I was surprised that dipping the eggplant in a beaten egg and fried Dukan style did very well. Oh what a beautiful eggplant and I have more. I think I must go ahead and cook and freeze them. I have no choice. That or change my pv/pp.
I really think that this diet is getting more and more expensive. The flavorings are essential. I do not know what I will do without them but soon I will know. Greek yogurt is high. But it is the meat and fish that is so dear. I do not like chicken. Eggs are the more reasonable protein and the most versatile. I waste veggies by not being able to have them everyday. And that makes them expensive.
I am use to having meat about once a week. I am a lentil and rice gal. I make may own bread. Whole wheat, bran, and flaxseed bread. I have peanut butter (organic), 1/2 tablespoon with my bread every morning.
How do I gain my weight? I gain 5 to 15 lbs when I have to take steroids. If it is in the hospital, I gain 25 to 40 lbs. ( It makes you want to kill for food when I give you large amount of steroids IV every four hours. )
Oh and yes, I love to bake. True I love to give my baked goods away. But I love to eat them also. Yes, I love ice cream. I miss olive oil the most.
I have to figure out how much and how long this diet will take. And how I will live with it. Or how to adjust it to my life.
