January 4th

For breakfast, I had 1/2 cup greek yogurt, 1/2 cup strawberries, 1 tbsp honey, and 1 piece of toast with peanut butter.

I was on campus today, so I packed a lunch: a fried tofu sandwich, 2 mini-apples with 2 tbsp peanut butter, and a little bag of almonds. I ate one of the apples and half the pb around 10, then devoured the sandwich around 11:30. I was starving after my 1:30-2:45 class, and ate 17 almonds to tide me over, then the other apple and the rest of the pb when I got home around 4.

Supper was delicious but gross looking: defrosted sweet potato and lentil soup, with 2 pieces of bread. I had 2 Midgies as a treat right afterward.

Looking at my eats for the last couple of days, I have been pretty bread-heavy. I'm not really sure what else to do, though. I looked at the carbohydrate content of various pastas at Bulk Barn today, and they're all prohibitively high. I'll look into rice. Once I'm done this loaf of bread, I'll probably buy some pitas or tortillas and go nuts with those for a while, too.

Not related to carbohydrates in any way, but look how healthy I'm being:



Eating like a diabetic AND taking my vitamins? Total overachiever right now. That is some omega 3, a multivitamin, and calcium (not in delicious swiss chocolate form, because I had the Midgies and therefore used up my treat for the day).

I also bought these, which I am excited about trying:



They're all relatively low in carbs (the highest one is the middle with 21 g), and relatively high in protein (between 4-15.5 g). They're not perfect-- I just discovered the KIND bar has glucose AND honey in it, boo -- but they'll be a nice change.

I'm a little worried about getting bored and burning out on the food I've been eating. I have been eating a shitload of nuts and peanut butter. Is that bad for you? Am I in danger of developing a sensitivity to nuts if I eat them constantly? Dunno.
