Day 1 down!

So my first day wasn't really that exciting.  I expected a lot of mental angst and hand wringing, but I guess all that will come later.  For breakfast I had my coffee as usual (with coconut milk instead of half and half this time), and 2 boiled eggs.  For lunch I had the exquisite delicacy known as plain ol' roast beef and broccoli (with ranch on the side), and for dinner I had coconut curry shrimp on a bed of spinach and arugula (it was actually really tasty!).  For a snack I had some yogurt mixed with raw honey and fruit and some almonds. I probably didn't eat enough today, but I was so wiped out from the cumulative effects of days upon days of lack of sleep that I slept from 5pm to 8pm! So that cut into my hunting and foraging time.

I'll try to eat more tomorrow and take pictures to make it all look as appetizing as possible so all of you are incredibly jealous (hey, I gotta go out in style!).  Also, if any hand wringing occurs, or if I find myself crying and/or talking to myself in front of an ice cream sandwich in the store, then I'll document the whole experience for your amusement.

Tomorrow when I get home from work I'm going to try to make stuffed cabbage!  The recipe calls for cabbage leaves smothered in tomato sauce, wrapped up in tight little bundles that hold a nice 4oz serving of ground beef with rice, onions, and other seasonings.   I'm going to try to use some bland vegetables like cauliflower in place of the rice.
