so i woke up this morning

September 6th, 2007

I woke up this morning and felt light.  I did not have a heavy dinner the night before nor did I have a buttload of snacks.  I ate dinner early - at 3:30 to be exact and did not eat big after that.  I had a few snacks but for the most part - that was it.  I liked the way I felt so much that again I ate an early dinner 4:00 and that was that.  I had a medium McD french fries, a home grilled cheese and turkey sandwhich on whole wheat bread and sliced tomatoes and cucumber.  Why the fries, because I WANTED them.   I am getting better.   Yesterday, I ate a large fry.  My goal is to NOT snack for the rest of the evening.  I think I will make a cup of hot tea later.  But if I can’t handle it, I have given myself permission to each tomato soup.  I love tomatoes.  I love Bloody Marys too but that is a different subject.  It is 6:33 and I only have to stay up 4.5 more hours to make it. 

 Hugs to you all. 

Update

It’s 8:43 and not a bite has hit my mouth.  Unless you want to count the taste of the very first, just picked, home grown tomato I had to try.  Yummy. Now I will take a shower and wash my hair. That should take up some time too!

    Hiya, I read your comment on another blog about putting stickers on your exercise calender. I do the same thing in my food log! I have all sorts of stickers that I just love. LOL They seem to motivate me so I’ll keep on doing it. :)

    Home grown tomatoes? YUM.

    Oh gawd, home grown tomatoes, my very favorite. Nothing you can buy will ever taste like that.
    I like you idea, eat early and then nothing. Let me know how it works for you

    Hi Bobbie,
    Just a comment on the not eating. Be sure you consume a little something every few hours. Tomatoes are fine and pickles have 0-5 calories depending on what kind you choose.
    If you do without food too long your body goes into protection mode and will store what you do eat as fat so eat a little every little while just to keep your body in metabolism mode.
    Keep up the good work and do not worry about the scale…watch how your clothes fit as opposed to what the scale says!
    Best Wishes,
    Judy
