What I Ate: January 6, 2008

After starting the day with half a bagel (no toppings) at church, Tina and I ate at Fresh Choice (we had a bunch of errands to run and halfway through I started getting really hungry so we went to Fresh Choice even though I shouldn't be eating salad yet and Tina didn't feel like salad).

I ended up with just a little hominy from the cold foods section, spaghetti, and a couple bowls of chicken noodle soup.

Still hungry, I went to get a potato but was discouraged because I wasn't going to allow myself to use butter, sour cream or bacon. Then I saw the sweet potato and got me one of those (as well as a refill on the chicken noodle soup). I had actually hoped for more soup options, but they were either spicy (chili), high in fiber (lentil), or cream based (chowders). I'm going to be so happy in a couple days when I eat normal foods again.

For dinner, I prepared capellini aglio e olio (thin pasta strands with extra virgin olive oil and garlic). Several plates of this stuff filled me up for a few hours.
