1 week.

We made it thru a whole week of organic eating. Everyone is so excited. Well at least Shawn and I are.
We weighd in this morning.

Shawn was down 5 lbs
Andrea down just under 5 lbs
Thomas down 2.8 lbs
Mikayla 1.4 lbs
Patricia 5 lbs (part of hers was being sick for 3 days and not eating)

I am excited. Losing almost 5 lbs just by getting rid of junk in our food. And I didn't have to do anything. LOL

This week we are going to put in an exercise routine to see what that will do.

Day 5

Made it this far without any big problems. We drool at the store at the candy bars, donuts and pop. lol, but we are making it thru.
Shawn weighed when he got home this morning and he has lost 3 lbs. We will do a full weigh in on Monday morning.
Patricia has been sick since yesterday morning. All day yesterday and this morning we was throwing up and wont eat or drink. She has stopped throwing up, but not drinking much and not eating at all.  Getting worried about her. Probably wait till morning and if she isn't getting better I will take her to ER.

Day 3

A bit rough for us all today. Wanting some stuff we can't have, but its worse whenyou really can't have it. Cranky kids and tired mommy. Not sure if its worse today cause we are going thru a withdrawl of sorts, or just our normal everyday crankieness. LOL.

But we made it thru, that is what counts. One more day by ourselves and then Shawn will be home to help.

Very excited.

Went to town today and was happily surprised to find the organic cereal that the kids like at Walmart and Kroger. And Krogers organic section had alot of the every day stuff that we will need. Also was able to find popcorn for a good price at Health and Nutrition plus. :)

The day went good. Packed snacks and water for why we were gone and made it thru the Walmart check out line without buying a candy bar or pop. Major thing for me!!!!!

Day 2 was a success!!!!!!!!

Organics Day 2.

Kids loved the cereal they had today, so for them its good.  I wanted Chirizo, but they didn't have a good one, lady talked me into this other stuff that when I opened it, the smell was ookie.   So I ended up having cereal and it was ok, but not what I was hungry for. O well.

Heading to town today after lunch. That will be the hardest. We always pick up lunch when we head to town and most of the time a snack. So I will pack  a few things for snacks just in case and see how that goes.

Supper was much better. Ham and green beans. Ham is from a local farm, not organic, but better than the store. They had to use organic ketchup instead of bbq sauce that they usually use and it went over good. Green Beans from our Garden that Shawn canned a few weeks ago.

So day one was all organic except for ham and watermelon.

I would say Day 1 was a success.

Lunch went ok. Mikayla said she didn't like the peanut butter, but I think it was just because she took so long to eat and the other 2 were done. Thomas loved the pb and bread. I thought they were pretty good also. Patricia loved her Joe Os.

So so far, pretty good.

Organic lifestyle, Day 1.

Just going to keep track here to see how our new lifestyle goes.

Went yesterday to Trader Joes to pick up some organic foods. Fell in love with the store and would love if it was closer.

So today is day 1. We weighed in and  wrote it down for all 5 of us and will do that weekly.

Kids and Shawn had organic cereal for breakfast. 3 out of 4 liked it. Mikayla had corn flakes and didn't care for it.  I tried an organic, greek, honey yogurt. It wasn't yucky, but I didn't like it. Shawn finished that for me. Then I tried a Trader Joes, organic strawberry yogurt. That was pretty good. So that will be a product to pick up next time we go.
So first meal was a plus. Will see how lunch goes

This is my first try at blogging, so we will see how it goes. :)
