I have a major junk food hangover today. Bill and I are serious about getting control of our health and our new plan started yesterday. After two years of just trying to get by and a month of celebrations with food, indulgences of food, and too much Halloween candy, we are setting goals and eating right. It has to happen.
If you have never experienced the crash of too much sugar and junk for too long followed by a few days of healthy eating, you are lucky. Cravings were not bad, but emotions were all over the place. I just wanted the garbage truck to come by so I could just run out and jump in it and have it carry me away.

I think Trevor is feeling the same thing. He recently had so much ice cream, candy, cake, treats, and frozen coke, he has to ‘detox’ too. He was an emotional wreck all day! I guess when the whole family is a wreck, Brendan decided he was in a bad mood too.

It made for a long, exhausting day with lots of crying by all.

The only thing that gets us through is knowing that it is temporary and that it is worth it.
