what did we eat over the weekend that we shouldn't have?
ok ill confess I went to see sideways at the movies and managed to eat popcorn, no idea how much but lots less than I normally would have , but much more than I probaly should have. Surprisingly the popcorn went down easily with no problems whatsoever. I probably ate a fourth of a medium size tub, whcih thinking on it right now seems like way too much. why did my stomach not rebel and say it was full? I only stopped because I really felt I should stop. I probably could have grazed the movie away on the entire tub. I managed to drink nearly 20 oz of water during the movie which was one saving grace, but after the pop corn when I got home I was not really hungry for dinner of meat and protein, so had a half cup of corn chex cereal in 1% milk, which tasted so good I had a second half cup. I think I have now become addicted to corn chex cereal. I love the crunch and with spelnda I still get all the sweetness I need.
My new thing to eat that probably is okay, is 2 chicken legs from BW3's, Teriyaki Style. I couldn't believe I ate both of them, (plus I drank 3 glasses of unsweetened Iced Tea). Boy, are they good! I didn't know we were allowed to eat popcorn ever again. I've had a hankering (that's KY for craving) for that . Maybe I will try it next time I do. I like cereal too. The Smart Start with Soy protein is really good, and you get the protein, which is so important. Not to mention the badly needed (sometimes) fiber.
I'm a closet Chex freak myself!!! I liked them before surgery, but now I love them!!
I don't eat them with milk, it still bothers me post surgery, but I love to eat them plain, with my ice tea(u/s) in the morning! My fave is corn too!
I tell ya, I have been fruit crazy and eat it during the day, along with veggies(all raw). I don't really eat but one meal around 11;30 or so ...usually a smart,w.w., or healthy choice frozen meal(some type of carb counting meal entree).
Sooo... to get my protein in... I use a soy(no milk) powder protein drink+ 1/2 scoop unflavored GNC protein powder and mix w/6oz. water.. I get 30 gm. protein! I hate the taste(the ole kids trick...plug the nose and shug!).
I get my protein 2 x a day and can eat all the veggies I want. I crave them!! My newest is brussel sprouts! Weird how everything has such great flavor now!! I think, that I ate so fast before shoveling food in... I never stopped to really taste it!!
