Mood:

Still tired. Every time I wake up I’m nervous. Hoping to get lots done at work, and keep up with the housework as well as I did last night.

Breakfast:

  • What I ate: Dutch.
  • Hunger Before: No.
  • Satisfaction After: I didn’t finish, and I didn’t feel overfull.
  • Dining Experience: 3.5/5. I was drinking it while dealing with a sticky subject.
  • Why/Thought: Wanted to take care of myself by getting caffeine and calories in.

Lunch:

  • What I ate: Part of a KFC strip box, along with an extra biscuit
  • Hunger Before: I think, yes.
  • Satisfaction After: Yes. Did not eat all of it.
  • Dining Experience: 4/5. I pulled over and did some research on investing, ate in front of the water. I noticed I didn’t want the last two strips.
  • Why/Thought: I had not wanted to take my lunch at that time, but also, I did not want to deviate from the schedule people wanted me on. I considered not eating because I wasn’t certain I was hungry, but then when I really stopped and listened, I realized I was slightly hungry.

Dinner:

  • What I ate: deconstructed stuffed bell pepper skillet with mozzarella.
  • Hunger Before: Ever so slightly maybe.
  • Satisfaction After: I think I had an appropriate amount, I was not uncomfortable full.
  • Dining Experience: 4/5. Everyone else is in bed, I’m sitting here at my computer journalling.
  • Why/Thought: I think I was slightly hungry. Dinner was put away (thank you Oldest) and normally I wouldn’t mess with it once it’s put away. But I think that I was just beginning to feel hungry, and the fact that no one was running around to place demands on me made eating seem like it would be a relaxing experience, even if I was keeping the volume low.

Snack:

  • What I ate: N/A.
  • Hunger Before: N/A
  • Satisfaction After: N/A.
  • Dining Experience: N/A.
  • Why/Thought: I contemplated a bag of cheetos. The idea passed.

Wins:

There were a handful.

  • Really only drank half of my Dutch.
  • Stopped at enough for lunch.
  • Stopped at enough for dinner.
  • Walked up the stairs each time today.
  • I am journalling, even without the interwebs availble.
