Vegetables. And lots of them.

For those few who have voiced concerns that I must be going hungry at having cut meat and dairy from my menu or that I'm on some silly "diet". This is part, only part, of what I ate for lunch today.

{The lemon is a standard sized lemon just there to show you the size of the bowl}

In the bowl:
1 medium carrot
1 medium zucchini
1 squash
5 medium mushrooms
half a head of broccoli
a handful of sugar snap peas

I added them to the red curry paste I had slightly sautéed and boiled with a can of coconut cream. I let them get just slightly soft then spooned the whole lot onto some fresh singapore noodles. Delicious Vegetable Laksa. Yes, I ate the lot.

And dinner tonight is a huge container of salad to take to TAFE.

I am not going hungry. I am not starving myself. I am not on a crazy diet. I am eating the food my body needs for health and wellbeing. And I'm shopping for swimwear with confidence for the first time in years.

Eat your veggies today!
