First time "eating out" today - went with the family to the Soy Cafe around the corner for lunch. Had the "tofu hamburger" set which was quite tasty. Came with a "daikon" (Jpnse radish) salad, miso-soup, brown rice, okara (another soy extract) and small piece of carrot cake. Felt quite surfeited afterwards -ended up giving the cake (which was the size of my thumbnail anyway) - to my 2 1/2 year old who loved it. A bit embarrassing, but all this vegetable eating with beans etc. left me feeling like a methane tank all afternoon ("natural gas" as I tell my wife). Hopefully just a transitory condition...will need to ask Patrick "off-line."
Solution for dips - discovered the wrought-iron chairs on my balcony work quite well. Got in three sets while I was washing the deck with the kids in the pool. Made it to my hot yoga class for 75-mins this afternoon - a nice stretch to finish the weekend. felt good that the sweat was all natural, i.e. not the beer from the night before.
Dinner - more tofu, one-third -bowel of brown rice and Claudia's tuna, avocado and tomato salad - thanks for the recipe! Also learnt out to use the body-fat counter on our bathroom scale -a whopping 21.5% - oh well, only one way to go from here. -RP
