A new day

Today is Tim's 43 birthday. And its a beautiful day! I'm a bit suprised that i posted my weight on my last blog but I suppose it doesn't matter since the blog is not seen by anyone. something inside me still says to take edit it off. I like having a record though. i find it interesting that nearly 2 years later I'm the exact same weight. Will this be the weight my body will always try to get to? I'm also surprised that I wrote the wrong year in the last post.
Well, its a new day. I'm almost euphoric about it. Starting a 10 day or potentially 40 day detox today from grain, dairy, added sugar. Sugar is a drug and I'm clearly addicted. I'd like to learn more about "sugar sensitivity". I think GMO stuff contributes to MUCH of our health decline but it isn't all. The lazy way of living, the ease of food, blah blah blah. I really just need a place to record/journal food and exercise and this is the avenue that's gonna do it.
But while I'm here I'll do a quick catch up on life. Rachel is 7, is missing both her front two teeth, is very active though could easily be swept into a lazy lifestyle. She did wonderful in her 5 week long cross country for her school. She is a good runner with good stamina. Luke is 10, enjoyed parks and rec football. I'm certain foods slow him down. of the three I think he's most sensitive to food colors and sugars. Kathryn is 13.5 She wants to eat well but it's difficult. She's home sick today. There has just been too much halloween candy around. Camp desserts. ugh. I'd love for us all to eat really well but frankly, it feels impossible. school lunches seem the most scary. One day at a time. I'm feeling madly in love with my 43 year old. however I recognize the feeling changes, especially with hormone fluctuations. I'm thrilled about a new chapter in living well. Off to begin my journal
