YOu know. There is a reason that Sindi is so skinny. While I dont think
I would be happy living and eating as she does, I have no doubt that if
I did, it would make me very thin.

A ways back there - we get brown rice through a buying coop and it is
Lundberg. The Arkansa grower seems to have gone out of business so no more
choice if we want organic brown rice.
I consider eggs in the same category as meat - no fiber, lots of fat and
protein, and too much protein means you are breaking it down for energy
(instead of carbohydrates being used for energy) which creates breakdown
products which are hard on the kidneys and liver. Also meat/fish/milk/eggs
are a lot less bulky than vegetables and whole grains, and you will not fill
as full after eating them.
I fully understand that it is more difficult for some people to achieve a
healthy weight, and that drugs can make it harder to do so.

Wait a minute - did you just say that it is easier to feel full after eating
vegetables than meat/fish/eggs? Because I've found that to be just hte
opposite.

Exactly, meat/fish/eggs have fat, which make you feel fuller. At least, they
do me. The fat seems to be somewhat necessary to the sensation of fullness.

Hehe. Certain veggies have a way of making me feel full but still
hungry. It is annoying.

I think we are using different definitions of full. When I feel full, it
hurts to put more into my stomach.

resp#425 - that is what I mean by full. It hurts to put more into my
stomach. And yet, sometimes when I just eat veggies, I feel full but
still feel hungry. It is a weird sensation and quite annoying because
even though I am still hungry, I cant eat anything so I have to just be
hungry.

I think I kn ow that feelin g - like when you feel bloated and
couldn't possibly eat a bite, but your stomach's still growling. I
hate that. Stupid over-active digestive system.
I'm having dry corn-flakes this morning. Good snack.
Also, yesterday, had the soft tacos at Chipotle. Then read an article
about how the burrito at Chipotle was about 1300 calories!! Chipotle
hasn't published it's nutritional information either on the site, or
any of the calorie counter books I checked out at B&N. The article did
mention that Chipotle had not made the nutritional content of it's
meals avaialbe, but I thought it was mandatory that all restaurants
could produce the nutritional content of it's meals if the public
wanted it? Isn't this true.
Anyways, no more Chipotle for me for a long time. (Maybe this post
should have gone in item 20 :P sorry)

I've e-mailed Chipotle - no, they don't have the nutritional values. Which
I find annoying. But, everyone's food varies, with their choices and the
generosity of the people making it. I currently get the vegetarian burrito
bowl and eat about 1/3 of it, saving the rest for later.

The Vegetarian Burrito apparently had as many calories as a burger and
fries, or something similar. It seemed outrageously high. You can save
some calories, by getting the bowl instead of the tortilla wrap (340
calories), substituting rice with lettuce and skipping the guacomole.
That would be 430 calories and 4.5 gms of fat. I'm happier with a
Subway sandwich at 280 calories and 4 gms of fat for the Turkey.

I would be worried if I ate it all at once (which I used to do - WOW!), but
now it's many meals for me.

Yeah, I guess that's ok. I wish I had known *before* I had all three
of my soft tacos, though. :( (Not to mention have to worry about how
to pack really wet, messy soft tacos to have for later)

That's what's nice about the bowl. it just wraps up - they'll give you the
foil.

For breakfast: A homemade breakfast shake. I always really liked the
idea of slimfast because it is a quick and easy way to get some
breakfast when one is in a hurry. But it gets most of it's calories
from sugar which wasnt working for me. I would get hungry again too
fast. So I bought some soy protein powder and I mix it with some
metamucil and soy milk and that keeps me from feeling hungry until
lunch.
Lunch today was a chicken ceasar salad.

Fried fava beans. First soak for at least 24 hours then fry slowly in a
little oil. An attempt to add calories and protein. You can also buy them
prefried at the Chinese food stores but they are somewhat stale and salty.
Odd that there is sugar in both weight-loss and weight-gain liquid
preparations.
