Well it's finally here, Day 7! I can't believe it took so long to get here! I love Fridays, especially this one! And I am sooooo looking forward to sharing Thanksgiving with my family!
I have to say this journey is one of the hardest I have had to endure. It wasn't easy, in fact it was damn hard! I still can not imagine having to do this day in day out, week after week, year after year.
I could see my energy levels dropping off as the week progressed and not having my usual "zest for life" is really depressing, not only for me but for my family and friends. It was an extreme stuggle to go to that food box and try to design a meal that I could look forward too! I'm so tired of pasta, KD, weiners, fried egsg on toast and oatmeal. That is what my meals were like ALL week. And I am sick of leftovers! Honestly I want to gag just thinking of having to eat like this again for another week.
My heart goes out to those individuals who want to eat better but cannot afford to. It should not be a luxury! I encourage everyone to send out an email or a Facebook message to their friends and family asking them to participate in the survey along with an email to the government asking them to put more money in the food budget.
Congratulations everyone! See you at the luncheon today!
