It must be the hot weather that has me craving salads. Well, that and the nutrients in the greens. I took a course back in the 80's called, "Thin Within", that dealt with the emotional issues of being overweight, and taught me how to listen to my body. One week, the 'homework' was to really tune in to what my body was asking for, and just eat whatever it was. I ate oysters on the half shell for 4 days, straight! LOL. I didn't lose a lot of weight on the program, but I did take away a better understanding of my relationship with my body and food. Now that I've started listening again, and have a food plan that actually works, I'm very happy, and so is my body.
Yesterday, I had the busiest day at work that I've had in at least a year. I'm so glad I scheduled a lunch break! I got a BBQ-Ranch salad with grilled chicken from Wendy's, had them leave off the BBQ sauce, and switched regular ranch dressing for the BBQ ranch (lower carbs). It was pretty good, but the chicken had a faint disinfectant flavor to it. :P As usual, I was only able to eat half of it. I think I'm glad I didn't eat more, because later in the afternoon, my gut was distinctly uneasy, and that lasted until I went to bed.
I'm off work today, so it's a pool day.
Have a great Thursday, buddies!
