Day 15 - leftovers & tuna cravings

Whenever I'm visiting my parents, my mom always stocks up like there's 15 of us visiting and then insists I take everything that I don't eat there with me home.

It's a bit annoying, since I have to eat leftovers for the next 3 days.

And so today there was absolutely nothing worth photographing, documenting or sharing a recipe... cause I made nothing new.

Pancakes (leftovers) for breakfast.
Strawberry smoothie for snack.
Barley minestrone leftovers for lunch (with homemade bread she baked for me) & I threw in there a big spoon of powdered wheat sprouts.
An apple and soy yogurt for dinner.

Booring, I know :)
But I am done with leftovers now and tomorrow will perhaps bring some inspiration in the kitchen.

Today I had a bit of a crisis over a can of tuna. I LOVE canned tuna (that is, I only eat Rio Mare). I yearned for tuna today. It was really hard to resist and although I already told myself that cravings are allowed and not subject to explanation (see Rules on top), I really didn't want to give in.

And so far I'm still resisting, even though the urge is really strong.
I hope I make it.
Need to find something to snack on and occupy my thoughts, until it's too late to eat anymore.

  1. Could you totally resist temptation or have you finally yield it?

  2. Actually, I made a large bowl of popcorn, put on a movie and concentrated on that!

    That is, until I fell asleep on the couch at 10 pm with the movie still rolling :)

    But, no tuna!

  3. Oh I know such dilemmas, lately, on days that I try to fast, I tell myself "oh such a pity not to eat this" (like when you know the next day it's gonna be bad) or "I made it till 5pm, I can't give up now" ...so big congrats on resisting!
