I needed a bigger breakfast, I was so hungry mid-morning I made some less than stellar choices.  It’s crazy how hungry you can get sitting on your butt all day; when I’m active and busy I’m satisfied with much less food.

That’s said, I’ll never apologize for popcorn.

Sprinkled with Kernel Season’s Sour Cream and Onion.

And then I had this.

“This” would be a serving of pretzels with 2T of semi-sweet chocolate chips melted on top.

Eaten with chopsticks of course.

The Reese’s tree is the point at which I probably needed to just say no.

But then I brought things back around with my “real lunch,” a nice healthy salad.

Made with some very tasty components – layer of lettuce,

chopped green bell pepper,

baby corn,

1T babaganoush,

the best dressing on earth (seriously, buy this!),

and a little bit of cheddar.

All added up to a tasty dish.

I’ve got some school work to do this afternoon and I’m hoping to balance long enough to prepare dinner tonight.  I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t dreading my eventual shower, but I’ll probably try to squeeze in a bit of strength training beforehand.

Do you find your hunger increases with or inversely to your activity level?
