Posted Sunday, January 9, 2011 at 12:22 PM As soon as i hear my husband starting to get up, i am going to start my blueberry buckwheat pancakes for us. really excited to try them! i will probably use m fruit sweetened jams or brown rice syrup for on top. lunch will be curried lentil soup with toasted pumpernickle bread with avacado and tomato. dinner will be stir fry and brown rice. i am going to do lots of prepping for the new week today. i found mysel caught off gaurd alot this past week, and ate a few things that i should not have. i think the worst was east indian food take out...veg samosas and fritatas. i didn`t ask about vegan options..and it was either the spice or any dairy added ...but my belly was still hurting 24 hours AFTER! so needless to say...i wont be doing THAT again! 3 days a week i have to bring breakfast and lunch with me to work, and the other 2 days, lunch and dinner. so i have to really focus on getting it all ready the night before..and doing what i can today to help. tuesdays and thrusdays are the hardest. these are the lucnh and dinner days. i finish work at 6, and go straight to the gym for 2 hours while my husband has his karate class. so i need to plan to eat half my dinner while im closing so i am not starving while working out and then half when i get home. these days mess me up! but i think i will find a routine that will work...eventualy. any suggestions or tips? he that takes medicine and neglects diet, wastes the skill of the physicion

Just cooked the curried lentil soup for the first time and it was great so I froze the rest in small containers. I froze the leftover buckwheat blueberry pancakes too. I was thinking that some of these dishes like spaghetti and marinara sauce and maybe rice can be frozen too.

pippin Joined: 09/07/10 Posts: 175	RE: What is your food today Sun Jan 9th? Posted Sunday, January 9, 2011 at 2:16 PM I had breakfast brown rice with raisins and apricots, soy milk and a touch of maple syrup. It was a first for me and I loved it. A definite keeper. Lunch was steamed broccoli and cauliflower with mashed potatoes made with soy milk. Sadly, I cannot be controlled around mashed potatoes and I ate too much. Fortunately they were just potatoes and not full of milk and butter. I may do the simple marinara and pasta for dinner tonight. But I may change my mind and just do a simple salad with beans and grains and veggies.

But if you are eating WAY to much.. then there are some things i have tried One is to eat something with them.. If i am hungry and want chips.. then i dip them in hummuas... or i add a piece of fruit. If i am not hungry and want chips, i take a small bowl so i don't overdue it. Also if i am not hungry and want to eat, i find something to do with my hands so i can't eat. like needlework.. or the computer typing.. whatever. keep busy and off the couch... i love a snack with nighttime tv.. but also if i go to bed hungry, i don't sleep well. If i can get out of the habit of eating at night.. then i don't crave it so much.. cycles of life.. THat pretty much works for me most of the time. Maybe you can find something out of that to help? Cynthia

One thing you might try if you like white potatoes is to mix them 50/50 with sweet potatoes.. at least that way they are not ALL white.. BTW it is delious! I like to leave mashed potatoes with small pieces.. lumpy potatoes... cynthia

Posted Sunday, January 9, 2011 at 6:21 PM I feel like I ate a ton today - and I can't really figure out why? Maybe it's the pasta or the fact that most of the day was spent being a lazy bum? Haha. I still came in around 1400 calories though, so it can't be as bad as I think. LOL Breakfast: vegan frozen waffles with a blueberry/agave/maple syrup topping. Tea and an orange Lunch: veggie burger with leftover bean dip and tortillas Snack: ambrosia Dinner: spaghetti with simple marinara sauce and a side salad. http://vegamorphosis.blogspot.com/2011/01/21-day-vegan-kickstart-day-7.html Check out my blog as I do the 21-Day Vegan Kickstart! http://vegamorphosis.blogspot.com www
