What are you eating today?

It's a type of squash.  It's big and yellow.  You cut it in half and seed it, bake it for an hour.  When it's done you shred it with a fork crosswise and it comes out looking like spaghetti.  So, it's really squash, but it looks like spaghetti.  Sorry substitute, but okay.  It's good with pasta sauce on it, too.

Well, let me clarify the snack thing.  I don't always eat the snack but in my mind I plan in advance that IF I am hungry that is what I will have.  I don't want to be unprepared and be tempted to eat something bad so I want to plan a protien snack in case I am hungry.

I have been hungry a few hours after a meal often and I think it is because I still can't eat very much at one sitting.  If I could eat a little more like 1/2 cup I think it would stay with me longer.  I get weak and empty feeling in the afternoon.  Now, the 40 cal fudgesicle, well that is purely a want.  When the family gets a snack in the evening that is what I get so that I don't feel left out.  Maybe that is wrong but it is working for me right now.
