Good evening! Today is the first day of my diet challenge. And it really has proven to be a challenge for me so far! I had actually took the pictures of the food with my colleague's camera phone, however, he didn't email me the pictures! So forget it lah.
As mention, I will attempt this near-raw diet on my working days. Therefore, on non-working days, I will resume my default non-vegetarian dietary, however, will be moderate, if not would have waste the effort! I will track down the type of workout I do if I do happen to do them.
The first concern for this diet challenge is my mom. Little did I expect I had to take so many boxes home last night. I was anticipating that my mom would jump at me for taking quite some spaces in the fridge but she didn't. From her expression, I guessed that she was sort of half encouraging me and half bewildered. Because I am not exactly a person who eat green.
Another challenge is the stare from my colleagues. All of them were stunned at first glance of me eating the greens but all of them said actually the food looks delicious.
A bit of information about my current status. My height is 173 cm and my weight is 101 kg or more. From tomorrow onwards, I will monitor my weight on everyday Friday. And see how it drops. My ideal weight is about 70 kg. But I had never hit that. My 'lightest' weight was about 75 kg. To me, I am happy if I can hit back 80 kg.
Anyway, this is what I had consumed:
Pass midnight (I reached home late last night):- 1 mug of freshly squeeze orange juice
Breakfast:- 1 mug of milo (2 spoons of milo and 2 teaspoons of sugar), 5 slices of Gardenia wholemeal bread spread with Snow margarine
Lunch:- 1 Tien's Sandwich, 1 lunchbox of salad with the cauliflower as the main theme (box 1), 1 lunchbox of salad diced kiwi fruit, orange, tomato (box 2), 1 mug of warm water
Dinner:- 1 small bowl of pumpkin soup
Now (=P):- 1 mug of drink that has pear and dates Plain water now-and-then
The mug that I had mentioned is about 1.5 the capacity of an average cup. I couldn't finish box 2. I realise the eating lunch with 1 mug of warm water filled me up easily. I got to say that the sauces made the salads more tasty to me. I like that bacon-looking thing in box 1. Not sure what is that, got to ask Tien tomorrow. I think for tomorrow, I will bring only the Pumpkin Rice and 1 box 2. That should be suffice, since at night I will drop by to Food#03 again.
I do find that it would probably take some time for me to get used to raw vegetable's taste. I may consider using fruits to replace some of the meals. That's a bit like juicing is it?
My mom tried a bit of pumpkin soup and she likes it. But she doesn't appreciate the drink with the pear and dates. Oh, she likes that bacon-looking thing too.
