Red peppers are good. Not sure if I've ever had pea pods.
I'm so pathetically excited by the mandarin--I can toss a couple into my krav bag, some in my purse, and voila! Chewy juice.
Now I'm missing the ortanique--an orange/tangerine hybrid that's structurally more like an orange, and produces some amazing juice.
ita, I feel the same way about mandarins/clementines. Le YUM. Alas, I'm out right now. I wonder if I have anything remotely appealing and yet healthy...
I've found that a ruby red grapefruit long about 3:00 gives me a nice jolt for the rest of the day. So much so that I am a) down to 2 diet Cokes a day as opposed to 4 and b) down 7 lbs!
I can't eat grapefruit because of one of my meds. Phooey. I can, however, eat Trader Joe's freeze-dried mangoes. Mmmmm.
Go, Aimee!
I am stopping at TJs today to pick up dried mangoes, dark chocolate covered raisins and a bag of their dried cherry/blueberry blend for my post-op hospital snackage. I was told to eat a lot of fiber, so....
Ooh, dried cherries and blueberries together sounds fab.
Yesterday's Ellen show explained Kelly Preston's dress: John Travolta picked it out. No taste!!
ita convinced me to go eat a tangerine. It was good.
It really is helpful having a regular fruit dropoff at this job. They don't even have a candy/snack machine in this place.
I am like Matt wrt dieting. Trying to be moderate just ends up with me not dieting at all. Tthe trick, for me, is finding a way to be extreme enough to fit my psychological needs yet moderate enough to be something I can stick with long enough to get myself in a healthy range. Atkins worked well for me, but DH is convinced it can't possibly be healthy and freaking him out with my diet doesn't help with keeping me focussed. I'm trying something new starting today, actually.

I think pea pods are what I'm calling snap beans. Ditto on the red peppers.
Low-carb works really well for me, but I have to get into the mindset of No White Food Allowed At All. No allowances.
Judging by the scale, I should probably do that.
Shit I Didn't Say: Aw, never mind. It would be much too long a post.
