today wasn't a great eating day for me, I usually eat a huge breakfast but lately for some reason i'm not doing that, maybe stress, i dunno....but here's the thing I have a ridiculous amount of calories left over and i'm plain out not hungry...so what do I do? I don't eat nuts of any kind..so there goes that, including pb, it's almost 10 p.m here and i'm ready to go to bed....and the bagel, lol...was literally one bite of my daughters snack, but didn't taste nearly as good as it smelled...any help...this is becoming a trend for me, this low eating, heavy exercising is becoming a scary habit...any suggestions?

oh gotta edit, not all the snacks are eaten at snack times, it's just where I have them and don't want to look up the food evertime..i'm just lazy..the grapes, egg, were also for breakfast.

    what do I mix protein powder with? I like my steak, but my doc told me I shouldn't eat it more then 3 days a week....i have no clue why :laugh: , not a huge fan of chicken and I hate seafood, except the tuna packed in water, and scallops..i'm really looking for help now, before this really starts affecting me, i'm worried about the not hungry part more than anything..that baffles me

    I mix it in oatmeal for breakfast...
    with ice , water and bluberries
    with ice water and pnut butter
    with milk
    with fage yogurt
    not with juice...too much sugar in juice

    does that up the calorie count as well, the powder itself? or just the protein? any recommendations?

    no, it's not, that's what's so weird about this. I recently had some bad news about a loved one, stress...lack of sleep, the whole nine yards, and my appetite is just gone, I figured i'd get over it, but it hasn't happened, I wonder if stress can cause this?? and even with the shreddies at lunch, it was one cup, with milk, and I couldn't even finish it :noway:

    I did two hot yoga classes, a step class, 1 hour in the pool swimming laps, the elliptical for anhour and 40 minutes of weight lifting..i'm little psycho with the exercise, I love it, I just wished I liked to eat, I really don't like it, and that seems to be a strange thing.....btw, it feels so incredibly strange to post my food diary on here, almost as if I had toilet paper stuck to my shoe....odd

    Depression can also cause loss of appetite and inability to sleep. Something you might consider depending on what the bad news was you recieved. I agree you need more protein too - it made all the difference for me. I mix mine with milk most of the time right after I work out. Hang in there!

    I wish I could NOT make myself eat enough! hardy har har. But seriously, I agree with Dave. Protein. I have a chocolate whey protein shake that I mix with ice and rice milk in the blender. You can also use frozen berries and make a smoothie. You can mix protein shakes with water or lowfat milk and ice.

    Can't hurt to check it out. We women are usually so busy taking care of everyone else that we ignore ourselves. Good that you're exercising but maybe you need to lighten up a bit on it and do something nurturing for yourself occasionally.:flowerforyou:
