Is it okay i ate like this?!
Question: Is it okay i ate like this?
Bf: A bowl of honey bunches of oats w/ unsweetened almond milk
A glass of v8 juice
& a large banana w/ cinnamon
At 1 pm
I got really bored and decided to eat lunch.
I ate 1 can of tuna made w/ miracle whip.
I told myself nothing else but then i still wanted to eat something, so i grabbed a slice of whole wheat bread than i still wanted to eat something even though i was full! so i told myself if i do so, that i just wont have a snack before dinner like i usually do.
Since than i just had gatorade at 3:15. just to keep my metabolism going and get my fluids. (im also recovering from being sick so i'm trying to make sure i replenish my body w/ gatorade)
Anyways is it okay that i ate my meals within 2 hours?
Answers:
Yes, it was ok
