Wow has school been a heap load already. Taking an Illustrator class along with a Color (paints) class is just terrible. The exercises/assignments take several, several hours, depending of course on the students interpretations of his/her art. Not cool.

Since I haven't been able to document each day of my photographed meals, I'll post them as a group here.



Egg whites and brocolli w/ potatoes & herb seasoning.


30 calorie jalapeno cheese slice (addicting).


My failed attempt at lettuce wraps. Note: This image is deceiving.


Alfredo pasta w/ mushrooms and turkey sausage. Middle layer of spinach.


My first attempt at Eggs in a Basket: failed.
I flipped it over. Too soon.


That's more like it.

If you were wondering, my daily calorie goal on Livestrong is 950 which is set at "losing 2lbs/wk". I could choose to lose 1 or 1.5lbs/wk, but the 2lb goal keeps me in better control of my food no matter what. I still go over here and there so I don't exactly lose 2lb in a week, but it's the developing discipline I'm focusing on. I need to buy a weighing scale.

I signed up for Livestrong.com's MyPlate this morning around 2am. It's not super accurate, and I doubted it big time, but it's pretty neat! It has been an enjoyment so far, listing down my meals and gaining a lot of simple information from them. During the fitness section for the day, I wondered if my leading worship dealt with any burning of calories! And to my surprise, it did!



Well - that's me, including my half hour of worship practice and next half hour of worship during the service! It placed a little smile on my face just seeing that for some reason. Unfortunately, I didn't get to stretch today though. Should prob get to that now...

Here was my afternoon snack the other day that I mentioned did not get uploaded yet:



Doesn't spinach always look amazing? I had some more today except with EVOO/lemon vinaigrette, which today was my first time making it. We never have lemons! I also added a little chunk of grilled catfish. It was such a pleasurable combination! Here it is:



My first meal of the day actually was after church.
  • 1/2 cup baby spinach
  • 1 tbsp cauliflower rice
  • 2 tsp EVOO/lemon w/ pepper
  • itty bitty portion of grilled catfish :) (mixed into salad)
  • 4 pc pork emputido w/ some sriracha (you know you didn't put enough if you can't tell where it is!)
  • 1/4 cup of blueberries
If you guys were clueless of my drinking, I only drink water now. I just can't get used to anything else anymore, but I'm proud of myself for that. ANOTHER thing I am proud of is that I am the same way towards white steamed rice! I've been so used to cauliflower rice, and it's only been about a week eating it! What kind of filipino am I? Totally fine with me though.
