I try to save portions of my meals so I always have something to eat when my will power allows. Maybe because I dreamt of my boys, I go for something which is special in the sense that if I were to prepare something for my kids with so little available then it would be a peanut butter and jelly sandwich extraordinaire. I set aside a pad of butter from a regular meal and hold onto the two packets of peanut butter when they come with breakfast. I mix those with two and a half tablespoons of protein powder. Currently, the chocolate and peanut butter combination is creating a peanut butter cup sort of experience, but it tastes a little "off." I even went with some apple jelly tonight/this morning, which compliments it well. The protein powder makes such a big difference in controlling hunger. Dinner last night only had a bite and a half of meat. There isn't anything for my stomach to work on so it empties too fast. Protein portions I try to space five hours apart for complete digestion and in between I set aside fruits, vegetables, and bread as snack options. It seems to work best to ration my meals in half to really stretch out what is provided. I also trade the desserts for food that will sit in my stomach longer.
Belly-aching, body-aching, heart-aching. My usual journal themes. I should write more when things bother me less. The journal isn't new. I kept one during my time in jail as well. Basically to account for all the rotten things they did to me. I didn't choose to have long hair. They refused me a hair cut for over a year. I thought I would let a friend of mine cut it when I went home but... I didn't go home. Not yet. Okay, my back says I am done for now.
