I missed eating a salad so much. The ability to eat one today did more for my mind than I could imagine. I had my best protein day yet.

Three Things:
1. Grace
2. My DH
3. Salad with TONS of bacon, cheese, and full fat salad dressing

ETA: My 3 things

 As I post I wear a paper bag over my head due to the shame of not getting in enough food or protein today...I had to fast this morning for bloodwork, and it just set the bad day in motion.

B- @ 10:30 - hubby and I went out for breakfast - I was craving a protein shake, but had sausages instead.  They were gross, but I managed to eat three.

L-nothing

S- a bite of a pizza pop, a triscuit cracker, some cheese and some popcorn.

Every time I have a day like this, it's because I don't have my shake first thing in the morning.  I felt nauseated and heartburny (not a real word) all day.  Probably would have felt better if I would have made myself eat.  Oh well, I'm learning!!  

I know what you mean.  If I do not have my breakfast shake and prilosec in the morning, my food intake will be crap and I will feel like crap. I noticed this weekend when I was unable to eat every couple of hours that food and me will not mix.

It is weird on one level having the DS has forced me to sever my emotional relationship with food. On the other hand, I am forced to have food around me at all times and to think about what and when I am going to eat.

 Good to know I'm not the only one out there.  I am realizing just how vital it is to get in the shake first thing!!  I don't have the emotional relationship anymore either, but you're right.  I am forced to think about it (except when I forget, like at lunchtime today!)  I could never forget before, and I would daydream about my next meal!  Now I have to remind myself to eat!

 You must be in fantastic shape!!  I need to work my way back up to be able to do a one-hour class.  I can barely handle my Wii fit!!
