- Breakfast - three ghee-fried eggs (overcooked because I was trying to appease Leela. I'm not sure why I try sometimes), garlicky greens, half a sweet potato, half an avocado.
- PreWO - snack handful (12) of almonds at 10:50.
- PostWO - hard boiled egg white
- Lunch - last of the carrot ginger soup with a handful of coconut flakes, hard boiled egg with hot sauce, and a large serving of steamed asparagus (7 stalks!).
- I couldn't decide what to have for dinner, I had the "bacon" all ready for BLTs, but Ebon wasn't going to be around, so I decided to make the stuffed peppers. They had eggs, mushrooms, and spinach. They would have been better with cheese, but they still tasted pretty good and were filling. Leela had leftover pizza. After putting Leela to bed, I finished most of the grapes that I had cut up a couple weeks ago.
I had a pretty bad headache, so I went to bed early, but I'm still craving cheese and sweets pretty bad. The timeline says these are the "hardest days: redefine your idea of reward. Think long and hard about the foods you’re grieving and ask yourself what need you’re expecting them to fulfill. Are you feeling anxious and looking for reassurance? Are you feeling sad, and looking for something to cheer you up? Are you worried you won’t successfully finish the program, and it’s easier to self-sabotage than fail? Remind yourself that food cannot fill that void for you—cannot make you feel truly accomplished, comforted, calm, happy, beautiful. Then, find another way to fill that need that does not involve those foods. Prepare yourselves for these days, knowing that all you have to do is see them through to the other side before things get much, much easier."
I probably need to delve into this more, but not right now.
