When do kids sleep through the night?! If it's not one, it's the other - or
both - keeping me awake at night. I'm a light sleeper and it can take a long time for me to fall back to sleep once awake.
Lack of sleep has been shown to mess up hormones that register hunger and fullness to the brain. I know this is one of my big problems with weight, but it's not exactly something I can change, is it? Maybe being aware of it will help me?
I made my most filling meal this morning, it usually works like a charm to fill me up through lunch, but not so much today. Part of me is just too tired to get up and make anything or to care.
Yesterday {Day 7}, being Valentine's Day went by in a blur of sugar and extra pain from a trip to the physical therapist. I didn't track calories and now I wish I had because I'm curious how I did. The only chocolate I had was one Dove dark chocolate from Hailey. I didn't buy chocolate this year. Now that is a major feat! The third frosted pink lemonade cookie was probably a bit too much, though. :
D Thank goodness I gave the rest away!
Oh, and we made this delicious "Pink Drink."
I poured mine in a very small glass and stopped.
After seconds.
The idea was something I saw on Pinterest (of course!). We just mixed equal parts 7-up and pink lemondade with a little raspberry sherbert. Yum!
