Must eat...

For the last couple of weeks my appetite has been really mild. And when I wanted to eat, it was fruit or salad or vegetables...with an occasional trip to Wendy's that sat like a lead weight in my tummy. But sweet Mary, since yesterday I've been a ceaseless eating machine. I had my peanut butter toast this morning with an egg white and a cappuccino. Until today, that would have held me until a light snack of fruit or a light lunch that I had to make myself eat.

But today, I was starving at 11am! I wanted a plate of everything. We sat outside at a lovely Father's Day Brunch at the little bistro down the street. I ate all my food - toast, eggs, potatoes and half of Donavon's pancake. And I was not unhappily full. I think we're going through a growth spurt.

Update: After a 2pm ice cream I slept for 2.5 hours. I woke up hungry. I made it until 6:30 and my stomach was GROWLING. We had dinner at Bertucci's and you know, I ate a lot and was only pleasantly full. It's 9:00 right now and if a Frosty were in front of me, I could eat it. As enjoyable as this bulking stage is, I really hope it doesn't last.
