Fat

So first time moms don't normally show until 5-6 ish months. I am a couple days away from starting my 4th month and I am feeling.... well, f-a-t. I'm not talking baby in the tummy fat.

I'm not too worried about it b/c I'm sure it will even out sometime, but what do I do when I wake up TWICE in the middle of the night b/c I am absolutely starving?! It is such a strange feeling b/c there is no way you can go back to sleep (I have tried). Although, I think I may have solved the problem. Last night I drank some milk right before I went to bed in preparation for the hunger pains and guess what? I didn't wake up even once. I'm going to try it again tonight - I'll let you know how it goes, I am very optimistic.

The title has nothing to do with this post, I just thought of Arrested Development and the Bob Law's Law Blog thing. If that's not right I hope someone can correct me. =)

Not sure what is with me lately.

My life feels a little bit messy. Hopefully it will get organized soon, and it will. Unless Vanessa sparks my thoughts again.

Good Job Jaime Oliver, but...

My friends I graduated with have gone on to pursue their dreams of becoming Registered Dietitians through extensive hours of internship. Jill found an article that hit the spot on how I was feeling about this "Revolution" Jaime Oliver has started. It is great what he is doing but there are many aspects I think he doesn't take into consideration. Not all schools have crappy lunches, and they are regulated. Changes have started a long time ago, but, change takes time.

We have talked about school lunches many times in class and it is such a touchy subject. Here is a big issue (among many others):

Parents come in and complain that the kids don't have any nutritious foods to choose from. But, if you follow the kids home, they are served the same if not worse than what the school is serving. The change needs to start at home, first. Otherwise, kids end up not eating and throwing the healthy foods that they get from school out. Wow, did that make sense? I'm not saying schools can't change first, just don't complain that your kid isn't getting proper nutrition because of the school lunch program-- look at what you give them at home, then you can raise your standards for school lunch. Hopefully school lunches have improved by the time you fix your own problems.

Sorry, long rant. Feel free to read this article.
