I’m not doing that great eating wise today. I have a big exam in psychology tomorrow and it is really difficult to not turn to eating to deal with the stress which is what I used to do. I already see little hints of that because I’m eating too much chocolate, carbs, and then not enough veggies and fruits. I also just got back from work all day and the gym is closed because it’s Sunday. I feel like sleeping the rest of the day away but the only reason I can’t do that is because I have to study! Ah! I hate studying!
I made the oatmeal cookie recipe and it was pretty good. It was very filling but it really didn’t taste that sweet or like a cookie. I think next time I will add more splenda. I need to get sugar free syrup to try the other recipe.
Okay I need to find a way to turn this day around and not resort to stress eating. I can do that..
When I was in school I always wanted to munch on things while I studied too. You could try having fresh vegetables around and maybe they would help. I also understand when I was wanting to eat while studying, I wanted something salty or sweet, so I am not sure the veggies will totally satisfy that craving. Perhaps you could mix some walnuts with a Splenda/artificial vanilla flavoring/salt mixture and bake it, then munch on that. In fact, it sounds good to me right now.
By the way, I love the cartoon!
