The chips thing is real. I found a half eaten sleeve of crackers in my desk drawer that I don't even remember opening.
Biggest surprise this week on your journey?
Portion sizes sneaking down without me noticing has been my version of that. I ordered my usual plate at a Tex-Mex place here in Houston and got about halfway before I was done.
The half plate thing snuck up on me too, I ordered my usual at a Thai place and ended up boxing most of it. Turns out the leftovers made a better lunch than the original meal ever did.
The half portion thing snuck up on me too, I ordered my usual at a pho place and couldn't finish it. Weirdly the broth was the part I filled up on.
the surprise for me was grocery bills going down, not up. I buy way less food now and half of it turns into tomorrow's lunch
What surprised me was losing the urge to graze while cooking dinner. I used to pick at the pan the whole time and now i just wait til it's on the plate. No idea why that flipped
Restaurant leftovers got weird for me too, but in the opposite direction. I used to clean my plate without thinking and now I sit there staring at half a burrito wondering who I'm saving it for
