I don't even know what day I'm on and my attitude this morning is - I don't really care! I know, it's terrible. And I have no reason to be in a bad mood, it's a beautiful Saturday morning, I got to sleep in really late, the living room is clean so I can just sit and read. Wonderful, right?!
But this morning I have been overly tired and irritable. And the more I think about it, I've felt this way for quite a while now. It seems like everything my husband says to me produces an involuntary eye-roll. What is going on?! And I'm not pregnant - that's for darn sure.
It surely has to do with my eating habits because this is not a uncommon feeling, but it is new that it has been so consistent and so overwhelming. When I look at my meal plan the past few weeks, the thing that stands out most is protein. I'm getting plenty of carbohydrates and (too many) fats - but still not enough protein. I've gone without wheat, dairy, and various other things in the past - but I've never gone without meat for this long.
My conclusion: it's time to reintroduce meat (of all forms) and see if the symptoms subside.
Yesterday's meal plan:
BREAKFAST
Cantaloupe
Blueberries
Strawberries
Honey and Pecan Pieces
LUNCH
Sauteed Spinach and Red Bell Peppers
2 Whole Fried Eggs with 2 Egg Whites
DINNER
Vegetarian Shepperd's Pie (delicious!)
LATE NIGHT SNACK
Reisling
Piece of Bittersweet Chocolate :)
I honestly can't remember if I had my mid-day snacks yesterday and it's just so hard to try to think right now. Isn't that awful? I mean, how hard is thinking?! Oh Lord, help me!
