vodoo princess here <

today - dim sum / steamed dumplings / mai fun / spring roll / seafood ball

wow, that sounds lovely princess...

I had:
2 pain au chocolat /guilty
1 large hunk cheddar with harissa
1 salad with medjool dates with said cheddar, olive oil, and shredded carrot
1 serving brown rice pasta with my own made-up sauce of collards, tomatoes, garlic, onions, pecorino, basil, oregano

-white tea, vitamin drink, vanilla yogourt with muesli and diced pear
-about 4 bowls of my scratch minestrone
-salad: arugula, apples, onions, sesame seeds, and a lime/rice vinegar/sesame oil dressing
-2 or 3 clemintines
-more yogourt and muesli
-rooibos with soymilk

Breakfast: a piece of candy
Lunch: Fried chicken, red beans and rice and a biscuit
Dinner: Battered onions, cheese fries and an icecream sundae
Drinks: water, tea and a few sips of Pepsi.

Needless to say I am disgusted that I ate all that in one day.

Somehow my body has started rejecting real food and I have been subsisting for the past two weeks on salmon sashimi with gallons of soy sauce (I'm getting real good at preparing it now), gyoza, mini satsumas, dill pickles and iced tea.

I think for the pickles and soy sauce I'm mostly craving the salty, briny flavour. Weird, eh?

I just ate three quarters of a Delissio Pizza. I'm worried that if these eating habits keep up I'm not going to fit into my dress for the company Christmas party on Monday. Maybe if I don't eat anything between now and Monday.... just kidding... I'll get in, somehow.

breakfast: baked oatmeal with apples and walnuts
lunch: homemade biscuits with baked mac and cheese
dinner: rice and beans (with lots of onions, green pepper, potatoes, recao, and tomato sauce - yum)
oh, and many, many glasses of ice water

Breakfast- orange, stick of baklava, tea

Lunch- 2 more small sticks of baklava and a glass of pumpkin soy milk

(How I wasn't hungry/craving food all day, I have no idea. I usually eat constantly).

Dinner- 4 pieces of leftover falafel, 2 cups of spiced cider I just made, an ounce of dark chocolate, and herbal tea

Yesterday:

Breakfast- muesli with fil (a Swedish yogourt-like product) and brown sugar, white tea with honey

Lunch- Leftover lasagna (meat lasagna with spinach and eggplant)

Snack- hot rye cereal with soymilk and lingonberry jam, rooibos tea

'Nother snack- a clementine, a butter croissant, a piece of dark chocolate, and ginseng tea

Dinner- the last of the leftover lasagna, and a salad with arugula, carrot, avo, and onion, mustard-balsamic dressing. More dark chocolate and licorice tea.


I sure do drink a lot of tea.

Here's a great weight-loss diet for that last-minute Christmas party (seething with sarcasm here)....

Breakfast: plain tea, orange juice, chicken broth

Lunch: strained, pulp-free lime juice, strawberry daquiri-flavoured Jell-O, more chicken broth

Snack: miso soup, water

Dinner: apple juice, vegetable soup (Campbell's brand with the mushy veggies & alphabet noodles), more Jell-O, water

Only reason I'm on this diet is for Crohn's, I'm in remission but I had something Friday night that definitely did NOT agree with me.... at this rate I should be back to a size 10 by Christmas. Not the way you WANT to do this, mind you.....

Breakfast: a piece of rye toast with fjällbrynt (some kind of spreadable vanilla-flavored whey product), apple with p.b., white tea with honey

Snack: hot rye cereal with lingonberry jam and soymilk

'Nother snack: banana coconut bread (finally perfected the recipe), ginseng tea

Lunch: ham sandwich with sprouts on a whole grain roll, a banana, mint tea

Din-din: green lentils with leek and garlic, leftover sweet potato casserole, banana bread, rooibos tea, whiskey

I finally started a day without my usual breakfast tacos; that is the hardest part about living in Texas.....TACOS are everywhere

What I have eaten thus far:

Breakfast ~ a small bowl of chocolate delight special K
half a cup of 1% milk

Lunch~ two pork tamales
a dreamsicle
half a can of coke
a bottle of water

Dinner~ hmmm, I have no idea what I feel like yet

I'm so jealous of the healthy eating going on in here when all I'm craving right now is Hawkins' brand Cheezies. Mind you these are the original Canadian Cheezies, and have nothing to do with Chester Cheetah, Frito-Lay, or Cheetos at all. They're a cornmeal based product shot through some kind of cannon that makes every one unique in shape and size, and then they're powdered to heck with Canadian cheddar cheese powder. Can't wait to try solid food again. Oh yeah, yesterday's menu:

Breakfast: hot tea with skim milk, glass of lime juice, glass of V-8 juice

Lunch: green tea, water, 7pcs salmon sashimi with gallons of soy sauce (ohhhhhhh it was so good!), and miso soup with tofu

Snack: (if you can call it that) iced tea

Dinner: miso soup (no tofu), salmon sashimi (5pcs), more soy sauce, Ceres pear juice, and 4oz 2% milk

Snack: chicken noodle soup with italian croutons (nice and mushy), pear juice, V-8 juice

yesteday: grande soya chai latte
banana

half a tuna and cucumber sandwich on wholemeal bread
half a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich on wholemeal bread
a handful each of green and red grapes

a quarter of my friend's iced cinnamon swirl
a satsuma
hot, candied cashew nuts from the visiting German Christmas market

cajun chicken fettucinne
a can of coke

lots of water

today: grande soya chai latte
a banana

3 x tuna maki
2 x California roll
vegetable tempura
(all with lots of soya sauce)
still water

a grande soya gingerbread latte (3 Starbucks in 2 days is obscene)
2 satsumas
some honeydew and canteloupe melon
more water

a small serving of lamb bhoona with rice
orange and pineapple juice
even more water

Posting to shame myself. Bad day for eating....

Breakfast: scrambled eggs with cheddar cheese
lunch: potato chips with french onion dip
dinner: 2 slices of cheese pizza
snack: more chips
lots of sweet tea and water

No wonder I feel dreadful.

Adnarim, sounds like a kick azz day-- although not the healthiest. Don't beat yourself up too bad. Tomorrow is another day.

Gaaaaah ladies, does anyone else loathe plain cranberry juice??? Its so tart!! But I'm forcing myself to drink it right now. WOWZA

breakfast: four silver dollar pancakes with syrup, water to drink (out of milk)
Lunch: a peanut butter sandwich and some tea (with splenda)
Dinner: baked chicken, roasted potatoes and carrots and more tea

snack: 2 pcs of sugar free candy, water, cranberry juice (bleccchhhh)

Oh I love cranberry juice! If it's a bit tart add a little tonic water or some club soda. Or if you're daring, some VODKA! (Can you tell exams are over?)

My new favorite concoction
whole wheat mac and cheese mixed with
stir fried brussel sprouts
red bell peppers
chopped ham

I've recently discovered the joy of brussel sprouts. They've gotten such a bad rap because they've most often been boiled to mush (yuck!) and drowned in butter. They're so tasty just quartered and stir fried with olive oil and garlic. They taste a lot like broccoli.

Today: green salad with spinach, carrots, cucumbers (allergic to tomatoes) with italian dressing - not too fond of the dressing though, but thought i'd give it a try! cubes of honeydew, cantaloupe, fresh pineapple, white grapes, flavored water to drink
