FOOD:

• HTeaO Unsweetened Peach Cobbler Iced Tea
• GV SF Lemonade
• Diet Coke
• Roasted Seaweed
• great northern beans, steamed cauliflower, collard greens, mustard, cayenne pepper

NOTES: I haven’t been feeling well for a few days with sinus issues, so my cravings have been unusual.  While I’m generally off of Diet Coke, I got a couple and they were fine.  I prefer my lemonade normally, but it tasted off to me.  Today I wasn’t very hungry at all, but when I finally did eat I felt sick to my stomach.  I need to remember that I don’t have to eat when I don’t feel hungry.  Today it felt like an obligation, and that isn’t a good reason to eat.

NOTES: I’ve been working on reducing food costs as much as possible, so I looked at how we could do that within the patterns of eating both Justin and I are currently using.  I have gotten into a similar habit to my parents where I buy far too much food, but there aren’t a ton of people eating that food.  I like the variety, but that has some disadvantages.  I’m going to work on some sort of meal guide that should help.  Neither of us is good at following a meal plan, but maybe having a variety of dishes with overlapping ingredients will allow us to get some control over that.  Even if we didn’t make the thing we absolutely wanted on a given day, we would at least have the items on hand for something we tend to enjoy.

NOTES: I’ve already started worrying about my Monday weigh-in.  I don’t like dreading it, especially when I’ve been losing weight.  I guess I just don’t trust it to last still.  I’m so worried about whether or not I will be able to get down to a healthy weight that I just assume I won’t.  I hope that changes in my brain at some point.
