So I'm really trying to be good and do what the doctor said; namely, eat more. It is by no means easy, since I continue to have absolutely no appetite. But here's what I ate today:
Breakfast:
Oatmeal with raisins
A handful of dried apricots
A milk chocolate Ghirardelli square with caramel inside (because it is NEVER too early in the day for chocolate, kids, appetite or not)
Lunch:
A bottle of vanilla-flavored Ensure (it's not just for old people anymore!)
A cup of raspberry yogurt
(OK, I didn't do so well in the lunch department. Sue me.)
Afternoon snacks:
Wild cherry sorbet + vanilla frozen yogurt (probably the best-tasting thing I had all day)
One Cheezit (which so completely repulsed me that I couldn't even remotely entertain the idea of having more—sad, because normally I like Cheezits)
Three or four chocolate animal-cracker type cookies
Dinner:
Two homemade bean-and-cheese burritos with salsa and lite sour cream
A couple very thin slices of tri-tip
Dessert:
A Chinese almond cookie
Another Ghirardelli chocolate caramel square
Hmm, when I see it all written out like that, it doesn't seem like I ate much at all. Yet right now I feel as though I've completely gorged myself.
Bleah.

"light" sour cream? Really?
A: If you're gonna have a dollop of sour cream...eat the good stuff.
Fully leaded.
B: You have NO business watching your weight or worrying about fat intake.
yikes! :) well, in my defense, i was at a friend's house and that was what was on her table.
i'm not sure why i even mentioned that it was "lite" actually. totally had nothing to do with anything! ha. oh well.
At least you ate! It's not much, no, but it sounds like at least you ate throughout the day, which is good. :)
You're right, its NEVER too early or too late for that matter, for chocolate! The other day I had 2 double chocolate milanos with my breakfast and I'm proud of it!
Hmmm...I would get dizzy spells too last year (don't know about the sweating and stuff). But I realized that liquid dinners and hardly any food during the day is NOT healthy. But it sure does melt off the pounds!

BTW, Ensure has many uses. People even use it to fatten up their 4H and FFA show animals. Bet ya didn't know that! So next time you are at a cocktail party you can throw out that little tidbit of info when someone asks you how to get their show steer to finish out, make weight, and get a good carcass grade.

oh yeah...about cheez-its...i had to extract the fat out of cheez-its in my biochem class...you will never look at one cheez-it the same way again. sad, cuz i like cheez-its too.
