I didn’t take many notes today about my experiences, but
today was easier than yesterday. I do think that eating a healthy, filling
breakfast combats many issues for me. It prevents me from overeating and I also feel full for a long time, which eliminates cravings.
Tuesday’s meals:
Breakfast
English Muffin with Peanut Butter (this kept me full longer –
I may make this a regular staple)
Banana
Fridge oatmeal topped with strawberries
Lunch
Monday’s dinner leftovers (rice, beans, ground turkey,
tomatoes, lettuce, sour cream, cheese)
Dinner
Spaghetti with ground turkey meat sauce (~$4.90 for meal, 4
servings [leftovers for lunch])

The real excitement today is that we got more chickens! It
has been a few years since we raised chickens from chicks.
I picked up 5 ISA Brown pullets, an Amberlink, and another Silkie
from Tractor Supply (last two were straight run). I couldn’t help myself, the Silkies were just too cute and
they had nice feathering on their legs.
I told Jay before I went that I heard
they had straight run bantams, but not to worry, because they were probably Silkies
and I didn’t want another one of those. Maybe this time we’ll end up with two
hens out of our straight run purchases instead of two roosters. I think that
eventually I’d like to transition our flock to a RIR rooster and hens that will
hatch out sexlink chicks (chicks that you can easily tell male from female at
hatching).
