Apples

Apples are off my list of foods for the time being. I ate one yesterday (along with a banana, some strawberries, and yogurt) during my low-food day and I was fine. Today I had a few wedges dipped in my yo-cheese almond butter mix and immediately bloated like whoa. It's been nearly three hours and I'm still swollen so much the waistband of my skirt is riding about two inches too high. I'm not a huge fan of apples except as a carrier food (mostly for yo-cheese almond butter) so this isn't too much of a hardship.

After feeling starved all day yesterday, today I'm not so interested in eating. Go figure. I had my morning juice and wide array of daytime supplements, followed by an iced coffee before I left for work. Before my 9:30 meeting I had another cup of coffee with milk. I had a banana when I returned to my desk at 1:00, followed by the apples and dip about thirty minutes later.

Tonight, I'm making posole and a salad. Maybe some white cheddar and guava paste for dessert. Perhaps some tortilla chips with the stew, but otherwise light on carbs. I need to get some good calories in. I haven't eaten much today. And I'm so bloated I don't feel much like eating anything now. Bleh.

Oh hey. I still have apple juice left over from my aborted fast. mckitterick's not drinking it and it's taking up way too much room in the fridge. Anybody local care to claim it?
