Hi,

I feel like I eat so much more than everyone, but maybe I just have more variety?

Anyhow, here's my eats for the day.  I think I was hungrier today because I ate so little with my irritated Sleevie yesterday.

1 egg w/ .5 oz cheese
1/2 cup cottage cheese
protein pudding - it was a free sample with bariatric vitamins.  I think it was Wonderslim.  YUCK. Like Bodytech Dutch Chocolate Protein pudding 100% better.
macadamia nuts
salmon
green beans w/slivered almonds

boy, this is timely! I'd been hearing about and thinking about trying shirataki for years, and I just bought some last weekend! I tried them yesterday---HungryGirl has a new show on the cooking channel I watch and she raves about them. Well, I bought the fettucinne-like ones, they are tofu shirataki. I first drained and rinsed them well, and then I nuked them in the microwave for 2 minutes (some people boil them for 2-3 mins). I put them in a sauce that I use for tuna noodle casserole. I have to say, the texture got me. There is no strange taste, but the rubbery/slimey/firm texture was too much for my senses. I could only manage 2.5 bites before I tossed them. I mentioned this to a friend and he said that he enjoys them stir fried with veggies, shrimp (or other protein) and asian-style sauces. I figure I will give them one more try. I'm thinking that if texture is an issue for you (as it is for me), they may be a no go...but worth the try! BTW, my local supermarket (ShopRite) carries them in the refrigerated produce section.
