Portion sizes back to normal
22 September 2007 by livingrainbowcolor
After that few days, I began to wonder if my portion sizes would stay so small. Today I notice that they are pretty much back to normal. Yesterday I ate quite normally at lunch, and when we went out to dinner, I cleaned my plate. Today has been much the same, and I am most satisfied with a “full” feeling, rather than my recent “just not hungry anymore” feeling. Both are ok.
I did eat a pile of chocolate yesterday, a reaction to DH’s taking the last of my new favorite chocolate. Read more about that and the chocolate on my chocolate blog here.
My positives:
- I loved getting comfortable with the lower level of eating. It didn’t feel bad at all, and I didn’t have the panic I once had at not feeling fuller.
- I’m coping with stress quite well lately, both work and home.
- This morning I realized I was doing things but not having fun. So I chose to start enjoying, and it made a big difference.
- Sleeping is fun.
- So is playing harp.
