Well, it's lunch time, and I went to see what I could eat. Almost everything I have in my cupboard is loaded with carbs. Then I thought maybe if I found the ratio of protein that's needed to eat with carbs, maybe I could get away with eating some of the crap I have here. So I looked it up, and it's like 50g carbs to 25g protein.
And what I ate was 2 bean and cheese burritos---totally of 75 carbs and 8 protein. So me, in my infinite stupidity started looking for about 50 grams of protein to even out the meal. OMG, it's not possible. Even a steak has only about 30 grams. So now I'm starting to see this pattern.
I gave up on finding the protein to match the carbs, and just had my two burritos. It's only been about 10 minutes and my eyes are feeling like they need to close. I'm very sleepy, and I've had 2 cups of caffeinated coffee this morning.
I'll just keep record of what I see happening and maybe I'll be able to come up with something useful. You know, I thought that beans had a lot of protein, but apparently my idea of a LOT isn't on par.
Anyhow....I'm off for now. Chibi's done and the alarm is beeping for me to go get him out of the oven. (gonna try and steal a 30 minute nap too)
