Today went great as far as my nutrition goes. I decided to try out cream of wheat...problem was, I did not know how to cook it. I gave it a good shot and outside of the earthy taste of it, it turned out not too bad. Here is the recipe I used:
1/4 cup cream of wheat
1/4 cup water
3/4 cup skim milk
1 scoop Vanilla flavored whey protein
Put all ingredients into a saucepan. Heat until it just starts to boil. You really really have to stir constantly. This stuff is like glue. I am confident that I sealed many small holes throughout my body just by eating it.
I have been trying to respect a pseudo meal plan, but getting into the habit of structured meals is proving to be a minor challenge. With all that's going on around me, I will need to work on preparing my meals ahead of time so that I will always be ready to chow down.
I am going to skip talking about the gym because it just cant happen for the next few days. What I would like to focus on right now is the food and how I feel about how I am eating now.
As of right now, I am starting to dig the food. I am not quite used to skipping the urge to put butter and mayo on everything I put into my mouth, but that's OK. So far i have not felt the desire to break with what I am eating. I do however realize I have the ability to be more creative with what I eat. So the big task for day 3 to about day 7 should be finding recipes that I am happy with and that I can look forward to. I need to put my mind into a good place. I need to make this alot less of a diet and a lot more about changing what i like to eat.
OK. I don't have time to reread this posting. I will try to spend a bit of time figuring out a solid structure for the blog. I would love to have a few sections, maybe Nutrition, Fitness, a recipe to try, Personal feelings, and possibly a link of the day...I dunno. If anyone has a mind for such things, just leave me a comment.
