Shelley: Day 45

Today was a total energy struggle. We have been doing CIO and Will actually did pretty well last night but I feel guilty and worry that he is uncomfortable in perhaps a wet diaper, etc. so I struggled to sleep.

We had a really slow morning and then headed to the store. I had one of my favorite lunches, Dr. McDougall's Ramen Chicken Flavor. It's much lower in sodium than many other ramen type items and lower in calories as well. It's extremely filling and only 200 calories. The best part, it's super fast. When I don't think I'll be able to keep myself from eating a chair or a steering wheel;) it's my go to. You can usually find it in the natural foods section of the grocery store but I've never tried to find it anywhere but California so no promises to our friends who are out of state.

I was a little naughty at the grocery store. I love those stupid potato wedges and I'll fess up I totally bought a small handful. I shared with Will but still, I know, not good. I went ahead and bought a sami with grilled chicken for Will and I to share as an early dinner.

Here comes the math. . .
