gracedpalmerA bit ago, I started charting calorie intake again, because I'd spontaneously gained weight. Turned out to be hormonal (net loss in under a week - 6.5 lbs as of this morning), but I'm continuing for curiosity's sake. Today I accidentally ate only about 1250 before 9 pm, which is not a good thing. My body already goes into starvation mode easily, and its basic drive seems to be to add more fat around the pelvis to insulate the precious uterus.
The solution - giant veganish* cinnamon cookie. If I eat half of it, I get to about 1550. If I eat all of it, I get to 1850. Both a little low, but less starvationy. I love problems that get solved with cookies.
*it's hard to make even a giant cookie using eggs, because subdividing eggs is a pain. So, flax. There's a little butter in this, though.
