TTC After a Loss

What's for dinner girls?

I had chicken, brown rice and salad. it was good, but why am i STILL hungry?

I think I'm going to have a bowl of cereal in a little bit.  Does anyone else eat something after dinner/ before bed? It's a bad habit I have.

Re: What's for dinner girls?

  • Mmm I used to always do cereal but now I don't eat grains/carbs. I miss my cereal. Now at night I snack on nut butter (sunflower, cashew or almond).

    Sounds like you needed more protein with your dinner! 

    ETA: WFD? Not sure. DH is going to a work thing, I'm trying to find someone to go out to eat with me, but if not it will probably be salad. Yawn.

  • DH is sick and can not eat so I was left to tend for myself ;-).  So I just had whole wheat cheese stuffed pasta with peas and tomato sauce.  Not one of my best dishes!

  • We're having day 3 of shepherd's pie.  I'm actually looking forward to it - it turned out great!

    As for the food after dinner question- I practically have to tie myself down so I don't snack.  It got really bad and it seemed like I was always snacking on something when I watched TV.  Eventually, my pants started getting tight.  So, I've put a stop to the practice.  I can eat whatever I want after dinner, but once I set my rear end on the couch, I don't let myself eat anything else.  It is really tough though.

  • I made slow cooker meatloaf yesterday, so we are having leftover meatloaf sandwiches for dinner tonight.  I am looking forward to it.  Meatloaf always seems to be better the next day.

    I am also a snacker.  I try to make sure that I am really hungry though before I snack, and if I do snack it is only on things that have built in portion control...like an english muffin, or apple or something.

  • ugh I'm still running low on groceries and I'm too lazy to head to the crowded grocery store. I'm thinking of making the recipe I was supposed to have made the other day. Turkey meatballs with Penne pasta. I'm not excited about it.

     ETA: I rarely snack after dinner unless I made a special dessert and I have room in my belly for it. My DH on the other hand has to have a bowl of cereal before going to bed. I HATE THAT! He eats with his mouth open and I get tired of hearing all of that crunching. Indifferent

    Wow your husband sounds just like mine. We eat dinner and I go to bed. He stays downstairs and snacks every single night. Grrrr. And he chomps with his mouth open too. Gets on my nerves!

  • My husband almost never cooks, but today he got home early from work and made Pesto Salmon with pasta!  It was delicious.  I was so happy to get a break from cooking today!
  • I made turkey soft taco's from my new Eat Clean cook book. I thought they would be bland, but I actually enjoyed the freshness and simple flavours. I added a bowl of raw baby carrots and it became a very filling meal indeed.
