Super proud of my lunch earlier today. 2 eggs, 2 slices of bacon, spinach and mushrooms. 267 calories, 22g Protein, 5 net carbs.

dinner on the other hand? Sigh, ended up eating only half. Sesame soy sauce tofu with kimchi, zucchini, and scallions with gochujang (the carbs in this are insane!) for 192 calories, 9g protein and 8net carbs.

I did end up looking up several Keto gochujang recipes so I’ll probably make and use one of those instead.

Surprisingly yes! I woke up today (day 4) and felt SO much better. Tomorrow after an interview for a new position I’ll be meal prepping for my work week ahead (woohoo for mandatory rotating work weekends 😒🙄)

Weekly, I make a big pot of vegetable Soup that consists of okra, Asian eggplant, peppers, tomatoes, onions, garlic, ginger, daikon, shiitake mushrooms and then I add cabbage, bok choy or spinach at the end. One cup is less than 50 calories. 20220717_142729.jpg

I’ve been looking for more daikon recipes. It’s definitely not like normal radishes. I think it stays crunchier.

Random food the last week(?) or so. All Keto. The mini Bagels also happen to be vegan! Cough @GreenTealael cough.

Also, I didn’t get that job I interviewed for but I wasn’t willing to take a pay cut either so. Their loss.

Photographed in the kitchen. That's why no baby seals.


That looks so good!
Did I miss the recipe?

I use Mama Sita's tamarind Soup base powder packet to make this Vegetable Sinigang and daikon is perfect in it. Roasted eggplant slices and okra go well in it too. I had read that the number one soup recipe in the world voted by the International food Database Taste Atlas was Sinigang so I started back then. It's usually a pork, beef or fish Sinigang but I just make a vegetable version and then add the Protein of my choice when I have a bowl of it.

Can I say I’m tired of all things vegan? Is that allowed? No? It has become increasingly difficult to cook three types of meals so I’m going to stop, again. 🤣

Sorry about the job but you’re right, their loss.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
