Two mini breakfasts already!- ate 4 egg whites, a cup of coffee early in the morning, then picked up a pure protein bar, was still hungry- went for babybel light. Might make one more cup of coffee to stop the super hunger! I took an hour long walk last night in the neighborhood. May be that helped change the metabolism..

Oh, made this pilaf from Black rice last night. Had to present in a very beautiful manner to make sure everyone in the family at least stabbed their forks in it. Black rice + TVP + Biryani Spice mix + Pomegranate seeds on top + coriander served with a side of cucumbers and Fage yogurt. Everyone loved it, and wanted more. Black rice tastes better than the brown/white basmati.

You are very focused- I lose my focus when I am stressed/ over worked or I don't see results.
How are abs?

Oh, yesterday I made black bean and string cheese quesadilla with the Costco low carb tortilla. Out and out Costco recipe, and it was better than I had expected.. I was so hungry when I went home, but also determined to make something healthy than down a cup of coffee with whole wheat cookies..
 
You are a rock star, Homer! Your dedication is unbelievable.

My diet has gone to ache - ee - double hockey sticks. However, I've been going for walks 2x/day, M-F, for the last six weeks and will continue to for the rest of the school year. It doesn't seem to be doing a bit of good, though!

CZ, you're doing a good job! The Costco quesadilla is a good one. I like combining their products. We should make a Costco thread.

I have a weakness for buttermilk biscuits... I enjoy them with honey poured on top!! I wonder if I'm the only person that does that.

I did CZ, I like it but not as much as brown or white.. maybe its the texture??
 
Hehe. I have a funny story about "black rice".

A couple years ago, SoCal & Mr. SoCal dined at a fancy-schmancy restaurant. We only went there because we were given a gift card. It's not a place I'd have chosen on my own.

I ordered the "black rice".

It looked weird on the plate. I wondered what made the rice black. It didn't look like any black rice I'd ever seen. I read the menu a bit closer and realized it was white rice soaked in squid ink!  :o

We stopped for a hamburger on the way home.
