Diary

12:30

• 2 radish bulbs

• 1 cherry tomato

• one eighth of a cup of dry oat bran

• quarter of a cup of soy beans (from frozen)

• three quarters of a cup of coconut milk (from can)

• 1 tbs of cocoa powder

• quarter of a medium avocado

15:00

• 1 baby cucumber

• 1 large pear

• 3 peeled roasted chestnuts (Brand: Trustin)

15:30

This was meant to be a snack before I head out to keep me full until 18:00. But feels too much: the pear is too filling. Need to get used to buying small fruits!

16:05

A solid dose of iced matcha and ginger tea

18:15

• 2 medium pak choi leaves

• 3 medium Chikory leaves

• a few parsley and rocket leaves

• 2 raw asparagus sticks

• About a tbs of tomato paste from concentrate

• a cup of mixed and cooked beans and rice. Ingredients from dried bag: [Rice(sticky rice, rice, black rice) 59%, Beans (red,mung,kidney) 20.9%, crushed corn, red jujube, hushed buckwheat, peanuts, lotus seeds]

Perfect quantity. Similar reaction to to 15th of July. Might be the ‘red jubjube’, it’s the only thing I’ve never heard of before. Feeling was almost instant after the meal.

Certainly felt uncomfortable after an hour or 2. Good to stay away from this for a long time. My frozen cooked batch is over anyway.

23:00

• 2 pak choi leafs + base stem

• 3 chicory leafs + base stem

• 20 minute pause

• half a medium green sweet bell pepper

• quarter of a cup of whole grain rice (Ben’s original classic - ready in 2-minute bag)

• quarter of a cup of edamame beans

• quarter of a cup of coconut cultured yogurt

• 1tbs of cold milled organic flax seeds (Brand: Linwoods)

• 1tbs of hemp powder (brand: Naturya)

23:30

End of meal

10-minute eating time
