Whatcha eating today VSGers? Sunday...
Happy Easter to everyone!! Today I am rejoicing and relaxing. So last night I saw Prince...OMG....enough said!! Today I woke up went for a walk with Billy Dee and I'm just vegging. I haven't eaten and barely drank anything thus far. Right now I'm nursing a bottle of water, some crystal light with benefiber and leftover coffee. Not sure if I will LEAVE the house today I'm exhausted...
Ok let me tell you about my dinner. If you haven't visited Eggface's Blog you are truly doing yourself I disservice. I have tried MANY of her recipes and I've NEVER been dissappointed and tonight was not different. So let me just say I didn't make it EXACTLY like her's but it was her recipe in spirit. It tasted so MUCH like a chicken noodle casserole WITHOUT the noodles. I was shocked and so was my girlfriend who had some. NEXT time I'll add onions since I LOVE me some onions!!

Shannon I'm RIGHT there with you. Cauliflower hasn't been one of my BIG favorites. About 2 weeks ago I found a Chicken Curry recipe on www.allrecipes.com and it used cauliflower (and not potatoes) so according to all the comments they used potatoes. I made it once with potatoes and carrots and ENJOYED eating those potatoes way to much so then I made it with cauliflower and it DAWNED on me that perhaps the original maker had a "reason" for using cauliflower. Anyway it was JUST as good. Then I remembered eggface had a cauliflower casserole and low and behold it was really good and reminded me so much of tuna noodles casserole.
Because of my choice to way limit processed carbs in my life I haven't had a tuna noodle casserole in YEARS. I will be making one NOW that I see how this turned out.
Hmmm never had her canolis MUST give them a try =)

Yea.. My appetite's been crazy low the past couple of weeks now, it's gotten less & less as each week goes by. I was able to ear 1/4 cup of soup or curry, some hummus or cucumber slices, chicken or tuna salad n stuff before.. These past 2 wks or so, it's really dwindled down to a couple of protein shakes, a few nuts (almonds or peanuts - a handful fills me up), coffee, tea, hot cumin water (since I'm Freezing all the time!) and some days a 1/4 cup of thin spicy broth w/lots of curry powder for flavor - sometimes I cut a small piece of the Gorton's grilled Tilapia fillet (like 1/2 of one fillet) cut into small pieces into the curry soup (gives me something to chew on).. But I only do this somedays, otherwise mostly just shakes & liquids. I think w/this mixing up of menu & diet, my restriction's gotten stronger too , guess i'll just take good advg of this phase to lose as much as possible in the honeymoon period
