What did you eat today?
degree's and 10 min later it was at
140. This will change your mind
about pork forever. As good as
rare roast beef.

Not today, I have plans on going to a local restaurant where the owners are from Buffalo. I will probably have a beef on weck and some chicken wings.

You are stealing my meal at that place😂

Never had weck before, is it tasty?
Quote: EvenBobNever had weck before, is it tasty?
I like kummelweck rolls because of the salt. If I'm going to eat some bread can't go wrong with that choice.
Quote: EvenBobNever had weck before, is it tasty?
It is a harder roll with a salt crust on it. I really like it for things like french dips.
Quote: EvenBobCalling it hamburger meat is redundant.
Like saying 'tuna fish' or 'written down'.
All hamburger is meat.
So me think why waste time say lot
word when few word do trick.
Don't worry Max, I'll bring some back for you.

As for what I ate today, it was whatever MoW brought me. I usually just wolf it down without noticing much. I do remember there were four halves of cookies:n, 3 sugar cookies, one a peanut butter cookie.
I also had baby onions from the food bank people. Taste is terrible and they stain the water brown. I also had my standby taste-killer: sunflower-butter.
There is always FedEx. He could stay living in his kitchen and FedEx the cabbage to you, but Meals on Wheels is far cheaper, indeed its free!Quote: SOOPOOI am considering making Bob an offer to be my personal chef.
As far as today, I took pains to take special note. It was Spaghetti with meat sauce, diced carrots and angel cake. (In reality they were actually "cubed" carrots since they lacked spots.) No information as to calories, salt or sugar content. I will TRY to make it my only meal for the day.

No, but it sure seems to help make things more bearable if you fall into each category.Quote: EvenBobDo you have to fall into both categories to live there?
Nothing since my MoW spaghetti, maybe I will finish off those bitter baby onions/challots/whatever. Or perhaps cook pasta which the quacks say is bad for me.
baked eggplant slices. All from
scratch, I even ground the pork
for the meatballs. Cooked the sauce
for an hour. Lot of work, but worth
it.
After the crickets, it was no big deal.
That was all home made, as was the best mole I ever had.
About to eat at a fancy Mex restaurant. Veggie soup, a ceviche with a bunch of fruit in it and wild boar tacos.

I buy frozen meatballs with jarred sauce. It doesn't taste great but only takes 2:30 in the microwave.

Eating is one of the few things
in life we have complete control
over. I know that when I make
something a certain way, it
will always be 100% what I
expected. It's why I hate restaurants,
you never know what crap you'll
be served. It's always a disappointment.
I eat the same thing for lunch
every day, as I've said. Sardines
and anchovies, an avocado, and
a few few pickled peperoncini.
A riot of flavors and super good
for you.
This is resulting in about 3-4 lbs. a week loss.
2 eggs, 1 slice ham, and spinach made all together.
Banana
Chicken breast, 8oz steak, or fish, asparagus spears, broccoli crowns, and carrots seasoned w/ Olive oil, turmeric, salt, and pepper. Again all made in one pan.
Bowl of cantaloupe or honeydew melon
Cup of ginger tea at night. Otherwise only water which is normal for me anyhow.
Everything except tea and water is consumed in 8 hour time period. Sometimes 10 if I'm busy.

Lose the banana and replace it
with avocado. Lose the carrots
and have cauliflower, Brussels
sprouts, cabbage or fresh green
beans instead. I also eat in an
8 hour window and fast for
16 hours. I've been doing it
for 20 years and it's just now
catching on.

and carrots)

I thought about that. Been planning to do that when I hit the wall and the weight stops coming off. I started at 260 and plan to get to 200 then reassess. Either way lifestyle changes, especially in the food department, are taking place. I am currently 233 at 6'-2".

There was supposed to be a big shortage on them and prices were going to skyrocket to 5 bucks a pop. I guess that was fake news.

Wow, you hide your weight well. I would not have assumed that you weigh over 200. I got on the scale yesterday and was surprised it read 163.4. I am usually in the upper 160's.
Ended up mixing some melted Country Crock with grated cheese as a substitute but the end result was a middling success, at best.

Any place you can eliminate sugar
in your diet is a good move. Even
a cup of melon has 13g of sugar
in it. Bananas are the worst, though.
It looks very easy so hopefully I won't screw it up. I probably will because I always doctor things and this one is definitely calling for some Cayenne pepper.

Sugar in itself isn't so bad, it's on top being potentially harmful and a risk for healthy people to wind up being unhealthy. I fast a lot unintentionally, only because I can be so distracted I ignore plenty of body signals telling me I should do things. Sometimes all I can get myself to eat is sugar after a long day with nothing to eat. Thursday morning was such a day, had apple pie, blueberry peach pie, a pistachio muffin, and 2 bottles of milk. It just happened to be I just also didn't feel like waiting for food to be cooked, so I ate these desserts. Thinking about this, I realize I'm actually not healthy. Lol. Boooom.
Goin' to print out a few pages from WOO on games and game strategies I want to re-learn.
The keto people have a good case.
The plant based people have a good case.
Not so sure about the fuitarians having a good case but some fruit can't be too bad with Jack LaLanne being a prime example.
To get fanatical will cause one to miss out on many enjoyable options.
It would be interesting to do each for a few months with lab results at the end of each period.

to eat in front of the TV on Sunday
to watch Lassie. And it was always
soup and sandwich, usually Campbells
tomato soup and a grilled cheese.
Best meal of the week.
It was cold and nasty today so I
had homemade cream of turnip
green soup and thin sliced beef
and cheese sandwiches. Bread
is keto cloud bread made with
eggs and cream cheese.
up on keto is bread. I love bread,
but 2 slices are more carbs than
I eat in a day.
Cloud bread is almost zero carbs,
it's eggs and cream cheese. I
don't know why I never thought
of making a grilled cheese
sandwich with it. It turned out
delicious and tasted just like the
real thing.

It's like when someone is gluten free and they say they found a gluten free dessert and think it is just as good. Had a coworker bring gluten free jello pretzel salad. Worst dessert ever and she claims to think it is great.
Quote: GWAEThe only people who think it turned out like the real thing are people who lie to themselves.
Absolutely wrong. White bread is almost
tasteless, as is cloud bread. All I taste on
either is the hot fried butter and the tang
of the cheese. Just what you're supposed
to taste in a grilled cheese. I used Muenster
cheese, so there was a real tang to it.

Smoked Gouda makes a nice grilled cheese.

GF pretzels are corn based and I actually think they are better.
There’s also some packaged GF cookies/brownies that are legitimately good.
But yea, while I’m sure evenbobs bread is better than processed white Wonderbread, I doubt it’s better than a crusty French baguette.

Apples and oranges. Cloud bread
only compares to white tasteless
bread. Makes good French toast
too. Bread is my downfall, I eat
too much of it and always gain
weight. I love to get a big loaf
of Italian bread, cut it in half,
hollow it out and fill with
meatballs and marinara sauce.
Kill me now..
