Today I've been reading labels, researching the net, adding and subtracting, dividing and multiplying calories, fat grams, and nutritional information to come up with my calories for the day. It's been an almost all day ordeal. Everytime I eat something, I'm scouring the net for the calorie and fat count if I can't find it on the package or in a nutritional glossary that I have on hand.
I must admit, that after lunch, I've been ravenous! I don't feel real physical hunger, but cannot seem to feel full. So, I scrounge around for something else to eat, be it an apple or some rice cakes. I guess I need more protein, which according to Dr. OZ, equals satiety. I got some Laughing Cow cheese wedges (they're so good), per the "Hungry Girl's" advice and I guess should try eating that as a low- cal protein tomorrow.
I'm glad it's almost dinner time. I'm still not quite satisfied. My hubby won't be home until about 6ish, and I don't know if I can wait on him. I plan on exercising around 8pm, so maybe I should try to eat around 5:30, and not eat after I workout. That sounds like a plan.
