Foodie me has tried out a bold endeavour after a long time, a not so strict south beach diet. Am off rice, noodles, potatoes, bread, cereal for 14 days. At the beginning of stage, having to live on cold salad in the morning was not so easy. However, i gradually developed love towards the cold crunchy breakfast, of course it must be followed by my hot morning coffee. After a week, the sugar craving was under controlled. Even the Lays potato chips was on great sale (3 bucks cheaper), still, i managed to walk away from it. A tiny victory 😊.
As the diet continues. Creativity hits. I managed to create several type of salad dressing with what available in my kitchen at that time and i totally love them. The balsamic vinegar that my brother gave, which i thought i would never finish is vanishing at a steady rate. I feel great that for people from a rice nation, i am able to keep my meals with totally no rice and noodles and bread, and it is not much of pain and fussiness l.
