Also... You are training for a half marathon. Eat real chips, for goodness sake!
Well lookie there. I lost 7 pounds without even trying.
But, someone in my injury thread said that when they stopped running their appetite went away and they lost a bunch of weight, and that has been true too. Well, I don't know about a bunch... I'm back down to pretty much my lowest weight in 10 years. Of course, I'm now because I know it's just muscle wasting.
Maybe try breaking things down into smaller meals and just plan to eat more often? Then instead of snacking on whatever... you're eating purposefully and prepared for it, when hunger strikes. Also, I've had to just come to terms with the fact that my "dinner" time is more like 4:30/5. So, I do best to eat something dinner sized then and then maybe a snack or something around regular dinner time- if I do get hungry later. I eat lunch at 11:30, though, so I guess that makes sense.
Well, the soup was bland. But salt and pepper fixed that. It's edible.
I need to go to the store and buy more containers; almost all of mine are already in the freezer with various foodstuffs in them.
20# since Feb. 1st. Whoohoo!
Nice feeling, isn't it? I got some Ball jar freezable containers, 1 and 2 cups each, and am making soups on the weekends for the second half of the workweek. It all goes into the freezer. It is great. I have some bean soup and some squash soup waiting for tonight and tomorrow night.
What did you put in it, veggie wise?
I used some leftover chicken broth, 1/2 a beer, and waterChunks of chickencarrotsceleryoniongarlic thymeItalian parsleysaltpepperbowtie pastaI was going to throw in some potato, but they'd gone bad. Mainly it needed more salt and pepper. And more chicken broth and less water. But I certainly used up some leftovers, which was the point. And I have several bowls of the stuff in the freezer, had lunch today, and provided lunch for the guy I kind of date (with instructions to add a bunch of salt and pepper).
