Thursday, Day 6, Week 1

I don't seem to get very hungry during the day any more. Dentist appointment at 1:00 PM today. Had an apple before it, in case I needed it to handle the stress of having someone put an extremely pointy scythe-shaped object into my mouth and poke around at stuff. Had a banana at 3:00 PM in order to get the dentist-taste out of my mouth afterwards. Not feeling hungry at all.

7:30 PM - I just had a huge dinner. I started it out by chowing down on a piece of maple flavoured ham about a half inch thick and about 4 inches in diameter (it was an oval/circular shaped piece). Then after that I had some veggies (carrots/corn/peas/beans), and about two plates of pasta with onion mixed in, some kind of sauce, and some more ham mixed in. Totally felt stuffed at the end of it all, to the point where I actually left a little bit of food uneaten. Haven't drunk any water at all today, though I drank two cups of 1% milk at dinner.

10:20 - going to bed. Nothing special to report. Tomorrow I'll be on my feet all day, helping a guy who's building a house. I won't be doing hard labour or anything, but it will be more exerting than just sitting around all day. We'll have to see how my energy levels play out.

Concluding thoughts: I definitely think I'm starting to eat more at dinnertime. I need to record my calories/carbs/protein/fat at dinner sometime soon. Hunger not bad at all.
