Everyday Systems

Hi everybody. Just found the daily check in forum. This is great because I have been on this sight a LOT since I joined and I have been posting lots and feeling a little annoying for everyone so, now I have a place to keep all my annoyingness contained!

I guess I'll just say "hi" and introduce myself (again). If you want more go to my post called "I'm new!" Ah, back then I was bright eyed and bushy tailed. I'm fifteen. I'm in high school I'm on day 12 and tbh right now it really sucks. (I've posted about that in more detail too, "mental blocks.") I think why I'm struggling so much right now (PLEASE be dinner time already!) is because I ate a pretty awful lunch. We didn't have any leftover so I had like two pieces of beef jerky, baby carrots, and some crackers. It tasted amazing after my morning run, but an afternoon of shopping quickly sent the hunger rushing right back. Now, I'm tryna do my geometry and (Oh, my stomach just literally growled...loudly) as you can see, not much geometry is being done, because I needed some support. So yeah. Today is sucking pretty bad right now. I will survive, I will survive!

Day 13.

Success.

Today has been a bit of a mixed bag. Breakfast was a frozen yogurt bar (there were only 11 grams of sugar, I didn't count it as a sweet), some raw, unsalted nuts, and 2 kiwis. I usually have greek yogurt and fruit of some kind but I changed it up a little bit for hump day. Lunch was a tuna sandwich, some frozen vegetable bights, cheese and crackers and watermelon. It was a large lunch. Also probably very high in sodium. It left me feeling a little uncomfortably full, and also none too happy about all the garbage I had consumed. But we're still out of leftovers at my house, so I've been roughing it the past two days. I haven't eaten dinner but I know what I'm going to have. Chicken potpie filling with a biscuit. It's homemade so it'll be pretty healthy, no added sodium, sugar, cream etc. So yeah, by the *rules* today was a success, but not the most healthy Oh, and I have to go to art class tonight, so there shouldn't be much temptation to snack, so that's a plus!

Sounds like you're doing great! Sodium is in EVERYTHING. I feel like its hard to avoid unless you make everything from scratch. Who has time for that!?

Day 14.

Success!

This is a big one for me, It's been two whole weeks since I ate any candy, ice cream or stuff like that! Today was a really great day and I learned two important lessons: Water rocks and late lunches rock. For breakfast I had my usual no fat plain Greek yogurt with a green apple and some peanut butter granola (yum! Never fails to please.) Then after breakfast the hunger was getting pretty bad. It was at like 11:00 am and that hour till lunch was feeling REAL long. I drank a big glass of water and...IT ACTUALLY WORKED! I was completely un-hungry after that! This also may have had something to do with the fact that my brother called me and I was distracted talking to him for like an hour but either way, I was happy Then I went for my run later than usual which pushed lunch back till 1:00 p.m. I had two bunches of really good grapes and a salad with avocados, cucumbers, and a handful of cashews on it. Then dinner was a burger with avocado and onion, some baked beans and watermelon. It was an awesome day. I feel really satisfied and the diet is working great right now!
