Not Feeling Hungry

   Still stuffed after last night's haggis dinner so breakfast was late and light - just half a banana. OK, I did have a coffee and granola bar during this morning's meeting but that doesn't count, does it? I needed to stay attentive and alert.


   Lunch followed the meeting and I managed to restrain myself. I have learned when eating out I don't have to completely clean my plate. I ate all the vegetables and most of the chicken breast but left half of the potatoes. Also, I only ate half a roll with my salad. Tonight will be a light dinner and I will try to be finished by 7:00 p.m. then fast until 9:30 tomorrow morning. A good plan but can I stick to it?
(Did you notice I didn't mention dessert?)

  2. Oh I like the philosophy of eat dessert first, life is uncertain. I am leaning into the finish eating by 7pm & not starting until 7:30am. I think it's the evening mindless snacking that has been my downfall.

    1. Yes, that's where it has really helped me. Good luck with that.

  3. I try to make sure that I finish eating by 7 p.m. each day as I need to take medication on an empty stomach before going to bed. I don't usually have breakfast until around 8 30-9:00 a.m. so I get a good period of fasting overnight!

    1. That's quite a good fast. I haven't lost any weight yet but haven't gained any either!
