Day 2
I got a glorious 6-hour stretch of sleep last night! It's only the second one I've had in the past 7-1/2 weeks. I really needed it, too. I was completely exhausted yesterday. I'm not sure if it was mostly sugar withdrawal or a combination of lack of sleep and maybe low iron (I'm going to get my blood tested today to see if I have anemia). Regardless, I think that I am suffering from the consequences of overconsumption of sugar for the previous several days, as I also have had a headache. Just goes to show it doesn't take long to slip back into old habits and feel really awful from this garbage food. Before I became pregnant I could handle eating like this and feeling awful, but with all the demands of my body right now from breastfeeding and sleep deprivation, my body just can't compensate anymore. Being sugar-free is no longer a desire, but a necessity.
