Hunger Pains

It's quite interesting, really. Some days I feel FAMISHED (at least my tongue does...my stomach feels full), and other days I'm fine (aka "normal").

For example, yesterday, I ate oatmeal for breakfast, then 2 hours later was STARVING! I didn't want to eat my lunch yet, so I ate a small bag of BBQ chips that Tim had given me the day before. It did not satisfy me. I was still hungry! Well, at least my tongue was... my stomach felt fine, or even full! But my mouth just craved something...

I held out for a couple more hours until just before noon, then scarfed down my lunch (oops! this time, lunch actually DID give me some heartburn!) I got half-way through my lunch when my stomach REALLY felt full (my lunch didn't taste THAT good), but my mouth was still "hungry" for something else. I scavengered around the office for a little while looking for candy, or something. Nothing. Again, I wasn't HUNGRY, but I just craved...carby sweets! Pop Tarts, Donuts, Cookies...that was all I could think of.

So last night after attending a Scottish Festival, we stopped by the grocery store and picked up a donut, a box of strawberry PopTarts, and a small carton of chocolate ice-cream. I ate the donut on the way home. Then ate a couple spoonfuls of ice-cream once we got home.

These are pics from the festival/concert thing...

And today? Totally fine! Ate a waffle for breakfast. Ate one PopTart a couple hours laters. Ate half a sandwich for lunch. Eating a pomello right now (a couple hours after lunch). Not craving anything. Not "starving" for anything. Feeling very comfortable right now. :)

Wierd...
