I haven't received my nutritional pack yet so nothing to say really about future meals. I have however, noticed a pattern emerging in my diet. For the past two days I have gone all day at work with the bare necessity of food, as in, a normal diet. And then, after my dinner (evening meal) I get the most incredible desire for chocolate, or something sweet, literally minutes after my main meal. I can't think why this would be the case. Yesterday it was mini bounty bars and today it was two kitkats and a chocolate donut. Then I haven't eaten anything for the rest of the night. I'm told that Chromium supplements can help ease the sugar cravings, so I'll wait until I know how much I'm meant to be taking.
I've tried to cut down on the amount of diet drinks I'm having. I'm cutting down to one can a day. It worked yesterday, but tonight I've got one beside me for my night drink. I guess I eat all that chocolate, then about now I'm feeling a bit sick, and the diet drink makes me feel better - I've no idea if that's pyschological or physiological.
One last thing to note, it was suggested to me, that if I need a fizzy drink then I should find one in which Xylitol is the sweetener and not aspartame. I haven't found one yet! Aspartame could potentially cancel out the hormone medication I am taking... I have found many drinks with sucralose, but I haven't quite figured yet whether this is OK or not. Something for me to investigate.

You know you do realize your not overweight right? Why not just enjoy life and eat what you want ;-) Brother David,
Because, I feel tired and sluggish with headache, and stomach aches.
