A Monday...

Dear Nicky,

Today I made an effort to eat a little healthier than I have been for a while. I had a bowl of cereal for breakfast, followed by an apple and a banana. For lunch I had a pan-fried steak with some carrots and tomato, and a chocolate bar with some peanut butter (this last combo is one of my greatest weaknesses). Then for dinner I made us some guacamole to start, and then we had some chicken nuggets. I freely admit that I had some more chocolate and peanut butter. But I also had a couple more apples afterward. I also drank a lot of water today, had no sodas, took a multivitamin, a baby aspirin, and my Lipitor. Not bad, right? Lately, I've been eating pretty badly--if at all. Now I'm going to try slowly work my way back into being healthy again. That'd be nice. You napped somewhat decently this afternoon, but you still had a meltdown. You're not eating as voraciously as in the past, but then again you are eating nice quantities of rice cereal, so more power to you!

Love,
Dad
