Day 53: The Day I Decided I Hate Paint

Day 52: The Day I Ate My Weight in Cereal

Honestly, I was starving when breakfast finally rolled around at 11am. By then it had been over 16 hours since I had last eaten, which is why I ate more bowls of cereal in one sitting than I think I have since I was 12.

• 1 bread stick, 1 slice of bread w/ SB, water
• 2 pretzel rods, water
  
• 2 black bean and butternut squash burritos (with all the fixins), water (dinner)
  
• DOTW: warm chocolate pudding w/ 2 mini scoops of ice cream (1 vanilla, 1 chocolate peanut butter)
  

Day 51: The Day the YM & YW Leaders Argued About Styrofoam and Apple Juice

• PB&J on toasted molasses bread, water (lunch)
• dried mango
  
• kettle corn, water
• spaghetti in homemade red sauce w/ sausage, 2 bread sticks, corn, water (dinner)

Day 50: The Day My Sweet Tooth Got the Best of Me.

Too much sugar and too many carbs. No wonder I feel crummy today.

• 1 homemade pita - half w/ hummus, half w/ peach jam, water (lunch)
  
• Teddy Grahams -- a handful each of honey and chocolate (snacking with Grace)
• 1 tiny slice dark sour bread (nothing on it)
  
• 3 nasty albeit satisfying mini Entenmann's glazed donuts (from mom) that left a gross film in my mouth, small glass of milk
