DAY 4

I found myself in the midst of a dark and dangerous place. The wheels screeching around me...the cries of pain. Survival of the fittest at work as they fought for the things they loved. The ground giving them no mercy as they fell, overwelmed and ready for sleep. But sleep would not yet come, for the florescent lights above had drove them mad...they ran in complete delirium. They are cut throat. Harsh. Unforgiving.

They are toddlers.

Yes I found myself in the middle of a very intense situation this morning, otherwise known as "family open gym". It's amazing how cute tiny children can be so cruel to one another. Stealing a ball here, ramming someone's ankle there, taking the cool bike from the smaller kid....it's incredible really.

I have more thoughts on this...but I'll save it for my blog that has nothing to do with bodily functions, like this one does.

Now, as for this whole Candida business:

The awesome thing about family gym is that it's right across the street from my favorite restaurant (one of them anyway) Laughing Planet Cafe. This cafe sports plenty of organic, carb free, healthy options for those of you with sensitive systems. Won't kill your wallet either.

So now the kids are sleeping. I just finished up all my household chores (laundry, picking up toys, handwashing bottles, preparing dinner...fun stuff) and so I'm doing a quick blog about the day.

To some it up? This diet really sucks for me right now. You really have to stay so focused. It's so easy to cheat. But so far I've yet to cheat and I feel pretty good despite some minor vomiting today. Really can't complain, I'm already seeing improvement and I truly believe this is going to work. I feel pretty energized today as well. No crashing...like yesterday.

Things I've focused on:
1. More veggies
2. More water
3. eliminated nuts and soy cheese (for now)

I feel content.

  1. Hmm... this open gym situation sounds frightening. A glimpse into our future as these selfish delinquents run our world amok? You'll find me in a remote cabin in the Montana wilderness should this downward spiral continue. I wish you the best of luck and Godspeed, Jennifer.
