Hunger

Through most of my life I could never comprehend the saying, “I just forgot to eat”.

In the past few months I seem to be embracing that concept. Not necessarily on purpose… And most certainly, at the beginning, accidentally. But I am finding, more and more, I am forgetting to eat.

Now when I am at work this is not an issue. I have a fairly routine schedule and I eat appropriately. But when I’m home (and most especially on my days off work) I go for hours without eating.

This happened again today. I was encouraged to get out of bed by the dogs. The girls were up and about but the dogs felt I was done sleeping so they whined and scratched art my door until I got up and let them outside. (Yay….).

So my day started. First thing I put the roasts into the slow cooker. Did laundry. Went out and ran a few errands. Fussed with the roasts. Did more laundry. Before I knew it the time was 130 pm and I had a bit of a headache. As I was fussing with the roasts again I realized I had not eaten anything today. I had about 6 cups of coffee and subsequent water… But no food.

I ate an avacado and apple and felt much better.

I’m all for limiting calories and eating responsibly… But I still need to eat!
