diet

I love being on a diet.

No truly I do, I'm not just trying to get your attention with sarcasm. Diets are great!

I love the oppurtunity to get creative within the boundries of good health to enjoy what I eat, to try new foods and adapt old ones.

I'm not talking about fad diets, here today, forgotten tomorrow. I'm talking about good old fashioned what I SHOULD be eating, but because of, oh whatever it was that derailed me, I let my standards slip. A few hot chips here, a coke there, a pizza because I was too busy to cook properly, and before you know it I have a taste for fat and sugar again.

But give me a couple weeks eating properly and you get what happening to me now.

Hot chips, I love them (when I'm not behaving myself) today I had one of Liams. It tasted foul. I could taste the oil, no amount of tomato sauce could get rid of that fatty taste in my mouth. I went to the supermarket and had an all out binge session buying.....

vegetables

yes you saw right, vegetables

mushrooms, broccoli, onions, parsley, pumpkin, carrots, spinach and tomato, some char-grilled capsicum all lightly cooked in a white wine and faux cream (ultralight phildelphia cream cheese) sauce, served over pasta and seasoned with a generous grind of pepper.

mmmmmm

Photos? Don't be silly, I was too hungry to wait around taking snaps while my dinner was getting cold.
