Well, I think I can explain some of the heavy snackage last week: our old friend, PMS! And lookie what I found in the archives on Opposite Life: a post on PMS, Type 2 Diabetes, and healthier things I eat when the girl hormones are a-raging! (Mostly, anyway.)
Breakfast: The School Year Special: 2 eggs, 1 slice flax toast with butter/canola and sugar-free strawberry jam, and decaf with almond milk and half-and-half.
Not pictured: Regular coffee with almond milk and half-and-half at work.
Lunch: Kicked off with this combo from the Thursday Goody tray at work - 2 squares of dark Chocolove and a piece of some fancy graham cracker cookie. (No Petite Ecoliers today, but this substituted very nicely!) The cookie was very buttery and no overly sweet.
2 oz. steak, some thawed frozen Brussels sprouts (petite), and an apple. Followed all that up with a nice walk-and-talk on the phone with my mom! :-)
Late afternoon snack: One of these was good. My stomach was grumbling at me all afternoon! And for no reason. Post-lunch number was 118 (after the walk), so I knew I didn't need any food. I think I may have stretched out my stomach during the past week. So I ignored it for awhile, then had one of these a couple of hours after my lunch walk.
Dinner: Mr. Handsome-and-Handy made a thick spaghetti sauce. I steamed some broccoli to have with it and had some milk. (I'll need to get some shiritake to go with the leftovers!) Thing 2 helped me eat the strawberries.
Dessert: Later on, I had the last of my Clemmy's when the kids had some ice cream. We all had some sugar-free gummy bears on top. (I also had a spoonful of their mint chip.)
And I had a couple of these.
P.S. Anyone notice what I didn't have today?
Are the nuts gone? LOL!
ReplyDeleteAre you not feeling well? Funny thing was, i didn't notice until you pointed it out. That spaghetti sauce on broccoli caught my attention. Yumm. And so simple.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if I would like the frozen brussel sprouts just as well as fresh?
