Just needed those calories =)

I've been sugaring all day.  Woke up kind of depressed (why?  beyond me, but I know that it's not PMS.  all the same I was some-kind-of-irritable last night.  It was positively comical how irritable I was.  I giggled about it with a friend this evening, in fact.)  At any rate, sugared all morning and started on real food in the afternoon.  By the time 6:00 rolled around I was home and starved for more something.  Had a serving of lasagna (I know you want to know this) then dessert (I might have got that order backwards) and milk (I don't usually consume a lot of milk).  So that was good and then I was bored and couldn't figure out what to do and wasn't feeling quite well, yet.  Finally said "what the hay" and started with another slice of lasagna followed by dessert (might have gotten the order backwards) and lot more milk.  I think I might do that "down a gallon of milk" that people do for dares, on accident tonight.   Anyhow.  I felt SO much better after that second round.  All my feeling slightly under-par and can't-decide-what-to-do-with-myself really translated to "needs more calories, honey."  And so it was and is that I begin to feel better (after feeling a little guilty at first for having two servings of dessert this evening.  Not that such things usually bother me at all, but tonight I felt kind of guilty initially).
And now that I've recounted that story, I'm going to head up and have another glass of milk (which I may regret later this evening).  And maybe I'll weigh myself before I climb into bed, 'cause I bet I clear 110 tonight..   la la la.
And progesterone is a Good thing, I'm thinking..  The female hormone that makes us like to eat.

Did I tell you how irritable I was last night?  My husband came in once I was trying to sleep (and I'd taken 2 benadryl b/c I REALLY needed my rest) and opened the window.  There was virtually no sound outside except a calm rush of a cool breeze.  I swear, though, that was the loudest breeze I had EVER heard - EVERY bit as annoying as the most obnoxious party we have ever had to listen to.  I had to get up and close the window half-way - I just couldn't stand it.  And it went downhill from there..
^^

I knew it was irrational (it was funny - except that it WASN'T funny - and I still don't know what the problem was).
Anyhow, I guess I'll rest this weekend (maybe do some yoga - that's probably what I'm lacking), and take up gardening or something..
I've taken so many pictures of what I've cooked this week.  I was planning on sharing them, but I haven't uploaded them yet.  You want to see parsley tea?  and spinach quiche minus crust with a lot of mexican hot sauce and trimmings?   I think I also took a picture of some guacamole I made.  I can't remember, though... green green green.
You know what?  The two year old LIKED the lasagna until he saw the green in it!  Just one small layer of spinach - that's all it took - and he had had enough.  Imagine!  punk kid.  =P
Same with the 6 yr old, "This is not my favorite!"
Back to the pureeing vegetables into the tomato sauce....  dum dum dum
I hope I sleep all day this weekend.
Goodnight!  =)

  3. I'm sorry you're feeling depressed and irritable. I hope you keep eating and get some major calories in you.

    I'd like to see the photos of the food you made.

    That's funny about your kids and vegetables.

  4. I'm definitely going to try to eat while I'm off to get my haircut just now.
    Yes, my kids are punks about vegetables. I don't know where they get it from....
