Food Before and After Photos

Ugly plate but pretty good. I made a bunch of vegetarian southern food. Vegetarian collard greens and tomatoes, low sugar Cornbread, barbecue Beans, a vegan chicken nugget and a boiled egg. Hits the spot and is filling.

Made Asian style foods for dinner- teriyaki rice noodles, marinated mushrooms, miso Soup, general Tso’s tofu, eomuk with those TikTok diy tteokbokki (they’re ok but I’ll buy the real thing from now on), pomegranate seeds, rice, and cucumber slices.

Wasn’t feeling the greatest yesterday or this morning so this was my breakfast- miso Soup, chai latte, and black tea with lemon juice.

The other day though I made danmuji (Korean pickled daikon radish) The daikon is from my grocery shopping this past week that I didn’t share.

Spent $128US this past week on groceries. It would’ve been less if my coupon for the pumpkins came off and I’d have found a brisket that was smaller. (I only wanted one around 10lbs) Saved around $120US though! With the brisket I’m going to make some corned beef, ground beef, a roast, and marinate some for Korean beef.

This time I placed an Amazon fresh order. The caveat with AF is that (at least for me) the minimum order before coupons and deals come off has to be $35 to avoid extra fees so I try to find things I’ll use that have a coupon or discount (hence the chocolate and olive oil) but you really can’t beat $5.54 for 6lbs (2.72kg) of daikon.

The vegan child made vegan lasagna that I forgot to post (It fell apart during serving)

I didn’t eat any but everyone else loved it. She used daiya shreds and nutritional yeast to mimic cheese flavor.

I wish we had Amazon fresh here. Or at least supermarkets delivery service. Seriously, Germany is a desert when it comes to this. Unless you live in cities like Munich, Berlin or Frankfurt/Main etc. you're screwed.

I order food online but it's like you order at the store and then it comes with DHL or UPS - but that's very different from your local stores like REWE or tegut having delivery service with time slots that ensure you're really at home when the delivery arrives.

Goodbye lunch with friends at the New Grand Bohemian Hotel in Greenville, SC

Pork sausages with fresh tomatoes, celery, onion & mushrooms in gravy. I cheated & used Gravox - LOL! Only use the fat pork sausages from the butcher in my home town. They are the best. Every so often I buy some when visiting my mum then freeze them in packs of two for when when I want to cook them.

Sometimes i eat junk.

(I am 4 years post op and have been in maintenance for over 3 years and have long ago learned what i can eat without imploding)

I haven’t eaten since 2 pm yesterday (i got distracted by errands and then was just too pooped by end of day to do anything but sleep!), so i woke up pretty starving this AM.

So when im super hungry, i don’t have the patience to cook something suitable so i just grabbed whatever was laying around.

In this case it was a cold piece of bacon, 1/2 a Chinese bbq pork bun and a handful of ketchup chips!!

Aside: this is actually a life lesson to have healthy things laying around so u dont end up with a Breakfast like this lol.

Had I eaten it all, it would’ve been 397 calories. Ended up just eating the cold bacon, the meat filling of the bun and some of the bun that got in the way of the filling lol.

Estimated 159 cals for what i ate.

(will likely eat the chips later though if someone doesn’t get to it first!)
