Thread Name: BS: Cereal, Salad & Soup Diet
Subject: RE: BS: Cereal, Salad & Soup Diet
Joe, I'm loving the soup part too, but finding it tougher to be enthusiastic about salads - but salad seems to be the cross us fatsos have to bare as punishment for all those "just one biscuit then" moments, that end up being ten buscuits. I need to explore some classic salads and seasonings. And I should make a special effort to concoct proper tasty low fat dressings too, rather than keep resorting to plain old lemon juice and sea salt.

Today I had Puffed wheat wiv a drizzle of runny honey & skim milk (all outa puffed wheat now, muesli tomorrow), Pasta salad with sweetcorn, tomato, onion & cucumber. And yummy Mushroom, Noodle & Barley Broth - made with a dark miso broth. Buckwheat noodles were added as an afterthought because I made it too salty at first, but they were topper.

I also really like cereals, just so long as they're not too sugary and over processed. If I had to eat that stuff you set kids 'Toffee Choccy Clusters' or 'Golden Sugar Bix' every day for brekkers, I'd feel squiffy.

VTam, yes please.. :)
