truckin along...
honey wheat pretzels (a few, on my way to work)
honey nut cheerios w/ ff soy milk
rice & beans w/ salsa & guacamole (leftovers - smallish serving) 3 werther's
pureed squash w/ maple syrup baked doritos
a few wheat thins mini bagel minestrone soup
a few reese's pieces (4?) chocolate soy delicious w/ reduced fat pb (<1T) (so incredibly good - without the pb soy delicious is okay, nothing great, but this totally transformed it into a decadence - not an every-day way to eat it, but when i really want something intensely rich, that isn't going to kill my ibs or be a totally unhealthy choice, i have a new favorite way to go.)
so that's probably around 1500 calories. very pleased with that. and pleased with how i'm relating to food - after the bowl of ice cream, it was so good that i decided i'd have another bowl of it a little later. but i didn't get hungry again - even with consciously wanting to eat it, i had no actual desire for it, because my body was just done eating for the day. i think i'm relearning how to eat. stopping the close, intense calorie counting has definitely made me feel better about all of this. i'll still do rough counts during the day, just to see where i am, and i've been around 1500-1800 daily, which is just where i want to be. and for my psyche/soul this is just so much better - i really feel like this is sustainable, like i'm not on a diet but just making healthier choices. still not perfect, but perfect wouldn't be able to last, and this can.
