Tulip - You're the first person I've "met" who uses stevia! I want to try it out but can't figure out what to buy...any tips??

I used to grow it and dry it myself, but then I moved and have not restarted growing it. Maybe next summer.

I found some packets in the sugar section of the grocery store. Called Stevia In The Raw. Same folks as Sugar In The Raw. Smallish green box with packets. Not too bad in my tea and cereal. I have not bought it in bulk for baking, though.

I'll have to take a look for it, thanks!

I haven't run in a week and only cycled once. (planned break from training) I feel gross. Perhaps it has to do with eating 2 hot dogs, 1 cheesburger and fries, 2 Haagen-Dazs ice cream bars (dark chocolate), 1 creme brulee, 1 margarita and 2 glasses of wine, and oh, beer after my century.

Mind you this has been eaten over a week, but my stomach is protesting big time..too bad stomach and mouth cannot agree! And the cheesburger and fries were from McDonald's (gasp) - then I saw this video about a woman carrying around a cheesburger and fries from McDonald's for many years (no mold, barely any decomposition)- I'll have to find it and post it....

Think I'll make rice and beans for dinner...

Saturday:

B: Eggs scrambled with peppers, mushrooms, broccoli, onions, zucchini, scallions & cheddar. Cantaloupe.
S: Vegan scone & soy latte from Peet's coffee
L & D (3pm, so it served as both): assorted sashimi, rice, agedashi tofu, saba shioyaki (grilled salted mackeral), miso soup.
Waaaaay too much food at this meal, considering the only thing that got exercised was my credit card while shopping for a new dress for a special occasion.

Sunday:
B: 10 grain hot cereal. Cantaloupe.
S: 1/2 fruit/nut bar
Ride food (35 mile bike ride): Clif Bar
Lunch: An enormous meat, cheese & veggie calzone. It was enough for 2 people, but I ate it all nonetheless. I felt a little sick after.

You ever have one of those meals when you *know* you should stop, but you just can't help yourself? That was this meal.
D: A whole lotta grapes picked fresh from the vine. I ate them as I picked them.

Before bed snack - Blackberry cobbler with vanilla ice cream. Boy oh boy, was this the capper to a total food day disaster, or what?! The blackberries were *also* fresh picked, and Jeff simply had to make cobbler. I have no willpower around Jeff's homemade cobblers!!

Today:
Pre-run fuel: yogurt
Run fuel (12 miles, 2hr 10min) - 3 Gu Roctane
B: Apple Cinnamon hot cereal. Grapes. Pear.
S: Plain nonfat yogurt with 1 tsp jam. Coffee with chocolate soy milk.
L: Flatout wrap with 2 oz. turkey
Planned afternoon snack: Pear
Planned dinner: Tofu with sauteed Swiss Chard. Steamed broccoli & cauliflower. Green salad.

After the weekend of overeating I just had, today is shaping up much better!

I'm such a bad influence!

OK, for me today:
B: french toast (whole grain organic bread, 1.5 fresh eggs, a little goats milk, sugar free syrup)
S: coffee w/ goats milk & handful (15) of pretzel nuggets
L: left over veggie pizza and a small bowl of blackberries
S: grapes, most likely
D: grilled salmon, roasted beets, baked acorn squash & steamed broccoli
S: probably a zucchini muffin (assuming I get around to baking them like I hope)

No you're not. Without your influence, I wouldn't have that pretty new dress!

Besides, I'm a firm believer we have to take responsiblity for our own eating habits. I know I control my own destiny. The only person making me overeat was me.

Ooh, now *there's* a good idea! Fresh from your garden to my plate. Seems to be a recurring theme of the past couple of weeks!

BTW - I have 6 or 8 more jars of that plum jam in my freezer. I read you're out. Remind me to bring you another jar next week.
