License to eat.

Slab of pineapple, yum!

All I do all day long is eat or think about what I'm going to eat next. Because eating makes my tummy feel better. I'm starting to realize that I need to start paying attention to what I'm eating, since I'm eating all the time. So rather than eating a full meal every time I eat, which would result in tens of thousands of calories consumed a day, I eat snacks or mini-meals ALL DAY LONG. I've noticed a combination of carbs and protein does a tummy especially good.

Here is what I ate today:

• a cereal bar, even before I got out of bed - this helps
• an egg and cheese english muffin, a morning staple
• watermellon
• a slice of homemade banana bread
• an apple with peanut butter
• an orange
• a ham and cheese sandwich
• a small bowl of stir-fry (made by my super husband!)
• some gelato from Java Cat
• pineapple (see above photo)
• another slice of banana bread
• a small bowl of noodles and chicken (another EZ special!)
• a glass of milk

I just feel like that is a ridiculous amount of food. But I know I would have felt terrible had I missed anything! I will continue to work on adding in more fruits and veggies. I also got out for a walk today (yes, it was to Java Cat) AND did about 20 minutes of yoga.

Day by day mama. Day by day.
