Menudo

To most people this might look like a bad idea..... But to me it looks like comfort in a can. And boy could I use some comfort this week. Being from Las Cruces NM, menudo is something that is a staple of any menu. Whenever I am home I make sure to eat as much as possible, so when I saw this at my local (Orlando FL) Winn Dixie I knew I had to try it. Not bad at all, of course I added diced onion, a squeeze of lime and oregano but I was pleasantly surprised. Not bad at all:)

day 2 meal 1

my breakfast :) leftover salad from yesterday, a little cucumber and pineapple to offset the pork I had yesterday. 

I didn't take a picture because I was cooking for an event and just making sure it tasted right. nothing substantial.

33oz of cold water and maybe a bowl of cereal(special k and almond milk) if I still need something.

I should mention that according to 4 hr body, dairy is a no-go, wheat and rice no-go, fruit no-go. so maybe no cereal

food diary

My seester and I started this food blog thingy because we love food. obviously.  But of course that day I noticed a pudge below my belly button or a FUPA to some. This is not okay. So in addition to food reviews I'm also going to highlight my diet. I just recently learned of the 4 hr body and now you're going to learn about it too. First steps measurements and food diary.

To start, a virtual food diary.  Taking pics or jotting down what you eat throughout the day will make you more aware of it. Additionally, posting it online will give you more accountability.  I know I don't want anyone knowing I ate a half a tub of ice cream...maybe that's just me. This probably wont work if you literally have no shame.

My first meal of the day (11:22am) a little late...ok a lot late considering I woke up at 8 and you're supposed to eat within an hour of waking up. You're also not supposed to eat fruit. I fail there. I love pineapple.

first thing I ate today was a slice of pineapple

but I digress
