Thinking done today

Today, on my way up to Colin's for our date night, I was a bit hungry (I had been that way all day) and so I had to make a decision about what to do. I had two choices: don't do anything and hope that Terri-Ann had dinner ready when I got up there, or two: stop at Tim Horton's and get a hot chocolate. I really thought about this one and was pleased that I did. I weighed the pros and cons and decided that I would stop and get one. As it turned out, Terri-Ann did have dinner ready (and a yummy one it was, too) and so I could have foregone the hot chocolate, but I didn't know that it was going to be ready and so I didn't feel bad when I got there. The dinner (black bean casserole) was so yummy that I had a small second helping. I was a bit hungry and so I decided to have a little more. What I should have done was had about half of the little more (I am still a bit full three hours later). So, a pretty good day in that I did think this time about one thing - and in the future, if I feel hungry after I have eaten, I think I will wait a half hour and see if I am still hungry. I am sure that if I had done that tonight, I wouldn't have eaten any more (although it was so yummy, I am sure I would have wanted to. :-) Breakfast today was mini wheats, lunch - tuna sandwich and cucumbers with dressing, snacks - orange, crackers with jam. I am not sure why I was so hungry - I think that the meals were enough food - maybe my body just requires more food on some days. I will have to see if I can see a pattern if I have another 'hungry' day.
