    Grateful that I'm am doing well with The Addictocarb Diet, except found I can't eat the suggested Dreamfield brand pasta (intestinal distress). No pasta at all seems like the plan. No white foods (flour, bread, pasta, sugar, white rice, white potatoes).

    Today I am grateful for a fun business meeting this morning (and that I didn't eat the bagels) and an also fun art journaling group (and that I didn't eat the English muffins).

    Today I am immensely grateful for my boyfriend, Alex, who woke up with me at 6 AM (when he works from home and doesn't have to be up until 9:30 AM ) to make me coffee and breakfast. It was so nice to sit at our kitchen table and spend that time together drinking coffee and catching up on the daily news.

    Today I'm grateful for my close friends who lift me up when I am down. I'm also thankful for my God, Jesus Christ who never leaves nor deserts me in my time of sorrow.

    Today I am grateful that I got 100% on a certification exam for teaching about drawing and painting at Michael's. Hopefully my first classes will be next month. So grateful for opportunities to share the joy of art making.

    Reading a book by Louise Penny where her experienced police chief is frequently "Surprised by Joy". I love that turn of phrase. Grateful that my Wednesday morning class went well. Have an interesting bunch of students this term.

    I am grateful that my perspective on certain aspects in my life have been duly noted and although I may fight reality sometimes and hate change I realize certain things in life need to be shaken up a bit, before you appreciate it.

    Today I'm grateful for being able to get a great hair cut and for getting a lot of little errands done that were needing to be done. Glad I had a good conversation with my son this morning, even if he was a little late to school because of it.

    Today is my cheat day. I allow myself 1 day every two weeks where I can eat what I deem "totally inappropriate, marginally nutritional" food. I allow myself to go over my allotted calories by 200 calories. So for lunch today, I had a Whataburger hamburger, fries, and a Dr. Pepper. After 2 sips of the soda, I decided it was too sweet and switched to water (saving me a ton of calories). As a lifetime member of the "clean plate club", I am trying to reprogram myself to stop eating when I'm full and not when the food is gone. So, as I am eating, I notice that I am getting full. I stopped eating before I ate all of my fries (I ate about 1/2 the box). This is HUGE for me. I never leave fries. So not only did my body not like the soda, but I listened when it said that's enough food and I am satisfied. This is a cheat day first and I am so proud of myself! Hope everyone else can remember to celebrate the small steps that lead to a new life.

    Today I'm grateful that my mother was able to celebrate her 90th birthday and liked the gifts I gave her. Also, wonderful to have dinner with my son and play uno like we used to when he was a little boy. Also had an art student today and that went well. Pleasant spring weather here in Colorado, I'm grateful!
