Not really craving much, so I think I'm eating enough. Today's lunch might have been a little "light" since it was mostly lettuce. I felt like I had too much carbs today, feeling a little sluggish. I wonder if my early lunch hunger was due to the apple I ate at lunch. I wish I could afford to shop regularly at Whole Foods, I spent a lot of time reading labels at regular grocery stores, but I know it's good practice. I made some chili tonight, and it ended up being 4 x 2 cup portions, so yay! I will post the recipe tomorrow. I'm feeling less exhausted cooking and cleaning with the knowledge that I can toss together a compliant "cold lunch" (or dinner) if I need to. I'm cooking almost daily, but it's not for that night's meal, but for the next night. There's something comforting knowing dinner is ready and just needs to be heated and plated, so the busy time in the kitchen can be broken up rather than feeling chained to the stove.
