I went so far off the diet reservation today! Lately I've been a portion controlled brown rice vegetables and steamed fish girl. Today I pigged out. I ate macaroni salad and ham and coffee cake and oh the candy oh the chocolate. I also drank coffee for the first time in a long time. Its effect was tremendous. When I got home, I rearranged and cleaned the kitchen. I didn't even really enjoy it either. Sure it was greasy and heavy and delicious, but I knew it was wrong. I feel so gross! I forgot what it feels like to be this full, it's super uncomfortable. I suppose it's a blessing that I'm regretful and sick. I have to remember this feeling so don't do it again. I'm glad I'm not alone in this! ;) Happy Easter. |

BANANA PUDDING-- I made it tonight. Lick the bowl yummy. 1 can light coconut milk 2 big ripe bananas 1 tsp sea salt 1/4 tsp cinnamon pinch of ginger powder 4 packets of Splenda
1) Put the coconut milk, salt, Splenda, cinnamon & ginger into a small sauce pan. (Shake the can before you pour it out.) 2) Slowly heat up the coconut milk mixture, stirring occasionally. 3) Mash up the bananas with the back of a fork. 4) Bring the milk mixture to a boil, add the bananas, turn the heat down and simmer for ~20 minutes, stirring occasionally so it doesn't stick to the sides of the pan. 5) When it becomes the consistency of pudding, take it off the heat.
