Felt much better after lunch today. This morning I still felt really off and emotional. I don’t normally get emotional.
Breakfast was eaten on the run as I got up really late. Strange. Normally when my feet hit the floor I am wide a wake been like that most of my adult life. Not today. Could hardly open my eyes on the way into the bathroom to start getting ready for the day. Felt better with in about ten minutes.

Had an afternoon snack at 10:00 of pumpkin seeds. Not sure how old they were LOL. Found them in my desk. Still tasted good.

Lunch went well. Came home for a whole hour. I even weighed my chicken. I had a whole glass of water, 3 ounces chicken breast (3.1 to be exact), 8 large slices of cucumber and 1.5 cups of split pea soup. I felt soooooooo much better after lunch. AND Drum roll please. I ate every single bit of the chicken. It was tough but I did it.

After work I had to go pick up some paperwork from the vet. On the way home I thought I am not going to make my 5:30 timing. So I decided to stop by whole foods and grab something and eat it in my car. I had a serving of Greek yogurt (vanilla) normally I get plain. I got these things called parmesan crisps. All they are are parmesan cheese that had been baked to make crisps. There were pretty good. I also got potato salad that had red potatoes with skin. And my sweet. I sat out in the car (hot) and ate. Making sure to start with the protein first. The only thing I was missing was a tall glass of cold water. Had I thought about it in the store I would have bought a water. Grabbed one as soon as I got home. I really wanted to shop around at Whole Foods to see what things I might want to by for food next week. But had to tell myself – ‘No you do not have time, you need to eat by 5:30. You can always go back another time” I ended up eating closer to 5:45. I guess I could have gone back in after I ate but oh well by that time I just wanted to get home to my dogs.
