All righty. I keep disappearing when I'm naughty. Must stop. After another naughty, overeating day yesterday...GRRR.
Lack of sleep is a huge trigger for me to do this. Don't feel grounded in my body, not aware of what I'm doing. Never really made that connection before.
Today, Saturday, is a new day.
I'm filled w/ hope for better behavior.

BAD MORNING!!! Trapped gas bubble that made me reflux most of the friggin' day!!! The evening was better till I took my fiber at 9:00pm. Then I blew up like a giant blimp. After I listened to hypno, I fell asleep for an hour. But, of course this stupid GERD keeps waking me up between 2-4am with A HORRIBLE STOMACH ACHE!!! I just wanna sleep!!!
2 Mini Bagels w/PB Chamomile Tea
Baked Fries Almonds
Mashed Potato/Green Bean Burrito Walnuts Anise Tea
1/2 Luna Bar (reflux city!)
Mashed potato/Green Bean Burrito Almonds Nilla Wafers Teddy Grahams (I gotta stop torturing myself with these things~made my tummy hurt again!!)
Mashed potatoes and potato broth
Bed!
The good news is I have been eating soo many potatoes that I think (according to MY scale) I have gained 3 lbs!! Only 17 more to go!! I am trying to eat at least 6 potatoes a day so I can put some meat on my bones and I think it's finally working!! WhoooHoooo!!!!
Now, if I could control my nighttime wakings, I will be sitting golden!!!

First, that's great that you are doing everything you can to get to a healthy weight. You should be very proud of yourself!!! It's hard to gain weight when you don't feel good. But it's so much better for your entire body to be at a healthy weight. I admire that in you!
Also, someone on the Recipe Exchange (franny) is asking for the recipe for your potato/green bean burrito! Thought you might like to know someone wants your recipe!
Keep up the great work!!!

one of those days where my eating schedule got thrown off - went to a reading at 2:30, so i had to eat earlier than i'd wanted, and then went longer without eating than i'd planned. but i guess it's a good sign for my mental health wrt food that it bothered me to eat when i wasn't hungry.
honey nut cheerios w/ lite soy milk
water crackers
wheat crackers apple sauce
vegan stuffed shells (tofu, spinach, broccoli) in tomato sauce
a little pasta w/ pesto cream sauce (didn't realize it was a cream sauce when i ordered it, so i only ate a little, and then had...) 3 dinner rolls
blackberry iced honest tea (herbal) 3/4 vegan chocolate chip cookie
some breadsticks (the crackery kind)
a loooong day - went to a movie at 11:15, didn't go to bed till 3. wow. but still a decent eating day. about 1600 calories. and it would have been less but i knew it was low throughout the day, and i want to make sure it doesn't get *too* low - i like feeling like i have energy.

Thanks Cyndy!! And Franny!!
Unfortunately, my GERD (reflux) is pretty bad at the moment b/c of my hiatal hernia, I guess. So, my mashed potato/green bean burritos/quesadillas are just that.
They are not flavored with butter or anything! BOOOO!!!! Very boring.......I'm sorry.
I cannot have ANY spices right now, so I just boil some potatoes, mash 'em up (I boil like 8 at a time and keep them in the fridge), heat up some frozen green beans and put a layer of mashed potatoes and a layer of green beans on a burrito (microwave for 35 sec) and viola!!! hehehehehe.......it's very simple and it has the alkaline foods that I need for my reflux, the soluble fiber for my IBS-D and the calories for my weight!!. It's really the perfect combo for all of my ailments
Tell Franny that if she wants, what would sound really good is like green bean casserole burritos, chicken and mushroom quesadillas (love those!!!). I will put anything in a burrito, honestly! I LOVE burritos AND quesadillas!!!
My husband used to make me breakfast burritos that have potatoes, cheese (could use soy cheese), egg (can use whites) and salsa. Those were sooooo yummy!!!! But, I haven't had one since I got sick this time around. I don't think the salsa would sit very well right now. Bleh!!!
My husband is a "New Mexican", so we're burrito and quesadilla eatin' ( and used to be margarita drinkin') fools!!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I really have to push myself to eat....it hurts so bad......but, you're right. If I can get back up to a healthy weight my body will start straightening itself out. I have to keep pushing and the support that I get from all of you, really really helps me in so many ways. I love all of ya!

Well, I'm still abstaining from smoking! Yay.
My acid reflux is EVIL. I've tried to incorporate wheat products unsuccessfully and the worst episodes seemed to be after wheat-based foods, i.e. mini organic white pitas, saltines, pretzels. SO, no more torture. I also note that it gives me huge stomach spasms/contractions and mucous/D follows after. I end up vomitting/coughing up the offender...and the acid just burns. I ate gf for years, upon the advice of my M.D. so I'll go back to what worked.
I hate vomitting, stomach acid, reflux, cramps/D.
--mini white organic pita (plain) ***total bile and spitting up***
--wild mushroom/asparagus soup ***totally yummy, soothing, and made my tummy feel really good***
--more wild mushroom/asparagus soup!!! ***the asparagus was pureed and swirled in with the assorted 'shrooms to give it a creamy effect. I used "Imagine Asian Style Chicken stock" which is delicioius!***(maybe I should call it a "chowder?")
--steamed rice, lots of mushrooms, spinach ***felt really good***
--mini organic pita ***acid/vomit/mucous/coughing/D***
Hey. Live in learn. You try things--sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. Tomorrow is another day. I hate hugging the toilet. Hot guys are infinitely more exciting.
However, we'll settle for a "killer" bunny, lol!

We all need our beauty sleep. Sweet dreams. Be selfish and take time and do something exclusively for you.
Like REST!!! Surrendering to sleep (a vulnerable state) is a challenge for me, too.

Today was an abnormal day. I ate two meals out of the house, which for me equals lots of sushi.
rice crispix w/soymilk
1 serv. arrowroot cookies
8 pieces shrimp roll w/ avocado & cucumber
apple/cinnamon rice crisps
1 serv. arrowroot cookies
1/2 serv. angel food cake
2 1/2 pieces sake nigiri
1 bowl edamame
3 pieces chef special (no idea what was in them, but they were really good)
2 cups green tea
1/2 serv. angel food cake w/ 2 spoonfuls of chocolate soy 'ice cream'
I eat naughty with friends, I guess. But it wasn't a terrible day.
Calorie-wise I have no idea, anybody have a calorie counter for sushi?

Yum! Sushi. Great idea.
No idea of precise calories, but they are really low.

Mmmmm...those vegan stuffed shells sound amazing! I have missed those kinds of pasta dishes since my diagnosis. Was it something you picked up at the store? If so, what was the brand name? If not, do you have a recipe? Thanks!
