A good day always involves Swedish Glace

I've been using scoops of the Neapolitan one on top of chocolate-banana shakes and it is really delish!

[applepie]

I've been away for team leader training (for my job as a student mentor). We were staying at a really posh hotel and I was quite impressed with their ability to cater for vegans - possibly the best vegan meal I've had at a non-vegan place!

yesterday:
plenty of coffee
caramelized carrots, courgettes + aubergine from the lunch buffet, and a breadroll
3-course dinner: for me they came up with 3 types of melon, rosemary potatoes cooked with various veg (peppers, carrot, cabbage) and nicely seasoned, fruit salad with the greatest variety of fruit I've ever had

today:
plenty of coffee again
banana
ratatouille + a breadroll from the lunch buffet
3 bourbon creams
now munching on a late "supper" of muesli, apple + rice milk

[DiaShel]

banana, peach, and strawberries
spinach salad
cashews and raisins
apple
pb lara bar
cherry pie lara bar
trail mix
apple and strawberries
cashews and raisins

weird day

[Est]

Can I just say that Tofu is the most revolting thing that I have ever tasted?!

My first taste of it was pretty disgusting, tis true

But apparently the way it is marinaded and prepared has a BIG impact on the texture and taste (and you can also buy pre-flavoured ones that are supposed to be nice).

Anyway I tried again with some home-smoked tofu in a salad at a restaurant and it was really delicious, tasted nothing like the other lot.

Keep experimenting!

crazy 4 veg - hope you feel better soon. Sounds nasty

Yeah it is nasty . 11 days on from it starting I STILL have this going on . Went to the doctors and he says it's tonsilitus, a viral infection and some kind of allergy that isn't food related . Talk about painful still damn it. I've been eating better though. Trying to make sure I eat even though it hurts as otherwise I won't get better.

Breakfast - 2 satsumas, some strawberries, 2 alpro soya yogurts.
Lunch - chips with ketchup.
Dinner - sweet and sour veg with rice noodles (veg includes onion, sweetcorn, peas, carrots and tomatoe enough for the 5 a day in that alone ).
Supper - 2 slices of vegetable pizza with no cheese .

Snacks - apple pie, liquorice.

Drinks - water, pineapple juice, hot chocolate, coffee and cola.

That's more like what I eat normally compared to the last time I posted. I hope I am eating enough though .

Breakfast: We didn't have anything that seemed edible to me at the time...

Lunch: A really random smoothie made with a ton of different fruits.
