A Hungry Day!

There are days I call "Hungry Days" that I feel like I could eat the cupboards.  Today was one of those days.  In addition, it was full of a lot of stress .. ones I could control and those that I could not.  These times can be difficult and the long-standing call to "eat" was ever present today.  

These days are the tough ones and what this process is all about .. learning "how" to take control of your old learned behaviors and substitute them with new thought processes and new behaviors.  I did NOT give in to eating anything I could get my hands on or grabbing chocolate (I do not keep it in the house).  

I did choose a Large meal for dinner to "fill me up" with foods I could have that would leave me feeling "full" and leave me satiated, while also watching my calories.  

My calorie intake is up about 150-200 calories more than I would have liked, but I am okay with it .. given that it was a "Hungry Day".  I also drank water to help, but not as much as I should .. still working on that.
