Day 1 of dieting went okay..Made the mistake of skipping breakfast so I was really starving by lunchtime and the yong toufu soup I had didn't appease my rumbling tummy. Had to drink lotsa water to make myself feel full..Had a boiled egg as a light snack later and felt much' better. Ate some peanuts in the evening too.
But dinner was yummy.
meganmacy gave me this grilled codfish recipe which sounded so delicious that I had to try it out immediately..I didn't have an oven so I tried using my toaster which is like a pseudo-oven to grill it..I think I overdid on the 'dressing' up of the meal by putting the cherry tomatoes on the pan too (instead of just having it on the fish) and sprinkled the parmesan and mozarella cheese a li' too liberally. And the pan was somewhat beng koak so it was tilting to the left and all the olive oil gravitated to the left side of the pan..
After abt 15 minutes of grilling, the codfish wasn't a pretty sight.., the basil leaves on top of it were all blackened and the tomatoes weren't very cherry looking..and I think the cheese/ tomatoes which laid on the right side of the pan caught fire for a while coz there wasn't much olive oil there [aiyah, should have taken a pic of it]..But the codfish itself looked edible still. And I was so darn hungry that I would have eaten it if it was totally blackened. Prepared a side dish of chef salad and then tried my own cooking. The codfish tasted delicious!! I think it was the basil leaves and the cheese that made the dish! And I'm still feeling full now. I guess it's time to buy a 'real' oven!
Okay, I need more recipes to last me for the next 2 weeks :D~~

I think one should try this diet only if they wanna lose lotsa weight..You aren't overweight what (based on pics i've seen of u)..
Will give u the codfish recipe later coz its in the other puter :)
Hee..reserve ur stomach for ur steamboat and potluck hehe
I think ur exercise regime probably helped u lose weight more coz snackin on cereal shouldn't actually work that well..and u gotta watch what u eat during ur regular meals right?
Btw,what is hydroxycut?
Hm..generally, people all think that Aidan resembles his dad more, especially when they see them in person. I hardly have anyone commenting that he looks like me..although i have to agree..he does have my nose *sob*
I've edited the entry to include the recipe. Am hoping
Aidan does look like daddy, esp the eyes. But his mouth looks like neither of you - I notice it's always slightly open like he's saying 'ohhh', sooo cute!

Hee..i never noticed abt aidan's mouth being slightly agape and on looking at his pics, i realise u are right!! hehe..
Oh btw, have edited the entry to include the codfish recipe.
jia you to u too!~~
Personally, I love having an oven, can bake/grill lotsa stuff, and easy to clean up, not like when u fry stuff.
I tried baking some chicken thigh last weekend, tasted quite good. I just mixed some herbs and pop into the oven. Lemme know if u wanna try the recipe.
Oh pls do share ur recipe. I was actually thinking of making a chicken dish but i had no idea what marination or herbs to use. Was actually gonna bug Mong to pass me a chicken recipe hehe!
've been readin your lj for awhile. Love your adorable son -the cutest baby i've seen! Good luck on your diet and send Aidan my love~ =)
-Gene-
Thanks..hope I'll won't fall of the diet wagon!
Do u have any blog of ur own?
Oooh, Aidan sure has his daddy's eyes but he has your nose, mouth and face shape. Three out of four - you win! :)
hmmm... mayb i shd again.. u b my motivation.. we2 must GAMBATE..!!
y u nvr wear red.. all red red v nicey..!!
Heh..i was wondering who will comment abt the 'redness' of the group pic. I was thinkin of wearin red initially but changed my mind last minute..so Aidan wear red on my behalf..Thankfully tho or else everybody so ang that day! Not chinese new year leh!
Here's the website that I use, more or less the same lah.
I'm going to go through my Moosewood Cookbook for some good carb-like bases for these 2 weeks. I have a hard time eating lots of meat, so I figure some lentil/black bean stew/salads might help fill the tummy. But when I went on Ph1 the first time, I did the same as you - drink lotsa water! Good for your health anyway. You'll get used to eating less after a few days.
"Flunked" again this morning because I ate some porridge. Still sick!! ARGH.
Yeah..was contemplating on Atkins but on reading abt it, I realised it's really challenging and I cant see myself gorging on fats/meaty stuff. My friend was tellin me abt his colleague who was on Atkins and said that her weight loss was rapid..Basically shrunk to half her previous size in just a mere 2 months. But he said that she was eating those fatty meat like crazy n told him that she needed to do so , in order to have the energy replacement. Oh man..erghh..
Yeah hope i get used to the feelin of 'echo' in my tummy. My problem is that i used to snack a lot and I get hungry really fat *sigh*
Ehh, its not so much dieting = eating less. try, erh, eating the low fat stuff, think tofu...lean meat like fish and all that, and lotsa roughage. and fruit juices..haha..
and thats a damnned good recipe! I'll definitely go try it out.
Hee..yeah must try! It taste great!
Recipes, may be you can give these and these a try?
Thanks for the link. will check out the recipe soon!!
