So as I mentioned this morning today is a busy day and I tried to plan ahead. I had my banana on the way to my eyelash appt and then at 1045am while I was waiting for my hair appt I had my snack which was a small amount of quinoa with chopped peppers, cucumbers, carrots and a sprinkling of balsamic vinegar. (side note - Rita has told me that instead of getting fixated on what to eat for snacks, just eat a smaller portion of a meal like a salad or chopped veggies or small piece of chicken etc...) I left my appt around 130p and I began to think about my next meal because dinner won't be until close to 700p and I knew it would be a nice filling supper. So I made a grave error. It was cold, I was tired, I stopped at Quiznos thinking I would get a small veggie sub(which still wasn't a great choice but really would have been my only carb of the day - I don't count quinoa since its technically a fruit but is known more so as a grain) and instead I got a bowl of their broccoli soup. I brought it home and had it with 5 whole wheat crackers and some swiss cheese. The old Sarah ate meals like this all the time, the new Sarah should know better. It wasn't even 10 minutes after my final slurp of soup that my stomach started rebelling that meal. Not sure if it was the broccoli or the dairy in the soup or the cheese but the pain was intense and the bloating was instant. Its now an hour and a bit later and I'm chugging water to try and get rid of the bloating and yucky feeling. Lesson to self - no more soup unless I make it form scratch. And I think my body is finally getting it - clean foods GOOD, heavy dairy and fat laden foods BAD.
My body really does need that tenderloin tonight and I"m hoping the restaurant has some nice asparagus. That would be the perfect meal.
