Daily Log

Breakfast: 1/2 of a banana, 1 lb. of grapes

Lunch: some cooked food - I kept it vegan and 801010 though!

Snack: 1 cantaloupe, 3 bananas, juice of 1 lemon

Dinner: hubby said he needed a Denny's fix: so I ordered the seasonal fruit plate and the garden salad with lemon wedges as the dressing for myself. Not bad. The fruit plate was about 1/4 cup of red grapes, 4 strawberries and an apple. The salad was iceberg lettuce, red cabbage, cucumber slices, grated carrot, onion slices and grape tomatoes.

Total Calories: 1379

Water: 2 quarts plus

Sleep: 6 hours maybe?

Exercise: 1 hour of FREE yoga! August is Yoga month, apparently. Found out about free classes through meetup.com

Feeling: lots of feelings today! I had some emotions come up in yoga this morning - I felt that I had "emotional poise" to deal with it. Then tonight I felt a bit sad that my hubby wanted to go to Denny's. I make him healthy low fat vegan (cooked) meals. He likes them, but they are not going to taste as good as food from a restaurant such as Denny's because I don't add MSG and fat when I make food at home! So he had to get his "fix". I started getting sad that the world has so many problems and I don't know how to fix them and it is probably impossible to fix them. And I have to live in a meat eating world with a meat eating husband and people in this world can be so antisocial and just mean in general. Sometimes I want to make a difference in the world. I suppose I am by choosing to eat a vegan diet. I just wish the world would be a better place sometimes. I also had some happy feelings. I am happy that when I cheat now, I eat cooked vegan food instead of raw vegan food. That is really great, in my opinion!

I just had to let them sit around for literally 1-2 months before they were finally ripe (similar to plantains). After that they were great!!

Comment by banana - boy on August 14, 2012 at 7:28am: yeah i have noticed the same with a few of TJ bananas most are awesome but a few ripen poorly and i compost them. I chose to work on myself and not to get to involved in issues of this world where it only serves to depress if something can be done do it if not no good in worrying about it..i agree with rick we can set the example. we can do that. the world in a way does not not rest on our shoulders .....nice post

Comment by rick on August 13, 2012 at 2:03pm: Sounds like the red bananas I had before. Real small and starchy. As for the worlds problems just stay on the path you are on. People watch others and their higher self responds when the witness people walking the walk. I passed out many copies of forks over knives at work, talked about food to ever would listen, talked about working out, animal rights etc....... Sometimes out of the blue someone comes up to me and asked about a health issue or tells me they ate a lot of fruit and look all happy it makes me feel good when others try and you never know what positive effect you have on others. You sound like a really good person. I liked reading your blog

Comment by Delight on August 12, 2012 at 5:40pm: Oh yeah, and I forgot to mention that I got some weird bananas from Trader Joe's. They are not yellow and they are not green. They are sort of brown/ gray. They started to get some spots, so I thought they were ripe, but nope. They were okay, but my mouth could tell they were still starchy. So not optimal.
