Day 4:  well, it seems to be getting easier.  The worst part is food preparation.   This Sunday, I need to do a lot of prep work so that I can make salads easily and ideally, the night before.  This afternoon (and even now) I still have a bit of a headache.  The caffeine withdraw was worst on Tuesday but I think today was also bad.   Mike made dinner.  It was great.  A huge salad with roasted butternut squash and sauteed black bean and peppers.  I actually could not eat it all.   He ate the final probably half cup of my salad.  

I'm still tempted.   Mike made the kids a Totino's pizza tonight.  I easily could have eaten the half they did not  eat.   And I really wanted a Diet Coke earlier.  That part is hard.

One thing nice that happened was that a friend said that I looked a lot better.  She said I had been looking "gray" which I agree with, my color was off.  She said my color looks a lot better.  That made me feel good. I really hope that these changes will make a big difference in my health.   It just isn't fun feeling sick all the time.

One thing I am struggling with is what to feed the kids.  Obviously, they are not eating the same diet as we are.  I wish they would.  Since I am eating completely vegetarian right now, the kids are not interested in most of what I am eating.   I need to figure out something to do for them.  I cannot feed them pizza and macaroni and cheese for the next six weeks.  But I also don't think that they will agree to eat what I am eating.  They are good eaters but they don't like all veggies.
