Slices carved from roast turkey (not cold cuts)
Black beans with shredded cheeeeese on top*
Chilled asparagus and almond "salad" with some fresh-ground pepper
I managed to get this at the cafeteria in our building. Yay me! I think it involved every permissible food they had in the whole place except the mushrooms.
I am trying very hard not to think about the group that went out for dosas today. For months I'd tried to get people interested in going for dosas, and now, on day 2 of my being unable to eat pretty much anything South Indian, they all go. Grump. But I'm not thinking of that; I'm eating my yummy asparagus. Right? Right.

i've been on the diet for i can't even remember how long... a month? more? and today was the first time i was confronted with bread without going it to full-on crave mode.
so far i've lost 7.5 pounds, most of it in the first 10 days.

My cravings haven't been bad, oddly enough. Perhaps it's because for a long time I've tried to eat refined carbs in moderation -- well, moderation compared to the usual American diet! Maybe I just don't have all that much yeast in my body to begin with. (I've heard more than one source say that if you've got a systemic yeast infection, that will give you (more?) cravings! Clever yeastie beasties.)
However, I *do* get frustrated when I think of things I want to eat -- pesto, for example, or a Cajun spicy dip I know of -- and I can't for the life of me think what to put it on. No pasta or pizza for the pesto. No carrots or pretzels to dip, I hate broccoli and am decidedly lukewarm about cauliflower, and what the heck else do people dip in things?
Wow, that's a bunch of weight for ten days. I wonder how much of it was microscopic dead bodies of yeast. I haven't been weighing myself, but I haven't changed size yet, so for now I don't care. If this makes me go shopping I will be ticked off. :-)
