B - protein shake
S - 1/4 c soy nuts

Gotta work on that belief that 3 bites = contentment cannot be a full meal
S - protein shake
D - 4 egg bites, 3 baby pickles, 1/4 cup popcorn with butter.
Calories 760, carbs 39, fat 24, prot. 101

It was a good day food wise, but I working on learning what 'full' and 'satisfied' means for me instead of stuffing myself based on what I see.
Guess I am afraid of starvation - something I've never experienced, or hunger - which has been rare - and obviously never fatal! LOL. The dreaded 'starvation mode' or whatever.

I didn't keep track of my food well yesterday. Stayed in bed with my Z most of the day. Hey it was raining out ... what were we supposed to do? LOL
We attended an M/s dinner (formal with service - hawt) and I had bites of what I was allowed. It was hard sitting through the dessert course and eating nothing but I did and left feeling satisfied (in many ways that had nothing to do with food).
I think I'm beginning to learn that food does not HAVE to be the focus.
Exercise: Does getting spanked and caned count? (sorry TMI). LOL
Wasn't paying attention but pretty sure I got in all my fluids.
Most of my vitamines.
Today is a far more disciplined day (at least bariatric-wise).
