Yesterday was a hungry day...not sure why, I ate the same things I've been eating all week, but I got progressively hungrier throughout the day. I was grumpy and tired all day too (well, I'm always grumpy and tired, but more so than usual!), so maybe I was just hungry as a response to that. Anyway, I managed to resist and not eat anything I shouldn't, so that's a good thing.

Aside from being hungry yesterday though, I'm concerned about what the scale's gonna say on Monday when I weigh in. I just feel like I'm eating way too much to be able to be losing any weight, particularly on the carb side. I've purposely avoided adding up the carbs I'm eating so I don't freak myself out, but that doesn't keep me from knowing that fruit and rice and potatoes are high-carb! I know they're complex carbs, but still...I guess we'll find out on Monday!
Do some research on diabetic diets. They need to concentrate on foods with a low glycemic index (foods that take a longer time to break down in your body therefore giving you more time to burn it off and keep you feeling fuller longer to boot!) Also, try to eat less for breakfast and have a snack between breakfast and lunch (such as that banana or a granola bar).
