for breakfast:
cinnamon raisin toast with peanut butter and fresh strawberries sprinkled with brownsugar and more cinnamon - and an iced latte of my making.

for lunch:
a salad without greens - broccoli, red cabbage, carrot - with shitake salad dressing, apple slices, and about 1.5 oz. baked tofu.

I've pretty much eaten those two meals every weekday for the last 3 weeks.

yesterday:

raspberry rainbow jamba juice

brie omelette

rice cakes

small gala apple

smartwater with some vitamin stuff I put in it


today:

some rice pasta with my own version of alfredo sauce--really turned out well!

I had 2 cups of coffee (ugh lack of sleep) 2 eggs, a protein bar after crunches.....so far....I know it's kind of sick and healthy. I had a busy night last night though....

Ok Im going to start here too. I think writing down everything i eat will help me control my portions and make me not want to eat bad stuff. Although Im a bad food-a-holic.

Breakfast: two eggo waffles with lite syrup

Snack: low fat chex mix

Lunch: two pieces of toasted wheat bread with half an avacado between.

Sorry...its only 2:30 here so thats as far as i got so far....

green mint tea
black bean burrito
Naked juice
craisins trail mix
a few handfuls of Munchos
3 squares (so far) of dark chocolate
mango/papaya/strawberries (all on sale!)

later: cinnamon tea and maybe some pinto beans and polenta. And I bet I'll eat the other 3 squares of chocolate.

I feel like I eat too much fruit and not enough vegetables. My beloved stew vegetables are no longer in season, so i don't crave them, and salads are soooo expensive (unless I make a crappy one with just iceberg, tomato, and cucumber, and, well, no).

This is so true with me too, hellotampon. I eat so much fruit, but its an effort to sneak in veggies. Even at restaurant sometimes, you order the salad and then its just iceberg lettuce and like 3 carrots. I eat veggie soup most days or spaghetti sauce with chopped veggies in it. I have to trick myself from time to time into eating them. And even though its not the best solution, I often resort to canned because its cheap and I don't have to worry about it spoiling.

Yeah it's weird because I'm not a vegetable-hater! It's just easier to eat fruit. I am spoiled so when I make salad, I need it to be all tricked out with different kinds of greens and broccoli, fresh mushrooms, avocado, sprouts, olives, etc (I don't include everything but I try to pick different things to put in it each time I shop). And it's expensive and it there's so much stuff that all goes bad at different rates and I have to lug it all with me because I'm constantly back and forth between my mom's house and my boyfriend's; school and work, etc. And I end up wasting food. Same goes for stiryfry. Things ike ginger and scallions always spoil first.

Dipping raw veggies in hummus is slightly less of a hassle to lug around, and I'll make pita sandwiches with hummus and tabouli and veggies, pizza with vegetables piled on.

I just don't feel like i have this problem in cold weather. I buy the frigging bag of "soup and stew vegetables" at the grocery store, which is cheap, chop half of it, put it in a casserole dish and throw it in the oven at work and then make the other half the next day. And it's good- I eat that until my armpits smell like sweet potato. When my body odor smells like fruit I know I'm not getting enough veggies. And right now my crotch smells like a mango. Sorry for the TMI, but it does.
