Diary
7:40
about half a cup of partially rehydrated prunes (13) (Product: tesco bag) - microwaved
9:15
4 small organic sweet gem lettuce leaves
small handful of ‘Fresh and Naked’ Rockets
9:20
Presoaked together for about 12h in 0.35l kilner jar:
quarter of a cup of dry rolled organic Oats (tesco)
half a cup of organic soy milk (Product: Plenish)
With:
quarter of a cup of ready to eat edamame beans - tesco
1 tbs of cold milled flax seeds
5 green reduced-salt-tesco green olives
1 large Love Beets beetroot
11:00
Coffee
12:50
Humbly sat in a 0.63L glass tupperware:
a small handful of ‘Fresh & Naked Mixed Little Leaves’ - Ingredients: Wild Rocket, Baby Spinach, Baby Red Chard, Baby Red Lettuce.
a handful of ‘Fresh & Naked’ Rockets
4 medium organic gem lettuce leaves
2 cherry tomatoes
3 radish bulbs
13:10 start of meal
Microwave heated together in a 0.63L glass Tupperware:
a little over half a cup of pre-cooked Aunt Nidal’s white rice with salt
about quarter of a cup of Aunt Nidal’s red lentils with tomato sauce, some vegetables and spices
about 10 mangetouts
Good and satisfying - I didn’t expect the heated mangetouts to be good - if anything I should’ve heated them more to enhance digestibility.
14:30
1 small Braeburn apple
15:30
Peppermint and spearmint tea
16:30
all chucked together in a 0.63 glass Tupperware and refrigerated for 36h:
Pre-washed and sitting humbly on-top ingesting the scents of the gatherers below are:
a small handful of ‘Fresh & Naked Mixed Little Leaves’ - Ingredients: Wild Rocket, Baby Spinach, Baby Red Chard, Baby Red Lettuce.
a handful of ‘Fresh & Naked’ Rockets
The gatherers wait a few minutes while I write this:
Half a cup of the coconut collab - coconut culture yoghurt
1tbs of cocoa powder
Quarter of a cup of frozen blueberries
Half a cup of frozen mango chunks
Quarter of a cup or 3 big chunks of frozen pineapples
Quarter of a cup of chickpeas
1 tbs of hemp powder
1 tbs of sunflower seeds
The chickpeas add an interesting texture and flavour. I’d prefer half a serving of a legume rather than a grain. It makes more sense nutritionally as too. Adding both is just too much stuff. It already feels like a tiny bit much - but worth it, or is it just today?
A quick review on where we are:
Generally okay, prunes seem to be doing their job well. still gasy, and i’ll find out this week if it was Auntie’s food! Love you Auntie! Energy levels could do be better, my general day performance and gym performance is half of what it used to be. Energy crashes are pretty much gone, If I do have them, I know why, which is a good thing. My understanding of how my body responds is getting better, my relationship with my body needs a bit more attention and as cheesy as it sounds, needs a bit more love, particularly when it comes to finger cracking, nails, and inner mouth biting.
18:50 - Speaking of which, major energy crash, more of a bodily discomfort and a bit disoriented. It feels similar to the disorientation and bodily clumsiness when constipated and the colon does’’t seem to want to get things out
20:10
1 mini sweet orange bell pepper
quarter of a cup of precooked cooked tempeh with some mixed tomatos, onions, garlic powder, olive oil, balsamic grape vineger, salt, ginger powder.
quarter of a cup of mixed 3 bean chili from can (Brand: Free and Easy)
Half a cup of Aunt Nidal’s Bulgur with tomato and other vegs and spices
3 tbs of hommus
1 fig
2 dates
1 cacao seed
quarter of a cup of frozen raspberries
I seem to be enjoying complex and bigger portions of meals at the end of the day.
Discomfort for the rest of the night - started since the 16:30 meal
