Food Journal #04 : 1/6/2008

At Food #03 today, I had Caesar’s Salad. It was served with kus kus and I downed a cup of Vietnamese Coffee. At night, Tien packed salad and a soup for the next day.

I started the raw food diet last week on Tuesday 27/5/08 and many have asked how it has been. “Do you feel lighter?” Honestly, I don’t. “Do I feel better?” Yes, I do feel more positive knowing what I eat is healthy. I’ve become aware of what I eat.

Despite the developments, my obstacles lie in discipline. Often, at work without thinking, I would munch on snacks. Being at Serangoon Plaza last week did not help much, for the office is full of distractions such as Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Muruku, Elisa’s homecooked meals which she insists on sharing (consists of rice and vegetables).

For the diet to work, one should cut down on sugar, carbohydrates and eat raw meals, in other words, eat as raw as possible. KK suggested snacking on bananas as a beginning point.

This week, I shift back to Golden Mile Complex and I hope, the quiet solitude of my space at TWC2, will help curb my rising habit of snacking.

*Last week, the potato and carrot mix lightly peppered was a favourite of mine. I added thai chillis for flavour.
