My Stomach is Confused

I think my stomach is confused. Last night, I got home at 8pm from a great 12 hour shift. I was starving by the time I walked in the door and considered eating a Fiber One bar and calling it good, but I didn't think that would satisfy me. I enjoy breakfast foods for dinner time, and so I pulled out the toaster waffles.

Last night's dinner for me...

- 2 blueberry flavored nutragrain Eggo waffles toasted

- 1 medium apple with the peel on, chopped, microwaved for 20 seconds to soften it a bit

- 1 TBSP all natural peanut butter

- 1 TSP cinnamon

So, for 8P I toasted 2 waffles, smeared them with peanut butter, which melted nicely into delicious gooey-ness, topped with a slightly-softened chopped apple and sprinkled cinnamon on the whole thing. It was delicious! The jury is still out about cinnamon's healthy side effects, however, since I like cinnamon and eat it pretty regularly, I think I'll be upgrading my cinnamon shaker soon with some higher-quality cinnamon.

This morning, I wanted to go for a run, but needed to get some things done first. While making the kids lunches, I threw together breakfast for me - oddly, it was a "lunch" that I ate for breakfast...

- 2 slices wheat bread

- 1 tsp yellow mustard (NSV: I skipped the mayo!!)

- Boars Head Ever Roast chickenbreast

- 1 orange

- large handful of lettuce on the sandwich

- 1 banana

So for 4P I had a very filling breakfast. I ended up not eating the banana, I took it with me on my errands and forgot about it! I also had lots of water.

I think I'm doing okay diet-wise. I changed my weigh-in day to today (Mondays) because it's easier for me to remember. I'm 146 today. I ran 3 miles this morning in 36 minutes. Not too shabby.

I'm not hungry - but I'm eating breakfast anyway!

I woke up very not-hungry. I woke up with a migraine headache and did not want to eat anything, but I know that's against the correct way of eating. So, I cooked for the family and had just enough food to be able to say that I ate breakfast.

One egg

One turkey sausage

One cup of cherries

Wash that down with a cup of water, a can of Coke and 800mg of Motrin (my fill in for Excedrin, since I'm out), and total damage done this morning - 8 points. The Coke is what really caused a jump in points, but my noggin' feels so much better, so it was worth it!

I know my plate looks rather pitiful, I probably could have added some whole wheat toast to round out the meal, and perhaps added some fresh squeezed OJ to replace the Coke.
