Last night I didn’t get home and get dinner cooked until 11:00 PM. I was a little behind on timing all day. Dinner was a chicken leg w/o skin, brown rice with mushrooms & onions sauted in olive oil, and broccoli. About 600 calories, all foods I really like. I couldn’t eat it all.
I had planned to eat the same thing again today after church (easier on the menu planning) and then have a salad for supper.
But after church I opted for Barnes & Noble (my new second home) and ended up having a banana & chocolate Vivanno with an extra serving of protein powder and 2 tablespoons of walnuts (I always carry a MUFA in my purse now). Totally legal as a meal, just not on the menu.
I didn’t go home then, and if I don’t go eat again right now, won’t be back until 10:30 PM or so tonight, due to meetings from 5:30 to 10:00.
The moral of the story is I think I avoided going home to avoid having to eat all that food. So. I need to drop back to 400 calorie menus and eat more times a day, and maybe make one meal a day a protein shake. Planning menus I won’t eat doesn’t help at all!
There sure is a lot to learn!
