Reactions

Food: The food was all very good. My family had the same dinner as I did. I just added soba noodles to their serving. The Greek Salad surprised me the most. I didn't think I was going to like it but I loved it! I had 14 cups of water on day seven.

Body: Been feeling good, for the most part. I haven't been sleeping well for the last few nights. I think it could be allergies. Spring is amazing. 

I was super grumpy on day seven. My poor family had to put up with me all day. I realized this morning why evil mommy came out to play. It is, what we lovingly refer to that one time a month, "shark week". Yay me.
