Better with eating

I ate some soup and a couple of jalapeno cheese things..... it felt good to eat Lol...but later I didn't feel hungry.

I asked my friend Steve D. what he had and it was wild rice, green beans and grilled chicken.....It sounded good but it didn't make me hungry ....oh well
I may force myself to eat sausage tonight! :)

Can't eat

In the past couple of days I have only eaten a handful of Total Bran flakes, two and a half cookies, and a piece of chicken. I can't eat.
Food doesn't interest me at all right now.
Hopefully this will change soon.
I do watch other people eat though...It makes me feel better when I can't.

I Made Egg Rolls!

This is my first time making them and they came out great. I made them with Cabbage and Carrot filling...Well what I did was that I bought a bag of chopped slaw and satueed that for the filling.
It was so easy to make I couldn't believe it!
Too bad Jan doesn't eat them because I froze like 12 of them and will give Mark some. They are HUGE and AWESOME (Awesome Jan!).
Some of them I put shrimp and cream cheese into...I must say I like Asian cooking. My next thing is Persian food I think.

The Best Raisin Bran

I despise raisin bran but I eat it because of fiber. I have tried all types. My favorite cereal is Kellogs Corn Flakes...That's it...Its the best. But for fiber I have to eat Raisin Bran.

So far Total is the best. Its Yummy and has 5 GRAMS of fiber per serving, so if I eat 2 cups of dry bran I am set for the day (with fiber).
I was so shocked when I tried it. A friend of mine left a box at my house and my generic one ran out so I tried it and loved it. I ate what was left and went to the store to get more. By great chance the day that I went to the store, there was a sale, two of 18 oz boxes for 4 dollars!
So I have them and eat some daily...without milk (blech). Its all about digestion baby......

Raw Food Diet

The Raw Food Diet is coming back in mainly because of health concerns....The only problem I find is that there a lot of prep work involved AND some of these prepared foods (see below) seem very unappetizing.
Look at the description of each.
