Day 5 of 7

A couple of days ago, Barry ran into a dilemma with our 7 eating plan.  As he waited in line in Walgreens to check out, he stood in front of a display that raised temptation.  Do Cadbury Cream Eggs count as an egg in seven days of eating seven foods?

Ha!

I'm proud to say that he walked away, but it couldn't have been easy.

Day 2 was my worst day, and now I've settled into being ok with 7 food options.  That's not bragging since I  also know it's coming to an end soon.  :)  I'm actually feeling great physically, and I feel like I've cleansed my body of some of its junk food addiction.

The biggest thing that's happening is in my heart.  I feel tenderized toward people who live with limited resources.  I'm also feeling tremendously more content and thankful with what I've been given.

This morning Barry has made us spinach and onion omelets.  I'm sitting in my warm house watching a surprising NC snow fall.  Life is very, very good.  7 foods for 7 days definitely doesn't make me any kind of hero.  My stomach still has rarely growled even as millions around the world go hungry.  But limiting my abundance is making me more aware, more grateful and more determined to help others where I can.
