Time for me to fess up…
1. I ate lunch at 10:30am. Yeah. I don’t know what to say about that, other then I ate breakfast at 7:30am and I was hungry. I don’t want to be one of those people that eats every 3 hours because I don’t want my day to revolve around food (ironic as this is a food blog, no?), but I’m pretty sure I always get hungry 3 hours after breakfast. So, I may have to change my view on that real fast.
2. Sometimes I think I like taking walks more than running. For some reason I can’t think as clearly on runs – maybe it’s because my brain is sloshing around in my big head? I dunno, all I know is when I have a lot on my mind a walk is really great.
3. I always try new bars I get right away, even if I don’t want to eat it all. I’ve been eating this Snickers protein bar since Monday (I got a bunch of these at the race expo).
Ben finds half eaten bars all the time and says, “There’s been a mouse in our bars again!”
I’m not sure if he realizes that mouse has red hair
4. I can eat cereal for breakfast and snacks every day for the rest of my life and never get sick of it. There may be a trail of cereal from the kitchen to my desk at all times. I’m not proud of that.
5. It makes me sad that I will never ever look this cute while sleeping.
6. Yesterday we had a family meeting and Vegas and I made an alliance to vote against Ben. Ben lost 2-1 that he not hog up all the covers. Sorry buddy.
7. I go to movies for the popcorn. A good movie is just an added bonus of the experience.
Now I must be off to my movie date with a friend
Question: Have anything to confess?
Valerie Ceballost says
Augh I am so glad u also wish you looked pretty while sleeping….whenever i watch movies of people who look “sexy” or “cute” while sleeping I can’t help but become extremely jealous!!! Eventhough I understand it’s completely fake and at times unattainable. Whatever man…I just want to have potty lips, gently tousled hair and not the current “open mouth with escaping druel view” or the ” my cheeks are so plump that when i sleep with my face sideways on the pillow half my face gets squished look.” sexy I know.
Confession: I wake up multiple times a night to snack on something sweet.
Confession #2- I never buy cereal because I have no portion control.
Confession #3- I hate popcorn
Allison W. says
I snack on raw carrots, celery, or sliced red/green peppers if I get hungry before lunch. Sometimes I find I’m not actually that hungry, its more of a need to crunch something because of stress or anxiety. It helps me get in some veggies with very few calories.
Amber K says
I have to eat every 3-4 hours. Four if I eat a really big meal, but about the third hour hits and I’m already thinking about what else I can eat! Hey, it’s helped me lose weight, so I won’t complain!
Ella says
Ill never be that cute when I sleep either. I sleep with my mouth wide open.
Kelly Anne says
Hahaha I completely agree about the popcorn!! My sister and I always say that!
chandra says
Confession: I still don’t really like oatmeal that much, except that it’s warm and filling on cold winter mornings, but I find eating it really boring.
I am almost always hungry by 10-10:30 (I usually have breakfast between 6:30-7:30). Typically I’ll just have a small snack to hold me over til lunch. If I don’t I end up going crazy at lunch because I want to eat my arm by that point!
Runeatrepeat says
What do you eat for snacks? I need help.
chandra says
It kind of depends on my mood (and what’s in my cupboards), but here are a few of my go-to snacks:
quick protein shake (usually just blended with water& ice, maybe half a banana), a slice of pb toast, a greek yogurt cup with a handful of cereal, veggies drizzled with salad dressing, toast & a hard boiled egg (or lunch meat, but that’s probably out for you), apple or banana & pb, granola bar if I’m lazy (I like the nature valley crispy pb ones a lot! I had one from the office vending machine today)… that’s all I’m thinking of off the top of my head, but I usually pick something with some protein & a complex carb or some good fiber-ful food, around 100-200 cals.
chandra says
Ooh, I also used to looooove eating a serving of chickpeas with some raw veggies as a snack!! I used to pack that up to take to work with me ALL the time!
emily says
Oh yes, #7 all the way….except sometimes sub in pretzel bites with the disgusting nacho “cheese” dip for popcorn!
Melissa @ TryingToHeal says
i think better when i walk vs. running too. too much bouncing going on when i’m running!
i used to be the non-3hr eater too. it fails every time…so i had lunch at 9.45 today. yep, got that right! i did have breakfast at 5.30am though…
confession: i took a nap on the clock today. shh…i was tired. it was only 10 minutes!
Runeatrepeat says
If I ate breakfast at 5:30am, I would eat lunch at 8am so you’re a trooper.
Lee says
We have these knives that are supposed to be hand washed and when my husband isn’t home, I put them in the dishwasher. Ha.
I cannot eat half a bar. I try to sometimes and inevitably, within like 10 seconds, go back for the rest.
Melissa says
OMG–I do the SAME things with the knives!! My husband is crazy about knives he got in his 20s (he’s in his 50s now) and babies them. I.do.not.
Caitlin (EatFeats) says
Oh I have to put this out there! I have been in a relationship for a long time (LONG time), but it is suddenly very important to me that the relationship be Facebook Official. Whew.
Melissa (MelissaLikesToEat) says
I, too, get hungry about 3 hours after I eat breakfast, which is usually at 7AM. I sometimes have something small to hold me over for a bit. 🙂
alison says
Confession: I don’t like movie popcorn. But I do love cereal; I could eat it all day everyday and never get tired of it.
Rae (Ravenous Rae) says
My confession: I am unable to convince myself to eat a date because they remind me of cockroaches
Lauren says
there should be no rules when it comes to when you eat or what you eat for that matter. If you want lunch at 10:30 and then cereal to follow, no one will judge you!
Christy says
I always eat every 3 hours, not because some diet told me to, I just get hangry! :p
Amanda says
I have my best thoughts while running : )
Lisa says
I think pretty clearly when I run. I suddenly get super focused.
Erin (Travel Eat Repeat) says
Hey, when you’re hungry, you’re hungry. 😉
Confession: I meant to wake up early to go to the gym this morning but refused to get out of my warm bed and go into the cold air. A day off won’t kill me! 😀
Matt says
I bought some cheese that was $23.99 a pound today.
Runeatrepeat says
That’s a gutsy move for someone who just lost their wallet.
Matt says
*Someone who just had their wallet stolen*
Runeatrepeat says
Someone WHOM just had their wallet stolen.
Jess@atasteofconfidence says
Your cat does look really cute!
I skipped my workout today, just because I didn’t feel like it.
Karyn says
1030 your time is 130pm my time. so it’s all good 🙂
