I had a smoothie with fresh strawberries, frozen mango and some kefir and a shot of pomegranate juice. It was okay, a healthier alternative to a milkshake.

[yorunaka]

Had to Google what kefir was.
Does it taste similar to greek yogurt?

I am trying to do probiotics so kefir is a new thing for me and I am not a yogurt fan so I like to disguise it. I haven't tried greek yogurt so I couldn't say. Kefir has a silky texture like yogurt before it has set and I get the flavored kind to mask the flavor of the yogurt.

[yorunaka]

If it's extremely sour on its own, I reckon it tastes like greek yogurt.

I tried eating greek yogurt for breakfast before and eventually gave up. Can't stand extreme tastes that well and when I do add honey to balance the taste, the honey makes my throat sore. Haha

And that's your dinner now, yeah?

no, I'm still hungry so I guess I'll have to go see what else there is to eat, besides salad because I ate that earlier... I have been trying to cut back on my carbohydrates but it is so difficult...I like pasta, I like toast, I like crackers and tortilla chips and potato's and rice and.... ugh.

[NerdyAliCat]

In my opinion eating all these 'healthy' foods can be good... but i wouldn't do it.
I pick the healthier option every now and then but just eating less is working for me

Maybe you can try red/brown rice?
Honestly, they don't taste as good but they're also not bad per se.
I do like them though since you don't have to eat a lot to stay satiated for a while.

I actually hate getting hungry real fast because sometimes my stomach will get too acidic.
That's also one reason why I never really eat a main meal without some kind of meat

Yorunaka how on earth did you get that egg ??
Lemon don't hold back on eating those things you like! Just have smaller amounts and less often

brown rice blah but I have tried red rice and purple (or was it black?) and it was actually good, kind of sweet and supposedly very good for you.

Alicat - everything in moderation but I have a tendency to overdo it on the carbs and sweets (think: refined flour and sugar)so I am doing an experiment to see if I can get myself healthier since I spent most of the winter with an upset stomach. I am not avoiding them altogether just reducing them drastically and trying to opt for more "healthier" options. Fortunately fresh fruit is in season right now so I am getting my sugar fill that way.

[yorunaka]

I don't mind brown rice. It's good with food cooked with a lot of spices/herbs haha
And I actually like brown rice better than red rice. Maybe the red rice I ate was a different variety.

On another note about food. Japanese people actually consume a lot of rice/carbs in general but they walk a heck of a lot so I think that's one reason why they're healthy. That plus tea.

@ Cat - I got it from fishing

we're all jealous of that bear egg!

I like the Japanese rice with the soybeans and seaweed and tofu and carrot slices in it. Hmmm I have some of that in the freezer...I may just go eat some of that.

[yorunaka]

I hope everyone gets a bear egg!

And that sounds yummy. Dang. I miss Japanese rice rolls/maki.
Can't get good quality ones here.
Though sashimi here is pretty good cause everything is fresh

ya, now my stomach is making gurgling noises, I think I am going to eat something before it gets too late, watch a show maybe and get to sleep - I have work tomorrow although it is mainly a class on compliance and security issues since new rules are coming into place that we have to adhere to.

[yorunaka]

That's an interesting class. May I know what kind of work you do, if you don't mind me asking?

I think if i was given the option i could live totally on a Japanese diet
I love Japanese food and i find eating rice is easier with chopsticks than with a fork

So jelly of that bear ;-;
