What did you eat today?

[shootingstar]

B: slice of bread with cheese. banana. Tea with milk
S. apple danish and coffee. OK bad. And didn't even cycle today.
snack: small slice of brie cheese.
Tangerine
Supper: sauteed red pepper, beet greens and gai lan. (below is only beet greens, pic from another day.) over pasta. With steamed salmon fillet on side with fresh ginger root, green onion and garlic. There's only 1/2 tsp. of soy sauce and 1/8 tsp. of oil, but steam condensing into water, makes it look like alot of soy sauce....but it's watered down abit.

The fish you place in a pot of water about 1 inch deep or more. Boil water and bring down heat to medium. Steam cooks fish. This piece took about 15 min. or less.

Finished meal with grapes and tea with milk.

B: bowl of cereal with 1% milk
L: Half a PB&J and an apple. I should had more...
Between-class caffeine boost: peppermint latte from Starbucks
D: spaghetti tossed with a quarter of an onion (sliced!), two chopped roma tomatoes, Italian sausage, spinach, garlic and parsley. And there are leftovers!
A small bowl of cereal and a mint Milano cookie for dessert.
And there is likely to be a cup of tea or coffee tonight. (DBF is studying for an exam...)

[Owlie]

B: Cereal
L: missed it.
S: pumpkin spice latte...which sadly tasted like someone had cleaned out a still in a chem lab and mixed the resulting goo with some water and sugar. Most of a Pay Day.
D: Grab bag night ("what can I make with what I have in the fridge?"): It ended up being a sort of chicken curry with basmati rice and wilted spinach. Served with a large glass of cold water with a squirt of lime juice. Mint milanos for dessert.

I was moaning in pain in bed last night and today I'm eating NOTHING but fruits and veggies. I don't know why I did that, but boy, am I paying for it.

[tulip]

I had tea for breakfast and that's all. I just wasn't feeling like eating this morning. I had a black bean and rice burrito for lunch with some beef, tomatoes, green salsa, and guacamole. I also had a Coke. I'm not proud, but it did taste mighty fine.

At 3pm I'm scheduled to have an apple.

Tonight I'll have some leftover chicken with potatoes and carrots that I cooked up last night. I think I'll have a salad, too. And since there's still ice cream in the freezer, I'll likely have a bit of that as well.

So Far today:

Breakfast: English muffin with peanut butter; cup of coffee
a couple hours of tennis
Lunch: Bowl of my homemade ham and split pea soup

But, I'm really hungry today; so I'm not sure how good I'm going to be the rest of the day?

I'm cooking up a big piece of london broil to make into burritos tonight. Hope I can make it with just a small snack till dinner; I have 2 more hours of tennis to play this evening.

I managed to hold myself to two handfuls of walnuts day before yesterday for a SNACK and had my quite large taco (beef, cheese, salsa, tomatoes, lettuce) for dinner with rice and whole pinto beans

YESTERDAY:
Breakfast: carrot cake muffin with cream cheese frosting; coffee and orange juice
LUNCH - 3/4s of a large chicken burrito with enchilada sauce; water
DINNER - Two hours of tennis; two glasses of wine and some rice chips/pretzels (yes, I was very very bad!) But the socalization was really fun.

[shootingstar]

Really do have not-so-good meals. Anyway:

B- oatmeal with milk, tea with milk, tangerine
Snack/Lunch -coffee with milk, a..apricot danish
Snack- sourdough bread slice with small slice of brie

Supper- Chinese restaurant large seafood soup with light noodles, mushroom and wood ear fungus. (This is just part of the tree mushroom/fungus family. To me, there's not much taste. It's a textural thing which we had back in childhood also.)
Premium jasimine dragon well tea..this is expensive stuff @ $90.00 /lb. I only have it in teapot @$4.00. smells like a flowering jasmine bush. Soooooo soooothing.
Green tea ice cream.

Cycled homeward...like a happy, bloated fishbowl rolling out into the night sea. But 3 hrs. later ..just fine.

Tomorrow must amp up on veggie.

[rubywagon]

Breakfast: Toast with peanut butter and black coffee
Snack: Banana
Lunch: Cabbage and Quorn "chicken"

[deeaimond]

B: half a cinnamon raisin bagel and plain black coffee
L: fried rice (brown rice, salmon, corn, green beans)
S: chocolate ice cream w peanuts... 1/2 cup
S: white fungus dessert (a sweet chinese dessert soup i cooked over a charcoal fire, it does not sound as gross as u imagine, the white fungus is just a mushroom variety thats white and crunchy, like wood ear fungus, its cooked with barley, red dates and honey dates, dried longans, some rock sugar)
D: rice with bittergourd, spinach, fried liver, and chinese herbal soup...

Today's Sunday so i get to cook all day!!

i look at what some of you eat... so little!!! how??!!!

edit: I just ate the other half of that bagel. I have yet to have that dinner but i want to go for a run first...and i'm hungry, so bagel, and then run and then come back for dinner. I have a weight loss goal to attain!! (but i didn't sign up for the weight loss challenge coz i never keep to it... sigh...)

[shootingstar]

Deeiamond: One day will try the white fungus dessert. Presumably there is considerable sugar or honey in it since the fungus is pretty neutral by itself.

Fu gwa (bittergourd) I had 2 yrs. ago or so. Tastes good if properly stir-fried with beef or chicken, shitake mushrooms. Very high in a particular nutrient that some medical researchers are looking into extracting/examining possible use for drug therapy. My mother prepared it several times annually.
