Another one of these posts..sorry just need to vent

I ate a lot tonight. Not a lot by old standards but a lot for me now. All on plan but it was the fact that I felt hungry even after I had eaten the standard 1/4 -1/2 cup. I was trying to figure out what exactly made me so anxious about this. I think it's the fear of slipping back into old habits. I walk 2 miles m-f and go to the gym 4 days a week and do Zumba the walk 4-6 miles Sunday. Still eat 1/2 a cup protein first 3 times a day and 2 60g of protein shakes a day. I notice the hunger seems to be around ovulation for about two days. Just don't want to slip. Tonight I ate about 2 oz steak with 2 slices of cheese and 2oz of roasted veggies then after that I ate several bites of a chipotle bowl I got to portion and freeze. I get a bowl with beans chicken salsa cheese and gauc (no rice) then freeze in 1/2 cup portions and use as grab n go meals for work. Any advice or comments or whatever welcome. I think I'm having some hormone surges!

I try to make a plan the night before and stick to it the next day.., and try to not think about the food after that....it's all done, I got my nutrition planned in, .....and try to just keep my head in the present moment....easier said than done some times, I know.   I find that as time passes, my healthier side will let me know when I overeat, and I have the opportunity to make the dietary adjustments or behavior changes the next time I have planned out to "deal with" my food.

 It can be challenging at times, yet reaching out to help others, do something like meditate or distract myself with a movie or something like that helps. It can be a challenge for me to master the head game of food thinking."acting"  (eating) (planning or measuring or counting or whatever is working  at the moment for portion control) , which leads to food ingestion.... .and, if I stick to my plan, I don't have to worry about it...my head can trick me into thinking that an extra bite or sip or serving is ok...and then I am back on the roller coaster of thinking I ate too much. Good on you for sharing what you ate....it's so much safer to share it, for me, than to hide it, and then feel like I am hiding something.   One day, one meal at a time, it is possible to stick with this. Keep up the awareness and the action of  sharing your experiences and you are well on your way to being successful.  I really appreciate your post. Reminds me to be aware myself.

What shakes are you doing that have 60g of protein each?

The kind that make you lie lol I meant 60 total 30 each
