It is only day two of eating healthier to get into good shape for my next pregnancy. All ready, I feel great. I feel like I have more energy and I feel less depressed. I wonder if my depression could have been in part caused by low blood sugar and not eating wholefully. If that is so then I hope I could eventually stop the anti depressants. Not today or tomarrow. In the future, some time. When my doctor thinks it is wise. I wanted to let everybody know that so that they do not think I am about to go off my medications. I have no intention of doing that
The only problem is my caloric intake. I am still eating too much. I am allready at the 1600 mark and it is still early in the day. What is going on is that I snack when I feel my blood sugar drop. It is not a huge snack. I am hungry frequently during the day. I know I am going to have to eat again!
If only I had not had the chocolate. May be my calories would be lower. The rub is that I like to snack on chocolate. That is what is making my blood sugar drop. The peanut butter and crackers did not do it. It was the sweets I ate today. I need to throw them out or eat them just to get rid of them. They are bad.
Of course, cutting out all chocolate and deserts is pretty much impossible. I just hope I still lose weight with the vegan foods I am incorporating into my diet and the exercise. I do not know if I will see an eight pound weight loss in the next month, though.
Not everything I have eaten today has been high in sugar and fat. I have had brown rice, oatmeal, corn, kimchi, beans, oranges, crackers. peanut butter and I have drank plenty of water. I take a multi vitamin. I am taking a calcium and vitamin D tablet. So, I am making healthier choices. I should be giving myself a high five, now that I think about it.
I still have a lot to learn, though. I will continue to read about the subject of eating healthier. I will continue to lose weight. I am going to do this.
