Sunday thread (6/20)

thanks everyone for the SB info. It's actually not too much to have two separate programs in the house - being as how I've been doing CAD for awhile. During the week, we have separate breakfasts and lunches, which leaves dinners during the week, and weekends to cope with.

If we both are on a whole-foods, refined grain/sugar restricted diet, it would make weekends so much easier!

With summer here, I'm really having a good time with salads, including a three-bean salad for the RM. It seems that my appetite just dries up. green salad plus 3-bean salad, plus something from the grill, possible some (limited) fresh fruit for dessert - that is plenty for both of us.

And I've been having sparkly water (plain) over ice, w/ a twist of lemon or lime, for my evening drink, instead of wine or beer. The fizziness makes it special. I even made some herbal tea (very strong) and used it as a "flavoring/coloring" stuff.

We are going out tonight, to a cuban place - I'm thinking a large salad might be my best bet.

have a great day, everyone!

Oh man do I ever miss eating Cuban food. Enjoy it for me too. :lol:

Cheers!

I've been wondering what Cuban food might entail, even for a RM, it could be tough. But I figure I can get a grilled something with beans on the side, or a large salad w/ grilled stuff.

I'll ignore the rice - easy for me, I'm not too keen on rice. It was the easiest thing in the world for me to stop eating rice, with this WOE, and I'll eat darn near anything.

I just had my tuna salad on a big pile of lettuce, w/ low carb dressing.

I would have a cuban steak with black beans. Oh how Yummy!

With salad of course with veggies in it.

For dessert some Flan would be so great. :)

hopefully, this restaurant hasn't modified it's menu for the vegetarian tastes around here - steak sounds pretty darn good to me!
