Breakfast was toast and tea. Snack out running errands was a Larabar. Lunch was a toasted cheese sandwich. Dinner tonight was my second attempt to make a great and creamy, real food, no-bake mac & cheese. This try was better than last time but still not what I'm looking for. I am finding it gritty and wonder if it's from using Gruyere cheese. Not sure; may be from the whole wheat flour I used for the roux. Also not finding it as tasty as I would like. Will keep trying.
A good day today although we tried to go to Rupert's for lunch (which would have been a cheat meal) but they were closed when we got there. Think someone is trying to tell me something. Breakfast was toast and tea. Snack out running errands was a Larabar. Lunch was a toasted cheese sandwich. Dinner tonight was my second attempt to make a great and creamy, real food, no-bake mac & cheese. This try was better than last time but still not what I'm looking for. I am finding it gritty and wonder if it's from using Gruyere cheese. Not sure; may be from the whole wheat flour I used for the roux. Also not finding it as tasty as I would like. Will keep trying. I have noticed that today's eating, although followed the real food guidelines, was very high in carbs and very low in fruits and vegetables :( We did have a great past week of excellent dinner choices with lots of veggies and no grains for dinner. We recently watched the movie "Fat, Sick, Nearly Dead" and it really has me thinking about my veggie and fruit intake. Not just for weight loss but for health in general and disease fighting properties. I am not sure about the juicing idea although it has worked wonders for him and others. I don't like the idea of throwing so much of the fiber away when juicing. After thinking about it I decided to get a good quality blender and start trying to drink more smoothies and make more vegetable soups and other veggie meal ideas. At least with a blender I can make a smoothie and drink all the fruit and veggie; fiber and all :) Let's see how this works out.
