Bye-bye, yummy holiday food.
Wednesday, December 27, 2006
Man-o-man, have I eaten loads of junk over the past few days! Cookies....fudge....chocolate fondue w/ pound cake, candy, egg rolls, deep fried squash....french toast and grilled cheese made with (gasp!) white bread....biscuits and sausage gravy....the list goes on. All these things wouldn't be so bad, if I hadn't eaten such large quantities of them and had at least intermingled them with some fresh vegetables.
I want to sink back into my normal, relatively healthy eating habits today. So far, so good. I've had a bowl of cereal and a protein smoothie made w/ eggwhite protein powder, super green food supplement, echinacea, frozen fruit, and orange juice. Now, I think I'm going to eat some celery and carrots w/ natural peanutbutter and maybe some french toast....with NO maple syrup (even though we have all-natural 100% maple syrup, I need to wean myself off of this holiday sugar binge). Then, maybe I'll have a spinach salad w/ sunflower seeds and cheddar cheese.
I'd also like to do better with the quantity of water I drink. I still drink a lot of water, but I've slacked off with measuring and knowing FOR SURE that I'm getting at least 100 oz of water in a day.
I just called my midwife to get the phone number of the Bradley childbirth class instructor that we are going to use. I believe it is a 12 week course, so we probably need to get started as soon as we can. She's really good about returning my calls right away, so I'm sure I'll hear something from her soon.

THANK you so much for posting the Bradley link! It was so helpful and I'm due in April too... so we need to get going on this huh?? The instructors I called from your link were all pleasant and informative... but some were already booked and said it was too late to sign up. I found one that may work! The classes are expensive, but I think it will be worth it! Another type of theory of classes that look sensational are the 'birthing from within' classes... so if your Bradley series doesn't work out-- maybe give them a try! I look forward to hearing about your classes!! :)
