Feed Me Seymour!

It's been another busy two days! Today I worked a whole 12 hours and had to be at work at 6:30am! Luckily I only have one more day of this and then I'm on vacation for a whole week. Yay! Along with the long hours I have to work at conventions comes a few perks. This show I'm working happened to include a private concert with 80's rock legend Foreign at Mandalay Beach along with a wide spread of food and open bar.

So all day long I was looking forward to a fun night out, came home, put on a cute sundress, was getting ready to go when - ugh, I didn't feel good. So I chugged some of my wanna-be Amazing Grass and laid down. Still didn't feel too good. I have felt like this before and narrowed it down to three things; A. I was just extremely hungry to the point where it had made my stomach upset and lose my appetite to eat, B. it was from those "signature scents" they spray in casinos, or C. I was getting the stomach flu. I was praying for not the stomach flu but the only thing I had a craving for was chicken noodle or miso soup which often is a sign of me getting sick. I had neither in the house. After scouring the kitchen cabinet I finally remembered my mom had frozen some homemade turkey broth when she was here in November. I used the broth and some rice noodles and made myself a little feel better soup.

Diagnosis: HUNGER! Now that I ate I feel 100% better. It's amazing that hunger can make you feel so horrible. I was kind of hungry all day, but there was nothing really of substance to eat so I guess I didn't end up taking in as many calories as I needed. Note to self: repack bag with healthy snacks.

Now for my EATS!

Tuesday morning I didn't really have a breakfast. I just had some coffee and snacked on some Pirate's Booty. Then around lunch time I was starving, of course. I snacked on a handful of these while I was waiting for my Jason's Deli to be delivered.

By the time my lunch got here I was starving and devoured it before even thinking about photos. My lunch was a whole wheat veggie wrap. It was quite tasty. I also had a cup of French onion soup. My sandwich also came with a side of steamed veggies - carrots, broccoli, and cauliflower but I just picked at them.

After work I was having a huge sushi craving. I went to Whole Foods and was slightly disappointed in the evenings selection. I ended up going for a rainbow roll and spicy tuna. It was not as good as the last time I had sushi at Kaizen!

Breakfast this morning was a venti skinny latte and egg white, spinach and feta wrap from Starbucks.

I had that at 7:00am so you can imagine how hungry I was when I finally got lunch at 1;30pm. I missed the free lunch by 5 mins and the food court only had open a yucky burger place so I ended up back at Border Grill ordering my ceviche platter to go.

After work I was hungry but knew I was going to the reception so held off on eating. I thought I was being wise, but ultimately I ended up getting sick!

Wow! What a difference food made. I made this soup from the frozen turkey broth and rice noodles. It hit the spot and I feel so much better now! Clearly my body was just screaming FEED ME!!!

I'm off to bed now, another early tomorrow. :-)
