Days 5-6 (Week-end)

Well, I need to say, this week-end was really nice: I ate some sea-food, some really nice beans, and even went to a restaurant (actually, to a very nice one). So, the results are:

Day 5

Breakfast:  2 Toasts with Chopped Tomato and Olive Oil. Green tea.

Midday: A mandarine and a pear.

Lunch: Salad (rucula, tomato, almonds and walnuts, olice oil, salt and a little bit of vinegar). Grilled asparagus. A slice of bread. Shrimps grilled with garlic - really nice, eh?

Afternoon: Fruit salad (just all kinds of fruits plus prange juice, no sugar)

Dinner: Restaurant food: Escalibada de verduras with bacalao carpaccio (I found a pictire in the following curious blog - need to check it out!) and a slice of bread. The quality of food was amazing.

Day 6

Breakfast:  Oatmeal with honey (no sugar, no salt). Green Tea with 4 biscuits.

Midday: A bowl of strawberries.

Lunch: I had a fantastic bean stew which I found here. It was REALLY good. I modified the recipe a little, didn't add any chicken broth (just water) and added less oil.

Afternoon: A banana and a bowl of red grapes.

Dinner: Steamed Brussels Sprouts with rice and sinflower oil.

Before bed: Homemade yoghourt.

I feel quite full after each meal, which is great. Before, I used to eat a lot of bread - I am trying to reduce this. I was also really addicted to black tea with milk. I am not drinking it now at all. Just green tea sometimes. Same with chocolate and sweets. It was very hard, but I have reduced that as well (I still have my cravings!) Night night!
