner.  I made some cauliflower to go with mine.  I was going to make a salad but needed to wash the lettuce and jack was not cooperating at the time.  I have some leftover pork to have for lunch the next day or so!


I'm enjoying all the veggies that I'm eating.  Sometimes it seems I'm eating the same stuff over and over again but it feels too risky for me to try other things.  Maybe once I start to heal I will branch out a little more.  I had grapes for dessert.  

I look forward to reading my Day 3 email in the morning.  I'm really proud of myself for sticking with this another day.  At one point I said maybe I should start over when I'm feeling better.  But immediately after I thought that I decided now more than ever it's important to eat clean because sugar feeds viruses.  I'll recover faster if I eat healthier foods.


Day 3 here I come!
