Dec. 9 food

Breakfast:   what else?    apple-cranberry salad

Lunch:  the last of the shepherd's pie. which I ate over a bed of chopped lettuce and arugula. I'm starting to think you can eat anything over chopped greens--just think of them as a substitute for rice. I ate two helpings to finish it off and it was a bit too much.  I am slightly improving on overeating at mealtime but still am not there.  It's a learning process because I'm also training myself to not snack in between meals and I'm learning how big my meals need to be to last until the next one.   Funny, when I was a kid, we ate this way too--3 meals a day, no snacks, and no desserts.  I was skinny too.   Coincidence?

Then house-mate was cold and wanted some hot chocolate so I had an idea for both hot cocoa and chocolate-cashew dip (inspired by a discussion on the Fuhrman forums).  It was great!   I made my portion with carob powder and dipped a banana in it.  

Dinner:  I had a big lunch and had to run out for a meeting, so just had a grapefruit and banana with the carob-cashew dip.  yummy.
