Day one on new diet

-
Today is my first day on the new diet.  It went pretty well, I ate a lot of good food all without sugar and flour.  However I'm eating 6 oz of vegetables at lunch and dinner and I have to say for me that is a ton of vegatation!  I don't know if I can keep that up everyday.  Also after lunch and dinner even though I was pretty full I found that a part of me was still starving!  I recognize it's just the cravings and they aren't getting any food today!  However it is very strange to be feeling full but also hungry at the same time.  I intend to keep track of my weight to see how the new food affects it but I failed to weigh myself this morning, so weight tomorrow.  I've been pretty busy with figuring out food and with revamping my wardrobe.  Kiley got me into the dressing your truth energy profiling, it's fascinating and enlightening.  It is also helping me define my style so I'm doing a 30 day test starting tomorrow.  I'm only wearing the clothing recommended for my energy type and seeing if it really makes a difference or not.  At the end of 30 days I'll put on some of my old favorites and see if it feels different or not.  I had made the decision soon after our utah trip and was worried when I also started to try a new diet.  I thought I might get overwhelmed and the clothes would have to wait.  However I've decided it won't be hard to do, I already have all of my clothes put into one of those wardrobe apps and I love planning my clothes ahead of time so that will make it simple.  Also I've been wearing these clothes most of the time the past month, I've felt pretty good in them so far and haven't felt the desire to wear anything else.  The only remaining concern was having enough clothing to sustain a straight 30 days.  I finally picked up a jacket and today found another pair of pajamas so I believe I have enough stuff.  Actually Mom has been doing it with me, we have been having a blast shopping!  Every time I stop by the thrift store on my way to or from work she comlains I didn't take her with me, would you believe it she likes shopping right now.  Wow long post but hopefully I can post more often and for those of you who can comment get on here more, I want feedback if you've got got time to give it.  Love you all!

    This is great Amber! I'm excited to see what happens with everything. Eating a lot of veggies is hard at first, but you get use to it and then feel like you haven't had enough and will eat more. Trust me! Your body loves it :)

Life Was Not Meant to Be Easy.-Aubrey

I think it is so important to understand that life was never meant to be easy. I have been really struggling lately. Some emotional and some physical, but it is kicking my butt. I have been trying to figure out what I can do to help me, but also properly execute my responsibilities at home as a wife and mother. I have been struggling to even just do the basics without losing my temper or checking out (Aaron has watched quite a bit of tv lately).  I made a check list that is pretty redundant, but it is necessary sometimes with my currant state of mind. It is divided into 4 parts; Personal, Kids, Zach, and Family/House. It has things as little and consistent as prayers and as changing as the specific chores that need to be done that particular day. My checklist haste been a really good way for me to feel like I am getting things done, but also lets me know what I might be neglecting. I noticed this last week that I have put more importance on everybody else so yesterday when I would ...

 Long time no see! Austin and I are finally getting into more of a routine. His class work load is so much easier since switching majors from Mechanical Engineering to Manufacturing Engineering Technology. He's hoping that he might be able to squeeze in a weekend to go hunting this fall, he still needs to call Cameron and talk about it though.  We will be 28 weeks tomorrow, and I am so excited! The weather is starting to cool off, I've got most of our baby stuff washed, organized, and ready to go, and the fall colors are starting to show in the trees! Tonight is our 4/5 hypnobirthing class, and we will be spending the majority learning how to use counterpressure techniques and stuff to help during labor, which I'm pretty pumped about. ALSO, Austin and I both have job interviews on Friday! It's for seasonal positions at Artco (The Occassions Group) making greeting cards for the holidays. They are incredibly flexible with schedules (literally work whenever you want, as th...

 This week is feeling redundant.  I know I still need to get to sleep but I'm so tired of trying and failing so now I want to change my goal.  However, like I said, I still need to get to sleep on time.  So I have as of not yet done much energy work on it and have on many other things which have improved.  Reasons I have failed to use it for this my current goal are many and right now sound like a bunch of excuses so I'm skipping those and today, Monday, am implementing at least one, maybe two techniques.  I will report on any results good or bad and I want progress on this one this week.  I am also going to include it heavily in my prayers, throughout the day if necessary.  This non progress has been the story of my efforts for a long time.  Since I know I'm supposed to focus on it then I am assuming I'm supposed to progress at it.  So here goes this week.  Goals: Planning meeting with God as soon as I am dressed and awake Alarm at...
