Breakfast (was really hungry when I ate): Cheerios with sliced banana. Ate while reading, but trying to pay attention to hunger level. Didn't finish bowl of milk left over, since I seemed to be full enough. Thought about not reading, but since I was eating alone it seemed kind of boring (I guess my "mindfulness" has a limit).
Lunch: Husband's potato salad. It was good (except for the bits of Gorgonzola - not my favorite cheese). I was pretty hungry, and I did a reasonably good job of keeping attention on my appetite. I ate slightly past fullness, but not so much that I felt full. I also finished off my son's apple slices while we watched a movie.
Snack(s): I had a little birthday cake with the kids. This time, it tasted a little sweet and was a bit diminished compared to yesterday, but I kept at it. I was hungry when I had it; it filled me, but later on I felt peckish again and wound up finding/eating several handfuls of potato chips. After the first few bites I was more than satisfied, but the texture...
Dinner: Another iffy dinner experiment. This one was a seasoned pork loin that was pretty heavy on the seasoning. I ate some of that, again with some of the potato salad. I was hungry by then, ate to just about full, but the cake kept bugging me and I ate two servings of that in pretty quick order. Now sitting here drinking an unsweetened iced tea and trying to get rid of the sweet aftertaste. A little too full.
