I am not a fan of thunder and especially lightning. I have always been a weather wuss! I mean, if there is a lot of thunder we'll be in the basement. Right now we're having some loud, long thunder...Uggg! I am debating unplugging everything. Ever since our house was hit by lightning 9 months ago, I am even more afraid of storms. It was such a pain to replace all that was damaged!

Anyway, yesterday was day 1 without sugar. I did pretty well. I forgot for a split second and had a few pieces of my son's dry Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal, mindlessly popped it into my mouth and then thought "what the heck am I doing?" I didn't even realize I was doing it either. Today is my first full day of low carbs (50 or less per day). I am so desperate to get this weight off, so exercise and fewer carbs for me now.

Mother's Day is coming up this weekend and I didn't even realize it. My husband asked what I wanted to do and I have no answer. I really can't think of anything that doesn't involve food. But a good buffet should have enough low carb options to make it worth it.

Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms out there and especially to all you other "Moyamoya Mommies"!
