So stuffed!

Gosh! I'm just so stuffed, even though I'm only eating 1200 cals/day. I didn't even quite make it to 1200 today. I think it's all the fiber. I just don't get hungry. It's amazing. I actually wish I would get more hungry. I didn't do as well today with my vitamins and minerals as I did over the weekend because I'm back at school and I'm not able to do my own cooking. Basically, I eat from the cafeteria or eat raw fruits and veggies in my room. The hardest for me is vitamin E. I can never seem to get enough of it. I'm probably not eating enough fat. Well, I'll keep on playing with it and experimenting!

I told my mom about CRON this weekend. I wasn't going to tell her. I was going to wait and see if she would notice, but I was so excited I couldn't help it. She was actually really interested and wanted me to show her some articles on it. I also downloaded Cron-o-Meter on her computer.

I find that 2 tbsp and 1 tsp of almond butter a day fulfills my vit e requirements in a very tasty way. Kiwis and pumpkin are also high in e.

You and I are the same height, so I'll be interested to read what caloric intake you level off with. I'm at 1850 cals/day at the moment- and still lose weight. My advice is not to go to low if you want to avoid too many 'slip ups'.

Okay, good luck, I look forward to read about your CRON journey! :-)

Hi Brianna...

I get my E from spinach and 20g almonds helps as well. I drink a fortified soya milk that has E in too, along with B12 (which as a vegetarian I find tricky to get). And as Hazel says, pumpkin (or butternut squash, for me mostly) is really good for E.

You sound like you're doing really well! :-)
