still hungry today

I really don't like the hungry feeling I am getting - it's been three days now. I wonder if I am eating less calories than I was when I was eating like Weight Watchers. I will give it a little while longer since my body will take some time to get used to this amount of food. I do like eating healthy - I think it's good for the body and the mind. :-) I haven't been eating as much fruit as I would like - for instance, today I only had strawberries for breakfast and in my yogurt and an apple for one of my snacks. I would like to fit in more fruit in the day. I really like fruit and I am sure that I can fit it in somewhere. I didn't get my ten minutes of cardio in today (one of my goals is to do at least ten minutes of cardio a day), but I won't beat myself up about it. It's hard to fit in on Thursdays as I have homework club and then go straight up to Terri-Ann's for my date night with Colin. Perhaps I could walk at lunch time since it's only for ten minutes - hey, that's a good idea. :-) Today's menu: breakfast - 2 pancakes, strawberries, maple syrup, milk, lunch - turkey on a bagel with tomatoes, snacks - strawberry yogurt, jam on crackers, supper - ham, rice with tomatoes and kidney beans, corn, milk.

  1. Is there a "free food" you can fill up on, like carrot sticks? I always wondered if one could eat as much vegetables as one wanted (ie: quantity doesn't really matter as long as it's healthy)

  2. Actually, there are no free foods (unless you count vinegar :-) Every part of what I eat is counted - and many fruits and vegs have carbs which is one of the things that my menu plan counts towards the amount I can eat in a day.
