So I went to pilates today and had my protein shake after and then headed to my sisters house for lunch and applesauce making. She had a lovely lunch made for us of homemade carrot soup (she switched up from vegetable) and spinach salad. It was probably around 100pm when we finally ate. About 300p I was aware of some nagging hunger pains and the starting of a headache but I didn't pay much attention as I was so busy making applesauce. By 330p I need to have a couple pieces of cheese with a couple crackers. I left around 400p and driving home I was dying - starving and headache got bad. I realized the problem. Not having protein with my lunch was making a huge difference for me. I was melting and melting fast and now because i was so hungry the cravings were starting. I was dreaming of going through the Tim Hortons drive thru and getting a donut, running into a variety store and getting some doritos...everything I sooo can not do. So I got back to London at 430p and ran into the variety store to get my magazines that came out today and I also grabbed a bag of Munchos - one of my fav chips. Got home to mass craziness, babysitter, kids running around, backpacks needing to be unpacked. Its now just after 500pm and I have not opened that bag of chips and nor will I. I am now going to start putting my salad plate together with a ton of chicken and chick peas and I know I will be fine. This was a blip and I'm proud I was able to not rip that bag of chips open. And I learned a valuable lesson - protein with my lunch is uber important.
