Week Nine: Catching Along

This past week I have had a lot of homework which equals a lot a stress. With all of this stress, I still managed to stay on my diet. I had seafood two out seven days this week which is a requirement of this diet. I had vegetables all seven days which is also a another requirement. I had fruit for at least a day, so I need to increase my fruit intake. I had grain and dairy all seven days which is okay with the diet restrictions. The only problem I had this week was the snacks in between meals. When I get home from school, I am starving, and want a snack. Usually I have two bagels which fill me up. Since  I am full, I eat a average portion of dinner. Since I am full after dinner, when I wake up the next morning I am still full from the night before, so I eat a small breakfast. Then I am hungry at lunch, and then the cycle repeats itself daily. I did not have this problem before the diet, so I suspect this could be a side effect caused by me. Next week, I will continue my diet, and research some healthy light snacks that can be improved by my diet.
