Whatcha Eating Today VSGers? 4/9/17

Yesterday was a rough day. My first real confrontation with head hunger, in the form of 15+ people in my house eating cake/ice cream that I had baked, frosted and procured. On top of that, Jon's grandmother brought fresh homemade donuts because she knows they are my favorite (she also doesn't know I had surgery). As soon as everyone left, I forced my whole family out of the house and we went to camp where there was no food.

I had not a bite or a lick or anything though. It was a great reward to see myself in the 170's this morning! This was also a really sobering realization that if you had this surgery, regardless of mental diagnosis, you have issues with food.

Today is supposed to be 60+ degrees, so we're off to camp again!

B: Dannon L&F and Babybel

My plan for the day is to wallow in grief - my dad died a year ago today. I also need to study for tomorrow's anatomy exam, put away laundry, and, hopefully, run.

No idea what I'll be eating. I'm hoping I can resist binging.

I'm with you today. I just found out that my 90 yr old Aunt passed away last night. She's the last one of that generation. She would have been 91 in a month. I was making her a floral beach hat to put on her door at the assisted living facility. Wallow is a good word...unfortunately, I'm at work.

Hang in there. We're both going to battle today.

Ugh I came down with a horrible sore throat yesterday. My husband and son both had it about a week ago. I thought I managed to avoid it (even gloated about my fabulous imunse system)... I've had some ibprofen and it is subsiding a bit. I scheduled / organized a crossfit run for this morning. I was going to cancel but since I'm feeling a bit better I'm going to tough it out. It's sunny -- the weather, friends and exercise should hopefully be good for me.

Food for today (rough plan as I'm listening to my body and things flex throughout the day):

b1: fit frappe

b2: protein pankcake, 1/2 orange, strawberries, bacon

post workout: protein shake

l: homemade chicken parm, pasta, asparagus

d: leftover chinese (beef, green beans, pot sticker, scallion pancake)

s: rice cakes & piece of chocolate

e: 400 m run, 20 burpee, 400m run, 18 burpee, 400m run 16 burpee -- down to 2 burpee.
