i'm drinking a glass of V8 but i do NOT like it. i like tomato juice but not v8. or maybe it is because i'm drinking the low sodium v8?

does anyone else drink tomato juice and/or v8? i like the tomato juice you get on airplanes. what kind is that!

i wish i was snacking on cottage cheese - but we don't have any

8/13/2009 5:03:27 PM

I'm about to have some string cheese.

Dr's orders: eat every 2-3 hours, and have smaller meals, or snack (what feels like constantly) kindasorta hourly 90-150cal range.

I most emphatically do not want or like this.

8/13/2009 5:11:22 PM

^ that is what i do

i'm a freak. i talked to my dr about it yesterday and she said the same thing - it is healthier. who knew. and my mom always yelled at me for not finishing my meals and for "snacking" too much. i KNEW i was right all these years

It's healthier if you eat well while doing so.
I've never been accused of having good nutrition habits , and breaking the snacking habit was a hard move, and a very good one.

I started having problems with my blood sugar being wonky and unpredictable, and it got to the point that eating in a way to prevent wild variations was doing nothing at all, so I went to the doctor, figuring that being fat and having a firmly established history of diabetes type II meant that I would have it, too.

Except, I don't. And the doctor still doesn't know what's wrong. He had thyroid function tested, I'm not anemic, and I don't have an imbalance of Ca/K/Na. He's theorized that I have reactive hypoglycemia, and that I could either go to a dietecian, and be told to have 6 small meals, 2-3hrs apart, and to eat even MORE fiber and exercise regularly, or I could do it on my own. Talking further with the nurse, she said if I don't want to do the 6meal deal, to try to graze very lightly more or less continuously. Some days, 6 meals is an option. Other days, continual grazing is better.

So I'm doing this, and we'll see what happens. There are some other things going on that tell me it's not "just" this, and may warrant another visit (namely, loss of appetite, and unbelieveable cravings for what seems to be the most random stuff - this past weekend, I was licking salt off tortilla chips, and just couldn't get enough, and I just couldn't stop.)

I know it's kind of crazy to hear from a fat chick, but I don't like food all that much any more. It's becoming a major deal to force myself to eat because it's "time" to eat, especially when not only am I not hungry, I specifically do not want to eat. At all.

sour gushers

8/13/2009 6:53:52 PM

^ yum

^^ yea that is why i said "snacking" i don't mean potato chips (though sometimes i do just want chips and dip) but i'd snack on anything and everything when i was younger. carrot sticks. bananas. and my mom would be like "why do you never stop eating!!!" and then when we'd eat dinner i'd only eat a tiny portion. i guess i have a hard time relating because i am a grazer i always have been. so not eating 1000 a day seems strange to me - though i think your loss of appetite is kind of odd and i can understand how not being hungry would make you ill at the thought of forcing yourself to eat. i eat a little bit and get full, then like 2 hours later i'm hungry again, so i eat again.

i hope you figure out what is going on! in other only kind of related news, i have been feeling WAY tired and have been having weird cravings recently too and it turms out i am anemic and now have to watch what i eat more and take supplements!

Cookout unfortunately.....should have stayed home and eaten cereal and maybe that asshole wouldn't have almost side-swiped my clean car.

^ sorry I was distracted by the shiny

8/22/2009 1:59:28 AM

LOL What?

8/22/2009 2:11:14 AM

We almost went to cookout, but then decided we were drunk enough to stay here

8/22/2009 2:13:49 AM

Well, if he ALMOST side swiped it, then isn't it still clean? And intact? Why are you bitching then? You've got cookout, shut the fuck up.

8/22/2009 2:14:12 AM

I'm not bitchin'....but if I was, I could. Most of my food ended up in the backseat floorboard and my drink spilled all in my cupholder. Also, my tires and breaks are bad and DEF don't need to be swerving and slamming on breaks unnecessarily. But again, who's bitchin?!?!?

8/22/2009 2:22:35 AM

You. About almost being hit and having food spilled in your poorly maintained vehicle.

8/22/2009 2:24:08 AM
