2/24/10 - wednesday
Holy cow, I have been bad at this. I will start by saying that I don't even WANT to log my food today. I have been snacking like a mad person. And decided to have my 310 calorie lunch to try to keep me full longer. It didn't really work.
Chuck has rejoined the Loseit bandwagon with me. I have been given permission to make him log his food and be a pain in the butt! Ha!
I really need to set time aside to make and plan more meals. I would like to bring more lunches. This is cheaper than buying food for the week on Monday. It's a lot of dedication to food to pack a lunch. I know Chuck will appreciate me doing it, though. All too often, he fails to eat a lunch during the day because he is busy. If I make him something, there is a greater probability of him eating something. (Crap...I am starting to sound like a programmer!)
I have also learned about "bento" recently. It's something done in Japan where they prepare portion controlled meals and usually make characters, faces, shapes, etc. out of the food. There are many websites about this and I think it's a really fun way to spice up an otherwise boring lunch. It can be done with anything from salads to fanciful healthy foods to making smiley faces on cheese on top of your leftovers.
Now if I just had the time for this. But maybe it's time to make the time.
Chuck sent me a message before I left work and wanted me to meet him at a pizza buffet for dinner. It was delicious, but man, I did NOT need those calories. I just ate what I wanted and decided I would start fresh tomorrow! Sometimes it's healthy to splurge...right!? :)
