So I got the new “wonder drug” in yesterday’s mail. It’s loaded with caffeine–a fact two which i had paid no attendtion. THese things usually make me so sick to my stomach and generally jittery that I can’t take them, but what the heck–there’s a money back guarantee. So I took one before breakfast. I do feel a little jittery, but my heart isn’t racing or anything stupid and my stomach is fine. It feels very effedra-like, a highly useful substance when used intelligently (thanks, morons!), and one I miss. Breakfast was a Carnatian Instant made with super-skim milk and I do not feel hungry three and a half hours later. In a bit I’ll go eat a giant salad. Giant salads are probably my ace-in-the-hole. I take a mixing bowl like you would use for a double batch of cookies, and fill it with an entire bag of salad mix. typically I split it between spinach and mixed greens, and top it with low fat dressing, fat free cheese, tiny cooked shrimp, and whatever raw veggies I happen to have in the fridge. This giant bowl is an entire day’s worth of veggies, a serving of lean protein, and enough fiber for a small horse. Eating one of these babies nearly every day keeps the intestines quite healthy…

Most times I have a small piece of whole wheat bread to finish off because it makes me feel full. I get the kind that has Omega-3s in it, and I apply a little bit of Omega-3 spread. Combined it still doesn’t have as much of the fatty acid as a good piece of salmon, but it’s cheaper and I don’t have to grill it.

Once my hellians go down for a nap I think I’ll go for another walk.

…so no salad for lunch.  Instead I had a small turkey sandwich with whole wheat and dijon mustard, loaded with raw spinach.  It was quite tasty.  Then I walked for about 25 minutes.  I had about 3 liters of water today, which is good.  For dinner I had a repeat of last night, lamb and rice with green veggies, though in a significantly smaller portion than yesterday.  The whatever-they-are pills I took did keep me from getting hungry, though after the second one I did get a little shaky.  However, I don’t have any desire to eat.  I don’t have the desire to snack.  That may have just as much to do with some other medication I’m taking, but it’s not likely.  Interesting.
