[Astrid]

lol gluten makes me ill...

But I was sort of making myself ill on purpose, for not doing well in my exam. lol

Oh, so you're punishing yourself with gluten. :o You shouldn't do that. :rolleyes:

Thankyou :)

The thing is, you don't have to have the regime I do to make a difference. Even going for a 20min walk everyday will change your body if it's more than you're doing now.

If you eat a healthy vegan diet (wholegrains; no refined sugar/flour; complex carbs; no added fats, natural fats like nuts, avocado etc; no caffeine; no junk; a little processed food as possible; plenty of fruit, veg, nuts and seeds) you can eat as much as you like and you'll be fine.

[Astrid]

Breakfast: Banana, 1/2 avocado, gluten free bun, glass of OJ

Lunch: Leftover soup, mango & kiwi fruit salad, glass of chocolate soy milk

Snack: Dark chocolate

Dinner: More soup, small mixed salad, stick of celery

Snacks: A clementine, potato chips, trail mix (cashews, walnuts, brazil nuts, almonds, hazel nuts, pistachios, raisins and dried papaya)

I ate a lot of fruit today.

that's a lot to me! ;) - i did get a free lunch at a workshop this week but i don't really count that :D - otherwise, last time I ate out was May 2006 :o.

[ellaminnowpea]

Do you count eating out as having coffee/ snack from a shop or sitting down for a meal? If its sitting down to eat a meal, its been a while for me - maybe since december. It was when my supervisor so kindly took me to a vegan pizza place for my last week of my internship last semester. :) But the restaurants suck in this town so I haven't gone out to eat this semester with the exception of getting food from the restaurant at which I work.
