Under stress, both physical and mental I either don't eat or eat the wrong stuff after it passes. So I can lose weight or gain it. My favourite wrong foods are Sausages by themselves, (too many) dark chocolate mars bars, cheese, Ice cream bars or fudgesicle, potato chips, cereal with too much sugar. Okay stuff is fresh asparagus, fruit, cauliflower with cheese sauce.
Bad stuff is a second glass of wine, but it is so good.
So I try to keep meals in the freezer for physical stress days. Mental stress days I drink Lemon Balm tea about an hour before I need to eat.
I usually have one piece of toast a day so one more in the evening is okay.
Since right now I'm on my own for a while I don't have time for things like lasagne, cabbage rolls or stuffed peppers. They take too much time and right now time is what I'm short of.
No rain for the next week. Hot hot hot. Weeds will grow like crazy.
I have to go get gas for the little tractor so I can mow. They sell fudgesicles also and I have an account there. One won't hurt. Today is going to be a long day so I think me and the cats will have cereal for supper. Maybe rice pudding. Easy stuff.
