Days 2-5 and the storm.

        I should have kept up everyday, but that can get overwhelming when I have a bunch of other stuff to do. Its hard to do all my school stuff and my work and have time to plan out all my meals and make everything that I can't get in the cafeteria. I've done really well. I've stuck to the diet all except for one thing. I had a chicken Caesar salad and it didn't have light dressing. So that was a fail. Otherwise I've been eating lots of fish. I feel like a fish now myself. Unfortunately my roommates don't like the smell of fish, so I feel a little bad making it so often. I also didn't do green tea for some of my drinks this weekend because I was in Chicago and I forgot to bring some. But thats okay, its just the 17day diet suggestion for drinks, but i just did water and I was fine. I'll get back to my tea now that I'm home and have an ample amount of it. 
   So on my way back from Chicago today, I was driving on some really icy and slushy roads. A big truck went flying past me and started spinning and then hit the car in front of me. They both spun and I hit my breaks. I knew that if I hit them too hard I would probably start twisting around too, so I just slowed myself down and hoped that they were out of the way. Thankfully they both went into the ditch before I could become part of the wreck. I pulled off the road and turned my hazard lights on and got out to check if everyone was okay. I started walking towards the truck and a guy got out and said he someone was hurt. I immediately pulled out my phone and called 911. Within minutes police cars started showing up. I talked to a police officer and told him my story and then he let me leave. Needless to say I drove about 25mph for the next 30 miles...it took a long time to finally get home. I thank God for keeping me safe.
