What did you eat today?

[BleeckerSt_Girl]

Gosh i don't know where you guys get your self control- more power to you... I would feel like I was starving if I only ate those little amounts of things. Are you all counting out like three almonds?
I tend to really crave lots of carbs and fats during the winter, and I gain some weight during the cold months...then I notice my body craves fruits and salads more in the warm months, and it's easier to be active and eat less fat then...I must be a bear. I could eat a whole salmon with my bare hands and teeth right now.
I have been eating daily servings of seaweed and kelp since the Japan disaster. I've always loved eating seaweed a couple times a month, and have several dried varieties in my cupboard, so I figure what the heck go for it!- now I'm eating a serving every day. i actually like eating seaweed even more than kale, for instance.
I love seaweed in warm broth with a pinch of sea salt...love the 'beach aroma' and even like the little grains of sand at the bottom... must have lots of good trace minerals.

I love seaweed; let's just say if I ate it, I would seriously lose a lot of weight, because it had an instant GI effect on me . Not good.
I eat good, healthy food and I also tend to gain in the winter, if I don't watch it. If I ate everything I craved, I estimate an extra 5-10 lbs if I didn't pay attention. The older I get, the less carbs I can eat. But, once the cycling season starts, it's less of a concern. And, I'm still very active in the winter.
Lisa, you've seen me eat... you know I'm not someone who totally restricts my food!

That doesn't look so bad. In fact, I'd probably add some fruit and call it good. Nothing wrong with a brownie once in a while.
