As predicted, I had a horrible night due to the overindulgence of nuts and raisins yesterday. I woke up around 2 am with my body so hot that the 62 degree room I was sleeping in felt warm. Even after drinking 3 glasses of water, it still took me 2 hours to fall back to sleep again. Just as I was dozing off, my son woke up with a nightmare, and I couldn’t go back to sleep for another hour. I can’t blame anyone but myself though! This is the scripture I am going to meditate on throughout the day.
I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength. Philippians 4:12-13
Since my stomach was still not a happy camper this morning, I waited until 9 am to eat a light breakfast, when I had 2 scrambled eggs and half a banana. I am going to keep things light today and NO NUTS!!!!
I had to go grocery shopping after I picked my daughter up from school, so I didn’t eat lunch until 3 pm. I decided to make my own version of a BLT. I cooked an avocado bun and then topped it with 3 slices of sugar-free bacon, lettuce and tomato. It was delicious!! I paired that with some roasted butternut squash that I had leftover in the fridge.

Leo and I had Date Night tonight, so we decided to go to a movie since I am so restricted on food and can’t drink coffee. Since I ate such a late lunch, I didn’t eat any dinner before we left and it was too late when we got home, so I just had a half banana before going to bed. I didn’t eat any nuts or dried fruit today…success!!
22 days done…8 days to go!!
