I'm
doing well nutrition-wise and satiety-wise. I accidentally skipped a meal
today; I didn't have breakfast until 11:30 & then skipped lunch other than a
carrot. I enjoyed my dinner -- Greek lentils with rice and steamed broccoli,
followed by an apple.
The biggest challenge so far is planning the
portions to make the food last. It's not something I usually think about; if I
run out of food, I just go get more. Here I need to be more careful about
measuring and considering how many portions can be made from an
item. Making these kinds of calculations on a regular basis would prove
mentally taxing. I am also very aware of the lack of variety available through
the few foods I was able to buy. Eating could easily become less a pleasure and
more fulfillment of need, which is not entirely a bad thing in our
over-consumption society.
