Today was the first day to "getting back on track". My meal plan went as follows...
7:15am oatmeal and protein shake
11am rice cake
12 noon protein shake
1:30pm chicken, sweet potatoes, green beans, salad with red wine vinegar/sweet n low
3:15pm orange
4:30pm protein shake
6:30pm Talapia, oriental veges, very tiny side of pasta
I only drank water today.
I will typically get hungry again before bedtime. Not sure what I will choose to snack on if I do. Cubbards are pretty bare right now. I got a good workout in this morning. I didn't get enough sleep last night so I have had to really assess my "hunger" pains today. If you are tired, many times you interpret this as being hungry when your body really isn't. Be careful of this. Usually this presents itself to those of us who tend to be bedtime eaters. Go to bed and get some rest. This is probably the number one thing I need to do this year. Once the kids are down, I will have my unwind time in front of the TV. Before I know it I am making a mad dash to the kitchen for a quick snack (aka: cheese toast). I've got to stop this. I instead need to know the signs and work my way to bed. Guess I will see how it goes while I watch the Bachelor tonight.
Good post! I'll have to remember it the next time I'm making a mad dash for a bowl of cereal before going to bed!
