9:45 am
Wake up!
Awwww man! I’m so thirsty! I usually start the day off
with a really big cup of water. It’s crazy, I’ll be
thinking about that water like all day!!
11:30 am
Lunch time…
Why does it seem like everyone is eating right now.
Funny thing is I am thinking more about getting some
juice than eating an actual meal.
1:15 pm
Quit spinning!
So right now my tummy is growling and I am a lil
dizzy. Honestly the only reason I haven’t passed out
is because I know I’m getting a great meal at the end
of the day! But seriously, I feel icky. That’s when I
realize I didn’t eat much the day before and I don’t
even think I ate dinner!
3:15 pm
Wish I were in 1st grade
Right now I’m at work and it’s snack time for the
first graders I work with. They had muffins and orange
juice and the OJ looked like soooooo good. I’m
surprised I kept up with the kids on the playground
because I was so freaking tired! I didn’t think I
would get this tired from not eating. I got plenty of
sleep but my body is running on air!
6:20 pm
Hurry the sun is down!
Well it’s sunset and I am on my way to 040 in Kean
hall. I picked up something to drink on the way
because that’s what I really wanted all day! I was
happy I didn’t cheat. It made everything so much more
satisfying!
All and all I was tired the whole day. I had a
headache, my mouth was dry and all I could do was
think about drinking some water or juice or something.
The only think I was banking on was that I got to eat
at the end of the day. And honestly I could have eaten
at anytime. Many people don’t have the option of
eating anytime and I am blessed that I don’t have to
wonder around everyday wondering when my next meal
will be, how big it will be and will it be healthy for
me.
