A good thing from being sick
Jul. 11th, 2002 09:09 pmwell, other than the ten or so pounds I seem to have lost from NOT eating.
I don't recommend this at all. It sucked the big one.
And I'm not all that happy about it.
However my appetite seems to have shrunk. This may be only due to residual sick, but I'm struggling to keep it that way. Like lunch was a sandwich, only half the size as I'd usually eat, a couple of pickles and two cookies. Dinner was soup and rice, again, only half as much as I'd usually eat. I MAY allow myself some ice cream later, but only if I don't feel full, I'm not pushing it. I've never been big on denying myslef food, but I would like to eat more in the heathly range, like Laura does. And I seem to be craving it, so I'm going with it. Maybe this is just what my body needed to get away from my tax season diet of crap.
I like this whole eating less thing. Instead of stuffing my face once a day I should take this opportunity to start grazing. Still coughing and have little voice, and no real desire to get out of bed *grin* so I'm staying home from coffee. Now I just have to talk myself into going into the office tomorrow. Today is a total blow off, but I do have things to do over the weekend now.
