Dieting experiences of the inexperienced.

Today I have consumed:

8am: a bowl of whole grain cereal with organic omega-3 infused soy milk
an 8oz organic local agave sweetened Kefir milk
11:30am: affogato (scoop of vanilla gelato w/ espresso poured over it omg yum)
2:30pm: a can of Amy's organic chunky vegetable soup
a slice of sour dough toast (no butter)
an organic pink lady apple

6:15pm: omg I has such a hungry!

I'm sure this is partly because I missed dinner last night while sleeping off the migraine.

I keep telling myself I can hold off, I had ice cream!

But wow am I hungry!

I want to run to Backspace and have a toasted bagel with cream cheese and a big ol' pint of Firestone's new pale that is freakin' delicious mmmmm. But I shall not!

I will eat my reserve Pink Lady apple on the way home to make burritos. Yummm, black beans and rice and veggies and cheese yes plz.

Whee!

I have a LOT of experience dieting (grumble) but yesterday my acupuncturist told me that if you don't feel full for very long, that's GOOD and your digestion is getting back on track properly.

I always tended towards stuff that made me feel fuller longer. Maybe that was the missing bit of data I needed...

This is good to know! Telling myself my digestion is happy if I feel hungry/not full is helpful. Thank you. I have to be careful because I can slip into too-low bloodsugar really easily if I let myself go hungry for very long, but a little hunger is goodgood.
