Same thing happened this week as last - that is that I found myself unable to eat as much as I used to. Again I had plans to pig out, and again I got full faster. The sweet stuff seems sweeter, and a few bites seem to satisfy my cravings.
For example, we had my youngest's birthday lunch, and he wanted hamburgers. Yay - high five on that choice! We made homemade burgers...the kind that automatically trigger memories of my youth, complete with chips on the side. I thoroughly enjoyed my 2 burgers, and still can't believe I only ate 2 chips. Aha. That's right....only 2 chips when I could have had so much more! Sing with me now, "What's up with that? What's up with that?" (SNL skit!)
Lovely lovely unforeseen side effect! Less appetite for crap, means I will eat less crap. Or at least smaller amounts of it anyway.
For tracking purposes (why else?) here's what I did eat: bowl of brown sugar Mini-Wheats with milk for breakfast, 2 hamburgers for lunch - toppings included Cheez Whiz (still love the stuff!), BLT on one, only LT on the other, and ketchup; 1 piece of white birthday cake with white icing (I know....who knew they made white cake?!), 4 homemade chocolate chip cookies, 2 glasses of Coke Zero, 2 small pieces of garlic bread with cheese on it, and a plate of bowtie pasta with meat sauce and a sprinkling of grated cheddar on top, and last but not least, 3 glasses of lipsmackingly delicious Italian Pinot Noir, AMEN!!
An awesome day - can't wait 'till next Saturday!
