Wednesday, May 13, 2009.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I feel back to normal today. <\/em> I went to the bank and post office first thing yesterday while I had energy, then worked for about 5 hours on the June magazine.\u00a0 Then I basically napped and lolled around the rest of the day while I took last minute ad deadline phone calls.\u00a0\u00a0 I ate very lightly: some soup, a Lean Cuisine<\/em> turkey and vegetables meal for supper, a boiled potato with some broccoli for dinner.\u00a0 So I am now kind of late working on the June Horizons<\/a> but I think I can do it in time.\u00a0 It always works out for me somehow.\u00a0 When I know something has to be done on time, I always muster the\u00a0 where with all to do it.\u00a0 I am going to implement some new and improved policies for eating.\u00a0 I already, for the most part, eat the right foods.\u00a0 I still have a habit, though,\u00a0 of overeating rice, bread and pasta.\u00a0 My new policies include:<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 At each eating segment, I will eat a meal the size of my fist.\u00a0 Not the size of my head.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0 I can eat this amount every 4 hours.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0 Lettuce and raw vegetable salads can be half the size of my head.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0 A serving of pasta or rice is one cup, not 4. (Ouch)<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0 The size of my protein and starch combined<\/em> can be the size of a deck of cards.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0 A baked potato serving is half a giant baking potato, not the whole thing.<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0 If I go to Subway, I have them cut the sandwich into thirds, and a meal is 1\/3 the sandwich, not half.<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0 After sundown, I will eat only raw salads and clear soups or fruit.\u00a0 One fist sized meal only during the hours between dusk and dawn.<\/p>\n

Let’s see how that goes.<\/p>\n

I’ll keep you posted.<\/p>\n
