what happened today

[Guest guest]

I more or less waited until I was hungry to eat breakfast. I had my usual, half

of a whole wheat bagel and spread (hummus & other stuff). I left the house and

wanted to get the lunch special curry chicken, but before that I had to go to an

iPod class. Anyway, by the time I got to the lunch special it was too late and I

was famished. And very tired. So I went to the Chinese buffet because I was too

tired to think about making something at home. I teased myself briefy thinking

that they had salads, etc. and I could have that to fill up on before I got to

the rice, noodles and blah blah. I suppose the only good thing about the buffet

was that I stopped eating before I got sick. I was really really full but I

hadn't had watermelon for a long time and I took a piece of that, even after I

really had enough (plenty) to eat. In the past I would have stuffed myself, and

although I did get too full I did stop and not keep eating whatever else I

liked. When I got home I went to sleep because I was very tired, and I noticed

that about 4 1/2 hours later I began to think about food again. I am not on a

diet, but I am trying to make choices that will satisfy both my thinking ability

(my mind) and my body. So I had celery sticks with hummus because I am working

to cut out some salt (even though the chinese food is reeking with salt). Giving

this some thought, I think that next time I have such hunger I am going to a

restaurant (not a buffet) that serves eggs and toast or something like that. I

gotta think this through. I didn't want fast food, although I could have had

that. I really need to find a restaurant that will serve a simple meal.
