Sacred Woman: Day 2: What I ate today..

Welcome

This is a documentation of my journey seeking "my best self"
I am a blessed woman, 2 healthy loving sons and an abundance of all that one needs.
This is not a journey to more of the material stuff, but in seeking my passion and living my best life.
Due to illness, parenting, and busy everyday life, life has lived me instead of me living life.
The purpose of this journey is to turn this back one step at a time.
How will I accomplish this? This I will learn gradually, one thing I am sure of each day of my journey will take me closer to myself.

Blessings,

ETA: I am separated and I can assure you it is for the better. The boys and I are doing good, they are sad but at least they have some breathing space now and don't have to march to the beat of their father's drum anymore. I am more relieved than sad and feel freed from his constant state of depression and lathargic way of living.

Day 2: What I ate today..

It's almost 9 and I just had a mug of coffee and a glass of water. I feel a bit queezy so I will eat in half an hour. Yesterday I was so encredibly full because I mostly have some breakfast and dinner and in between only lil snacks like: sweets and chips, my meds give me a horrible sweet craving and have a side effect called anorexie wich means less appetite. So I would have about 2800 kcal a day and about 800 would be from a healthy breakfast and dinner and the rest would be every kind of sweet imaginable. Yesterday I found that coffee and herbtea with sweetner and pieces of apple as "sweets" help to beat the craving. So I will definately do that again today.

Breakfast

Apple 1/2 30 kcal

Banana 1/2 45 kcal

Yoghurt skim bowl 50 kcal

Cane sugar 1/2 tbspoon 25 kcal

Total 150kcal

Lunch (too late 13:00)

whole weat bread 2 slices 170 kcal

Cheese 48+ 1 slice 75 kcal

Total: 245 kcal

Snacks etc

Milk low-fat 1 mug 110 kcal

coffee with sweetner 2 mugs 0 kcal

Total: 110 kcal

Dinner
raw veggies 300 gr. 42 kcal (cherry tomatoes, corn, cucumber, lettuce, apple & onion)
grilled chicken breast 250 gr. 435 kcal (1 tbsp of e.v. olive oil, clove of garlic, fresh ground pepper and salt)
Salad dressing 3 tbspoons 60 kcal
Total: 537 kcal

Day total a disappointing 1042 kcal. I had a mug of white tea with cane sugar (25 kcal) and 2 lil chocolate cookies ( 69 kcal) so my day total 1136 kcal

8 x 250 ml= 2000 ml = 67.6 fl oz.

* Today is turning into a eating nightmare! I am just not hungry, queezy, and extremely tired! I just went to the store to get everything for a filling salad I hope I can get it down (and keep it down) My body is missing all the sugar and eventhough I added some canesugar to my yoghurt it wasn't enough. I think I will make myself a big mug of chai-tea with canesugar and some milk.

Thanks 4 the tip about the supplements I do have one a day weight smart I was taking but stopped. I took one today and will start back taking them daily. I know my metabolism slowed down,I had my last child one week and turned 30 the next. I was 194 lbs. after she was born and has only increased since then. That was almost 5 years ago.
Thanks 4 keeping up with me it helps a lot.
