supposed to. I mean, I'm nursing a 9 month old and trying to eat in addition to what I'm supposed to eat on a normal phase 2 diet and I am too full! I'm drinking water w/ all of these meals as well.

This is what I've had today...It's 3:40 right now.

Breakfast:
1 cup of Kashi Go-Lean cereal w/ skim milk and blueberries

Mid-Morning:
1 Egg Muffin (from the recipe board here made w/ turkey bacon, onion, tomatoes and cheese)
cup of cafe con leche (8oz skim milk, instant coffee and splenda)

Lunch:
Several cubes of hot pepper monterrey jack cheese
3 HUGE handfulls of spinach sauteed w/ extra garlic and some olive oil

About 5-6 dried apple rings

WTH is going on? I'm normally eating a lot MORE than this, but I just don't seem hungry. Tonight I made the MExican roast in the crock pot w/ fresh brocolli and I'm serving it w/ black bean salsa and wrapped up in a FF/LC tortilla w/ sour cream.

Does this sound okay? I will snack on peppers and hummus in a little bit and maybe try some of the Reeces Peanut butter dessert stuff I made.

??? I hope this is okay, but it doesn't sound like enough food! On top of this, I can't seem to drink 4 cups of milk each day and have a yogurt and grains....ugh...
