Ms Elizabeth's Journal, 08 September 2016

Today is day 2 of the worst experiment ever. It took me a day but I finally realized that my body has ADHD dingbat disorder. When you wait until you're hungry to eat then you expect to well.. still be hungry by the time you fix something to eat. Nope.. It's like I got distracted by the shiny fork because by the time I made breakfast I wouldn't have called myself hungry. Either my body is a dingbat or it's playing an awesome game of psych. I still ate breakfast.. I also discovered I don't think my hungry will ever signal that it's eaten enough if what I'm eating is bacon. Just sayin.. Didn't eat the whole plate because my husband came in from chores right about then and ate it for me.

Other interesting thingys.. when you're constantly trying to figure out if you're feeling hunger pains you notice you're thirsty a lot more. It's like being hit by the water fairy. Then you pee a lot. Then the nice friendly german guys in the glass conference room across from the womens bathroom notice you and begin to wave. They're a friendly bunch.

I'm not counting calories but it seems like I'm eating less. If I had made a plan to eat low calorie I would have been ravenous by now. But.. I'm not. I'm too busy calling my body a dingbat because it can't make up it's mind if it want's some freaking food or not. I need to remember to look around before muttering "You dingbat." It doesn't go over well when my boss walks by as I say it.

So that was today.. a game of am I or am I not with a body that can't make up it's mind. I'm beginning to wonder if any of those cavemen that I came from starved to death... if eating on hunger cues is a basic human function then my ancestors either starved or died chasing butterflies off a cliff.
