I think they're different but similar. They're also extremely high in fat,
as I recall.

How old is the younger girl now?
Brie is definitely high in fat. This week I am trying to eat cream cheese
instead as the latter has less salt. The brie is softened by the white
coating of mold that grows on the outer skin if you leave it in a warm place
so the mold will be happy, but we are not bothering to wait.
Breakfast so far - one prilosec capsule opened up and the time-release
contents mixed with applesauce made from Rane's last year's windfalls,
followed by lukewarm hawthorne tea, and in one hour oatmeal and then a nasty
tasting prednisone (two mashed pills).

Had dinner at the Golden Wall Chinese/Vietnamese restaurant on
Cross Street in Ypsilanti. It carries the concept of "family
restaurant" to a new level. (Details on request.) What I ate
was a nice curry vegetable & tofu stir-fry.

Jim made jor and me supper while he ate leftovers. Organic purple potatoes
and (orange) carrots. Organic eggs and green pepper omelet. Organic
breadmaker bread. Last meal before surgery - you need to have an empty
stomach for the anesthetic (which is probably not organic). The leftovers
were also organic (squash and collard greens).

(I don't mean to be rude jaklumen, but I did understand from other posts that
you were trying to lose weight. Somehow, the diet doesn't show the commitment.
I was just wondering if I was mistaken)

No, the jelly donut diet. Jaklumen, is this diet actually helping you to lose
weight? Maybe you are eating smaller portions than you used to, but I agree
with mynxcat that the types of foods you have been posting are not the sort
I would expect of a weight loss diet. (But then again, I would not expect
to lose weight on what mynxcat is eating either, which seems rather short on
fiber and low-calorie fillers.)
I will have a Prilosec for breakfast in apple sauce in an hour and I guess
just be hungry for two hours after that. Prednisone makes me hungry. Last
one for a while luckily. Maybe I will cheat and eat something first but the
Prilosec I think gets absorbed faster on an empty stomach. Mine feels empty.
I can wait 1/2 hour to wake Jim to mash my pills for me.

In defense of Jaklumen's diet, the first part of recognizing what to eat to
lose weight it so look at what you are currently eating and when. If he is
a big time snacker, which I am, and cuts back on that, it may help a lot.

re #220 - I've heard that the quality is decent, but not great, and if
you want good meat, you're probably better off going to your local
butcher.

Re 218 - Though I do agree that my diet is low-cal and may be low on
fiber, apart from posting a couple of times here (I think Subway
sandwiches both times), and maybe about some substitutes I've made
that I posted in item 20, I've not really discussed what I've been
eating. So I'm not sure from where you made that inference

What you (mynxcat) have posted eating seems rather high on calorie-dense
things (meat including fish and fowl) and low on bulk, at least compared to
how we eat, as listed mostly in item 20. The bulk (fiber) fills you up and
keeps you from eating at much.
Today I ate a whole bunch of high-fiber and liquid and low-salt stuff that
Jim keeps cooking for me, most recently microwaved bitter apples from Vet's
Park. Last day of this sort of diet.

Well, I *seem* to be doing alright, from today's weigh-in. I think
lunch is probably my problem area, especially when I'm on the run.
I hope you're looking at lunch and dinner... breakfast *is* low-carb.
Dinner is, too, I just am maybe indulgent with dessert. Last night
was an especially bad example.
BUT
I don't think anyone was reading the other item Sapna started. I have
to limit dinner to an hour, period. I have a balanced low-carb dinner
that allows some dessert, but I cannot eat more than an hour. The
Carbohydrate Addict's Diet is *not* Atkins, and I have to keep
reminding people of that. I had bad cravings at dinner when I tried
to do Atkins, so I don't skip a dessert.
resp:219 I don't snack.. not out of habit.
As far as lunch, yes, I know I cheat terribly. What's hard sometimes,
too, is I sometimes get a mid-morning hunger. What's even worse is
low-carb isn't terribly portable, so if I have to go run somewhere
after work, sometimes it's easier to go somewhere to eat... and most
places just don't do low-carb well. I've done salads and such for a
long, long time.
I'm hoping to increase exercise, actually. Hopefully *that* will be
easier after next week's sleep study and getting the C-PAP machine.
