There are some things I just can't buy or I'll eat it all before i even put them away (peppermint ice cream, TJ's Sweet & Salty Trail mix, beef jerky, Almond Roca).
And TJ's Thai Lime & Chili Cashews. Man, they're so good and addicting.
Next week I'm eating vegan. Not the kind of vegan Zack is eating because that kind of eating makes me fat (bread, pasta, potatoes, rice). The kind of vegan my body needs me to eat is vegetables and protein. Zack researched some body analysis thing and says my body type (short, sturdy, gains muscle quick & bulky like) also needs to eat a diet high in good fat. So how about a salad of avocados, nuts & olive oil? Sounds good to me!

Never even thought about that... thanks for sharing. Good to hear I am not the only one who's body does better on protein and veggies and less carbs...
I guess that's why I will never go totally vegan ;)))
Please share some recipes next week, I am looking for more variation ;)
Grain wise, I do well on Quinoa.
Yes, Mirjam I will post what I'm eating!
Would love to hear your recipes too Jess. What do they call our body type? Farmer? I'm ok with that;-0 When we lived in Venezuela we got to eat cashew fruit, it's hard to describe but so delish! I didn't know they were considered apples so thanks for that info! Of course as kids we didn't listen to the adults and tried to eat the nut straight from the fruit -yuck! the oil is so bitter! I love cashew nut & fruit. Thanks for bringing back a great memory!

I was pretty sure that cashew "apple" was a joke but sure enough! So weird. Speaking of peppermint ice cream, how about safeway premium peppermint bark ice cream?! Kind of feels like a traitor not to eat the pink kind but how can you beat anything with a little chocolate added?
Yeah I don't think it's really technically an apple tree, but it looks like an apple. Weird right? I haven't tried the peppermint bark, I didn't try the one you told me to try last year either...what was it? Haagen Daaz something...if I try it then I keep eating it. Maybe if I don't try it??...
We are never happy with our body types. I had to quit the vegan diet. I felt better and never hungry, but i just kept losing weight. When i got down to 111 and was 118 in high school, and all my clothes were hanging on me I decided to call it quites. Joe Put me on a Beer and Ice cream diet and now i am back to normal. You now its bad when even your husband wants you to gain weight...Maybe Zack can tell me what i did wrong from that articular.
Lol Ruthie. Are you feeling better on the beer & ice cream? Maybe that's just what you needed :)
No, Jessica, I can't say I feel better, just don't look so sick. I guess...
