As my final day on the SNAP challenge draws closer, I am running out of food. It's gotten to the point that my hunger cannot be satisfied. Tonight's dinner consisted of three bowls of frozen vegetables because I was still hungry after the first one and a cup of ramen noodles. I'm almost out of nearly everything except the frozen vegetables, which may remain only because they were out of sight and tucked away in the freezer. Knowing that there is only one day left is great, but being surrounded by all the food available on campus continues to increase temptation to break the pledge.
Though I probably eat more food than is necessary, the SNAP budget is simply not enough for food for anyone. On this limited budget my stomach feels like a bottomless pit because I do not enough food to fill it.
