Sunday's food log:
- 9am ish: 2 pieces of 12-grain bread toasted with margarine and blueberry jam
1:30ish: 3 cups of tea (chocolate mixed with monk's blend) with whole milk
2 pieces of 12-grain bread toasted with margarine and blueberry jam
I feel like I need to talk about milk a little bit - one of my housemates only likes whole milk. I grew up drinking 2% but when I moved out on my own I became all about skim milk. Any milk with any fat was bad, bad, bad. Then one day while working at Starbucks I accidentally poured half and half into my coffee instead of skim. It tasted SO GOOD. Since then I've grown far more lax about the fat content of my milk. Not that skim doesn't hold some sway...but I find myself mainly buying whole milk for the house.
4pmish: I was going to a meeting and I got hungry on the way there, so I parked my bike and walked around for a bit, trying to find something to eat. Nothing seemed right. Nothing would satisfy me. I was so hungry and felt like I didn't want to eat and everything seemed so hopeless and horrible...
And then I remembered that I have my period and that sometimes makes everything harder (I had a hell of a time putting on clothes to leave the house) and so I ducked into a corner store and bought cookies and sweet rolls to take to the meeting.
I ate:
2 sweet rolls
1 vanilla sandwich cookie
4 cups of jumbleberry tea.
7:30pm ish: bowl of soup - some kind of lentil, potato, squash and cayenne pepper mix that The Redhead made. Lots of cayenne pepper. Yogurt was added to try and rid it of super-cayenne-ness. It was tasty.
1 piece of brownie with 1 small scoop of chocolate ice cream.
1 cup of Earl Grey rooibos tea.
I think I will have some more soup when I go back downstairs to watch a movie. I think I am still hungry.
9:30ish : another bowl of soup and three slices of 12-grain bread. A lot of wandering into the kitchen, feeling like I want to eat, and then not eating.
