Intermittent Fasting

So I've started intermittent fasting this week. I've been listening to a podcast by Dr Mindy Pelz, she has a book called "Fast Like a Girl". I started fasting during what they're doing as a three day fast. I am fasting starting at 7 pm. I break my fast at 12 pm with a smoothie. I drink water, coffee and bone broth at 9am. 
It's been helpful for me to sort through hunger cues and what they really mean. I am hoping it will help me lose some of this extra weight, as well…

Never enough

I honestly wish people knew how hard it is for single parents to do basically anything. Getting out of the house, getting everyone to bed, getting free time to my own... all require a lot of coordination and there is NO backup. There is no one to fill in when I'm sick or to step up when I just need 5 minutes or to tell me I'm doing a good job when everyone's asleep and the house is so quiet.  I feel like a failure in so many parts of my life; that I'm just not following up enough, I'm not doing enough, I'm not appreciative enough. It's just never enough. 🤷🏼‍♀️
