What are you eating today (Tuesday) or yesterday?
It's freezing this morning, and my hands are like popsicles.
When I got home from work last night, I was once again too hungry to eat carefully, quickly snarfed up my evening snack (about 4-5 Saltine crackers) and about 10 minutes later found myself in the midst of my worst dumping episode to date. I had to lie down even though l hadn't unwound enough to fall asleep and lying down so soon after eating is asking for trouble. Got up several times thinking I was going to puke, but all I had was dry heaves because the food was already assaulting my intestines. The crackers contain no sugar, so I guess it was the starchy carb aspect that did me in.
I have today off, and my #1 goal for the day is to EAT SLOWLY. My #2 goal is to make smarter choices (no Saltines) if I need to change my food plan. Which is:
B: protein latte
S: cottage cheese blueberry pancakes
S: ricotta cheesecake fluff w/ blueberry fiber crisps
L: smoked turkey & cheese roll-up
S: raw sugar snap peas
S: almond, craisin & sesame seed snack mix
D: veggy "meat"loaf, potato, broccoli & onion gratin
S: peanut butter banana bar
The veggy meatloaf is amazing: mushrooms, green veggies (bell pepper, sugar snap peas, onion) and chopped walnuts. Preparing it is quite a lot of work, but I don't mind that on my day off.
This morning's exercise class is weights/resistance training.
Have a lovely day!
