state of the diet
Jan. 25th, 2007 09:12 pmThe good news is: the very delicious veg curry I've been making is quite acceptable for phase 1 of this diet. Mmm, chickpeas & cauliflower.
The bad news is: I have just used up the last of the required spice blend, which was hand-carried from Australia for me. Woe.
(It can be ordered online, but only in giant amounts. We may do it anyways. Lord only knows when it'll get here, though.)
I am less crazed than I was at the start, so I guess this insulin resistance whatever is starting to break up. I would still cheerfully stab someone for a glass of juice, or a cocktail. The latter especially, today. But I am surviving.
It is to be noted I've not had over 1500 calories a single day this week. Half of them are from fat (mostly monounsaturated; I think that's good, isn't it?). I am not sure whether to be concerned about this or not. Fact is, I'm eating a lot of veg, but when a cup of the veg works out to 40 calories--.
I oughta go eat something else; I'm only at 1150 for today and I'm hungry. Turkey sausage maybe. Though three links of that won't really put me up much higher.
