I can tolerate a small salad, but I can't do the big ones...I'll just get sick of eating it after a few minutes and end up throwing the rest out. I do like broccoli, though. As for the eating often thing...how often am I supposed to eat? I sit and answer phones all day in front of a computer. I can get away with some snacking at my desk, but I can't be constantly getting up to fix something to eat every two hours.
Today, I had some chicken and a small salad, and snacked on some almonds and peanut butter & crackers later. And I didn't have the problem that I was having last week, which leads me to think I really wasn't eating enough protein. I came home and had a cucumber sandwich.
What are pepperoncinis? And I've never had avacado. I don't think they eat them in the South. 
Well, that was just an experiment. Because I do like eggplant parmesan. But eggplant burgers? No. I won't be having that again.  |
wheat bread is good, but it's still not protein. and since you had a bagel, it's still going to be higher in carbs than normal wheat bread because bagels are so dense. anyway, i'm not saying it'a bad, i'm just saying if you pair it with protein, you won't get fatigued. you've never had avocado?!
so that means you've never had guacamole? damn. a life without guac ... i can't imagine it!
as for how often to eat... i eat every three to four hours, about 300 calories a pop. how long are your shifts at work? do you get a lunch break? i usually eat twice while i'm at work, and since they're smaller meals, it really doesn't take away from doing my job.
