"Hey all! So glad I checked in...reading your comments really helped get my head in the right place for today. It&amp;#x27;s my last day in Chicago and we&amp;#x27;re going to our second Cubs game of the weekend. Nachos and hot dogs and peanuts, oh my! It hasn&amp;#x27;t been easy to eat the way I usually do, but I&amp;#x27;ve been making OK choices. Like, when John and I were starving on the Jet Blue flight out here, I chose the small bag of cashews as my free snack instead of the Terra Blue chips or cookies. Then at the first Cubs game, I had some (OK, a lot) of peanuts but then chose a pretzel with mustard for &amp;quot;lunch&amp;quot; at the ball park instead of nachos or a hot dog. Next morning at my great aunt Iris&amp;#x27;s house, we made a simple breakfast of scrambled eggs and toast for everyone. But then the pies came out. She had baked a pineapple pie, a pecan pie and a cake in anticipation of our visit! So I shared a piece of pineapple pie with John. It was very good, but I just wish I&amp;#x27;d taken a smaller slice. My stomach felt sort of heavy and full after that. Then last night John and I went to dinner at an Italian place with his mom, and I passed over the baked pastas, the cheese-stuffed manicotti, the lasagna, in favor of chicken marsala with a small side of penne and marinara. Ate about half of it and was STUFFED. It&amp;#x27;s amazing how your appetite can change over just a few weeks. But I need veggies, man. I&amp;#x27;m craving a huge pile of steamed broccoli. Dreaming of a plateful of sauteed green beans. Mmmmmmm. Tomorrow we&amp;#x27;re back in NYC and have dinner plans with a bunch of friends at this amazing Mexican joint in Brooklyn (it&amp;#x27;s my birthday!). Think everyone will imagine that I&amp;#x27;ve lost my mind if I order a big old salad? :)"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
