Okay, here's the food plan.

Between 4 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. I've eaten
-A chai/coffee/low-fat milk - 3 mugs over the hours.
-Plain peanut butter (nothing added except cinnamon I sprinkle on it) on grain bread.
-Mashed banana with goat milk yogurt, paleo coconut granola sprinkled on top.
-Some almonds and a couple of dates.
-A cheese & 2 eggs omelet.

As for the rest of the day, I'll be eating
-a mashed yam with a bit of butter .
-Lentil soup with 5 whole grain crackers.
-1/2 a Honeycrisp apple.
-Probably some coffee with soy milk.

-Plenty of water...I love water & drink a lot of it.

I find that I am ravenously hungry in the earlier part of the day. It's an awful feeling, like I'm starving. Reminds me of the hunger during the latter months of pregnancy. I attribute the extreme hunger to antipsychotic med.

Exercise
I have an extremely painful achilles tendon injury on my right ankle. I'm in physical therapy for it (first time in pool Tuesday, yay!). For the time being I have to limit my exercise to limping through daily chores (which does involve going up and down stairs several times/day, as I live upstairs) and yoga stretches, along with grip toning for my wrists and forarms.

Everything except the yam because I was full. I'm already seeing a pattern that tells me I eat a lot more during the morning hours when I'm med hungover than later in the day.
