    Nothing sounds good at all?

    Times like this it is really hard to help people because we don't know what they like and normally eat. So here goes nothing...

    Cottage cheese with fruit
    Salad with cheese and pecans
    Yogurt smoothie
    Avacado
    Peanut butter on a bagel toasted

    You've got to eat something. Light headed is NOT good.

    Don't think about it as eating for pleasure, think about it as fueling your body for what it needs to do...so much of it starts and ends in your head. How much does it really matter if it sounds good or not? Would you rather faint walking through the mall? Grab an apple and a protein bar and get on with your day.

    Perhaps heat up some soup? When nothing sounds good that at least goes down easy and gets rid of the lightheadedness. Or else I would suggest peanut butter toast.

    What are your food preferances?

    Soup and crackers?
    Scrambled egg and toast?

    You like hummus? I do a flatbread roll up sandwich sometimes.
    Flatbread lite italian herb
    hummus
    spring mix
    2 slices of ham

    Flour tortilla. lightly baste it with olive oil, add a slice or two of tomato, feta cheese, a sprinkle of mozeralla cheese, fresh basil and bake at 425 till cheese just starts to melt. Tasty.

    Any help yet?
