I'm not surprised by my recent weight gain. I really deviated from my eating plan in the last few weeks. Now that I'm tracking my food again, I'm even more frustrated than when I was just eating without accountability.
I'm living at home with my parents until the wedding,then Jay and I are likely to live with his folks for at least a few months. Both our mothers cook healthy, mostly whole-food meals, but they tend to be more calorie-rich than I like. (600 calories vs. 350-400). In fact, I like to have several small meals throughout the day with supper topping out around 400.
In order to budget for these bigger suppers, I'm eating a lot less during the day. But, by the time dinner is served, I'm so hungry and cranky that I eat WAY more than I even want to.
Plus there is way too much candy in the house. I'm not eating as much as I crave, but when I'm bored, I usually start grazing on M&Ms.
I guess I just really need to figure out how to get the candy out of my line of sight and when to eat my mini meals so that I'm not famished when my moms serve dinner.
Oh! At least Operation Eat More Protein for Bipolar Health is going really well. I'm keeping a closer watch on my protein intake and it's definitely improving. Still waiting to see how the increased protein affects my moods.
