yo quiero green!

last night's dinner @ green: a quinoa burrito! quinoa, beans, avocado, cashew cheese, organic spinach and sprouts all wrapped in a jumbo whole whole wheat tortilla.





of course i would pick the most fattening foods on the menu 2 days in a row! this burrito was surprisingly delicious! it was no habaneros (my favorite burrito eatery), but i enjoyed it just the same! it was filling and really hit the spot. even the garden salad was delicious. i'm a bit picky and...well, let's just say weird about my food- i don't like my food touching each other (call me crazy, this i know). anyway, everything in my salad was strategically placed making me a very happy girl! :)

so, i've decided while i'm gathering all my info on my becoming a raw foodist that maybe i should try pescetarianism first. i think probably a long while before i jump to the extreme. anyway, i'm going to try different foods and see what i like/dislike, see how my stomach handles these foods, etc before going full-out.

last night for dinner i had: a buffalo chicken sandwich w/chicken fried wheat meat dipped in buffalo sauce with lettuce and chipotle mayo on ezekial bread w/sweet potato fries!





it was yummy! put that in the "like" category! :)
not only was it delicious, but it was so convenient. i talked about the difficulties i would have in eating dinner because of my schedule but it was easier than i thought! i placed my order online, it was ready when i picked it up and it was on my way to class! i love green (that's the name of the restaurant by the way)!

what i love about mondays!

while most people hate mondays, i absolutely love them! for me, it's another chance at getting things right! let's forget about last week and put it in the past! forget about how i cheated on my diet and let's start working on improving it!

speaking of my diet...to make things only harder for me, i am debating on becoming a raw foodist. i read 'green for life' last night and became completely inspired. you may be thinking how am i going to do that if i can't even stay away from the sugar my dr banned, but i really think i can do it. it's time to stop complaining about my weight loss (or lack thereof) and actually do something about it. i need to start living a healthier lifestyle and i believe this is key.

i'm going to talk to my nutritionist on wed and in the mean time i will be doing more research on it. i'm not your typical vegetable enthusiast, so this is going to be tough. i do however think this is completely attainable if i take baby steps. only time will tell...
