So... as I am sure I have mentioned previously, I am starting with wiping most caffeine and white carbs and this is an explanation of how I am feeling right now.
LIKE A PSYCHOOOO!!!!!!
I am gonna freak out. I have the shakes and a headache and I am completely sluggish.
I have decided to go back on the carb choice program. I was on this program as I was pregnant with Gage and then with the babies. In a nutshell, 15 carbs = 1 carb choice. During pregnancy I was allowed 15 carb choices... so I am gonna kick it down to 7 or 8. Most of my current diet consists of white carbs as that is what I crave when I'm tired (which is ALWAYS).
This whole situation is teaching me exactly how addictive some things can be. I never realized how bad I actually was. Well, I kinda did, but I never let it bother me. My goal is that by 2012 I was to be medication free. No more Metformin and no more Spironolactone.
On another note... my foot is going to get ripped off soon. Its making me mad.
Also, sorry about the crabby tone. I am not at my best tonight. I am thinking by tomorrow it will be better. I will try to pop back on in a bit.

CPP End of first day update.
I AM EXHAUSTED! Today was my first rime in years not having a single cup of coffee! I just got everyone settled in from this insane day, but I wanted to pop an update on here.
For lunch today I had about 4 baby red potatoe quarters and for brussel sprouts (leftover from last night) and 1/2 cup cottage cheese. Drank water and my brewed tea. Then for dinner we ordered pizza cause I was dying, but I only at the toppings from two slices. I am ok with having carbs, but I pulled the white ones such as white flour and sugar. The big problem I have run into, is that with what little sleep I get, I am not sure if I can afford to go to decaf green tea. Also, I need to work on getting to eat small meals throughout the day to keep my blood sugar stabalized. This has been an inssue with me for a while. Time management is not my forte.
This afternoon, the boys and I did some of our therapy moves... and instead of just helping them perform them, I got right in there. Gage and I were going to hook up the Wii today (I got a "MyShape" and Gage got "Wii Nickelodeon Fit") but then Cote was kind of fussy. She is having some trouble with a tooth coming in. It is our project tomorrow though.
As I finish this up... I am drinking more water. Today was hard but I know that as long as I behave, She will too. Come Hell or high water, she will succeed in this goal!
