W2: D8

As promised I will forward you my new recipes:


Well not really recipes, but what am I doing to add variety to my diet.

First off I purchased a medium sized rice cooker with a steam tray and a spice rack from Target .

I purchased a few bags of WHOLE GRAIN rice, the white stuff is evil.

I also picked several bags of a Broccoli/cauliflower/carrot mix.

And finally a few pounds of lean chicken breasts.

The first thing I did was fill the well half way with water, reduced sodium chicken broth, garlic, carrots, celery, chopped onions, and a variety of spices. Then I let the steamer come to a boil.

In the meantime I mixed olive oil chopped onions, garlic, some spices, a tiny pinch of sea salt in a bowl and rubbed my chicken into the mix.

I placed to pieces into the steam tray and cook the chicken for ten minutes (checked to make sure that it was fully cooked) and put it into a Tupperware.

I did this for all my chicken, stacked it into the Tupperware, then refgerated it.

With the broth and the chicken, I now have my protein for 3 – 4 days.

Each piece is no more than 80 calories, I eat 4 pieces through out the day (starting a couple of hours after breakfast, and an hour before lunch, if done right eat a piece an hour for four hours).

Between breakfast and lunch I eat my apples.

This seems to be holding me off.

Of course this was my first day.

Tomorow I am going to try to cook fish in my steamer.

I am steamed

Epilogue: This is no way an instructional thing or a guide, I am just informing you (my reader) what I am doing through the course of my journey.  Mainly this is for me, to record my progress, oh and since is the first day of week 2 I need to include a picture, I promise I will take one tomorrow.
