So, we made it through the holidays fairly unscathed! I say fairly, because I am dumped at the other side with no energy, and a raging appetite. Why? I don't know. Too many snacks I guess, not enough exercise, a period that always gets me these days ... and a houseful of people day, after day, after day!
Well, I have an empty house at last, and I am going through recipes, looking for a meal plan for the rest of the week. Though it is Wednesday already, so I am halfway there! I am trying to judge my cravings. The past few days I haven't been able to get full. I think this is because I have no true desire for a certain food, so I don't know what to eat, so I don't eat, and then I get RAVENOUS. It's been kind of tough, because when I get so hungry I just NEED to eat. I have also been fighting dehydration. Yesterday I drank four full glasses of water before I had to pee. And I still had a lingering headache. I sweat so much when I do the bike (which is pretty much daily) and can't seem to get ahead of it.
Again, I don't seem to have any one food that I want. I also seem to get super full really fast (this morning I ate a ton of cheese to get full.) I know this isn't right, but I have no desire for eggs, there was nothing else in the fridge and the smoothie didn't even touch my hunger. But the cheese and some chocolate afterward stuffed me to the gills. But I can feel the hunger coming back. It is so crazy! Last night we went out to eat and I had a salad, which was delicious, and then I had a piece of salmon, a few bites of rice and I was STUFFED. Weird. I can't seem to get a handle on my appetite right now. What do I want to eat? Last night I thought I wanted a flatbread pizza, the description sounded so yummy. But I figured since Charlie and Peter were both ordering it, I could have a bite. Thank heavens I didn't order it -- didn't taste good to me at all. I wish there was a pill I could pop that would take care of my dietary needs and be done with it. No, seriously.
So I have been going through recipes and pictures of food all morning and nothing is jumping out at me. Nothing. What is going on???
I am thinking I need to do a juice fast or something. Did I mention this already? I think that is what I need to do.
