Oatmeal is such a great breakfast. Why? easy to make, high in protein, low in fat, and very filling. Excellent when eaten hot (it does get gummy as it cools) but not so much so that you want to overeat on it. Great way to get a nice filling breakfast without fighting the urge to gorge yourself.

I’ve been a vegetarian for the past 22 years and the number one question I get is: Do you eat salad every day? In the summer when salad stuff is in season, YES. I love salad!! It’s wonderful stuff, it tastes so good and I can eat as much as I want of it! I’m struggling with getting my weight to a healthy level so this is a big deal for me. I still have ‘eyes bigger than belly’ syndrome, LOL.

A recent salad I took to work, it was so good and filling! the tomatoes, some of the greens, zucchini and stuff are from the garden; the soybeans from the store.

This is generally what I take to work to eat: A big salad, a couple of boiled eggs, 2 apples or some other fruit, a baggie of snow peas, a big bag of air-popped popcorn (no salt or butter on it boo hiss! ha ha) and some herbal tea and honey. Some days instead of eggs I take yogurt and/or nuts. On days I am at my bookstore also I add a few veggie sandwiches (peanut butter or veggie burger I made) and another piece of fruit. All in all it’s not enough, I feel hungry a lot. I’m going to up what I take in because I want to avoid getting the junk food that is there, yuck.

Most everyone at my job eats junk, junk, junk all day long…calorie dense and high fat foods that fill you up but offer very little nutrition. The food I eat is opposite; it’s very high in nutrition, fiber, etc but you burn through it very quickly…which is fine when I’m working at home or at my store and can eat when and how I want, but at the job it’s a hassle cause I’m restricted to eating within a few short breaks and a half hour lunch. It takes me 10 minutes just to eat my salad! LOL.

Today I added pasta with a nice low-salt sauce Mercury Man made (leftovers from dinner), tomorrow I’m adding a baked potato. I bet foods like those will make all the difference. Any suggestions?
