This has been one of the roughest weeks of my life. Luckily, I have the greatest husband and daughter in the entire world. But, with all the physical and emotional pain that I have been experiencing, my husband and I decided that it was time to try out a new diet. So, let’s take a difficult week and make it worse.
We’re doing the Sonoma Diet, which is kind of neat. My husband likes it because it is California/Mediterranean style food and because after the first 10 days, it includes a glass of wine with dinner. Anyone who has dieted before knows that drinking on a diet is normally a big no-no, since wine slows your metabolism, but not this one, so he picked it.
We’ve been on it for a day and a half now and the food has been pretty good. It’s killing me all of the cooking I have to do, and I’m always hungry, but it’s a diet. That’s the way it is supposed to be. I just need to figure out how to change around the foods so that I’m not cooking morning, noon, and night. And, so I can use the leftovers, instead of letting them rot in the refrigerator.
The bad news of this diet is that my husband has already lost 4 pounds, and I’ve gained 4 pounds. Tell me how that’s fair!!!
My daughter is amazing through everything, though. She finally has a table and chairs to sit at and so she throws tea parties all day now. Her vocabulary continues to grow and grow. She’s more and more demanding with what she wants. She’s just perfect! And, when I start to think about what has happened this week, I just look at her and am thankful that I am so lucky to have such a beautiful and perfect little girl.
