Well, I did try one thing yesterday - I deep fried carrots! Won't do that again. It's not that it was bad - but because sweet potatoes are better and it didn't do the carrot any favors - as a matter of fact the flavor was less than a nice pressure-cooked carrot with lemon and olive oil or butter... Had a 6 oz. glass of protein shake with it.
Then Ken stopped me about 2 today and told me to eat something so I do have one pretty picture. It is home-made Avocado-hummus. The chips seen there are also made of Hummus - and add a nice 6 grams of protein.
The last photo is my too late for dinner snack - Very thin chicken slices rolled around a wedge of dill pickle. I should have happy dreams :)
You'd think that would make me exhausted, but it doesn't - I was up before 4 and for once had my devotions and exercise done before Ken got up!
I'm eating with friends tomorrow, so it's not a worry although I hear the metabolism wants at least something every few hours - and for me that means protein and something. It is far better for me to be busy - if I am too preoccupied with food - well - these verses talk all about it:
Luke 12:22 and Then Jesus said to his disciples: “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear.
Luke 12:29 And do not set your heart on what you will eat or drink; do not worry about it.
and the Message explains it further:
Luke 12:22 He continued this subject with his disciples. “Don’t fuss about what’s on the table at mealtimes or if the clothes in your closet are in fashion.
Luke 12:29 “What I’m trying to do here is get you to relax, not be so preoccupied with getting so you can respond to God’s giving.
