i'm learning some lessons about my food choices. i follow this plan where as long as a food falls into a certain category, i can choose which one i want. for example...if we're talking protein, i can choose if i want it to be chicken, steak, cheese, milk, yogurt, fish, soynuts, legumes etc. if we're talking fruit, i can choose if i want it to be a banana, cantaloupe, all-fruit jelly, raisins, strawberries, kiwi, plums, etc. grains? i can pick rice, bread, potatoes, corn, snap peas, quinoa, oatmeal, crackers, etc.
get what i'm sayin? ok so this is what i'm learning....certain foods really stay with me and are very satisfying while others are not good choices because i get hungry really fast and i have trouble making it to my next meal.
proteins that last for tina: cheese, eggs
grains that last for tina: oatmeal, quinoa, ezekial bread
fruits that last for tina: cantaloupe, mango, berries
fats that last for tina: salad dressing, nuts
veggies that last for tina: squash, carrots
and here's my list of foods that are on my plan and are options for me but they do not help me feel satiated (full/satisfied)
proteins that suck for tina: yogurt, milk, fish
grains that suck for tina: potatoes, tortilla chips,
fruits that suck for tina: all-fruit spread, dried fruit, bananas
fats that suck for tina: half and half, sourcream, mayonnaise
veggies that suck for tina: V8 juice, mostly lettuce salads
find the foods that work for you and choose them most often. it will help you keep from getting too hungry and will help you prevent the "fuck its" when it comes to your food. you have lots to choose from, so make the best choices for YOU.
