Raw Food Is Heavy Sometimes.

[L.]

It's going to make me feel light and healthy, and does....but unfortunately thanks to two huge textbooks and a big ol' binder, my big old smoothie in a jar and my big bottle of water were all the rest I could carry today.... I was so sore that I just couldn't pack more because I wouldn't be able to carry it.  Literally have been struggling to carry this stuff all day and I already finished the smoothie and most of the water.  I think I might have to invest in some sort of wheely luggage case or backpack...I can't handle all this weight and it has to be terrible for my spine.  I just hope we can find a way to afford it.

 

Right now I feel sick and headachey, and I know it's because I haven't eaten enough.  I wish that there were an easier way around this--it can definitely be difficult trying to maintain this diet while going to school, but I'm doing it and I haven't fallen through once.  I'm not even tempted.  That's how determined I am to beat this stupid arthritis.  I just wish I didn't have to have days like this.  Truly do feel ill because I haven't eaten enough, and don't know how I'm going to focus in class.  Luckily Spring break is coming up--thank goodness!!!  Truly timely that it's coming up--it's ten days from now, and it couldn't come a day sooner.  So thankful that I'm only at school till night on Mondays and Wednesdays...Tuesdays and Thursdays I leave a few hours earlier... so by the time my last class ends, I don't feel nearly as bad if I didn't manage to carry as much.

 

Ouch. :(  How I'll make it through statistics and actually learn something today, I don't know.  This truly bites.  I have to find a way to not let this happen again.

Thanks :)  I'll have to check out Target, thanks for the suggestion!

I had found one through target while I was in college.  It was a backpack that had the pop-up handle and the wheels so you could carry it over the shoulder without it looking bulky or tacky yet you could quickly drop and pop the handle to just keep going.  It was pretty cheap.  Don't know that they still carry it as that's been years ago but they are out there!

Good luck to you, Lady!
