I’m feeling so sick I wanna throw up. I’ve been on a no-meat diet the past week or so because I’m supporting hubby’s cholesterol-free diet.
I sorta cheated today and bought pancit palabok from Red Ribbon. Halfway through the dish, I was feeling queasy already. Three quarters through the dish, I couldn’t take it anymore. I felt the oil swimming in my throat and head. Guilt and oil don’t mix very well.
I threw out the remains of the palabok and am now in Queasyland. The good thing is, this will keep me off meat and oily food for a long time, I’ll be thin! The bad thing is, I don’t know how long this queasiness will last.

Yuck, that doesn’t work. I feel worse. Oh well. This is what I get for eating those noodles.
The wonderful thing about going on a diet together is that you empathize with each other. I feel the difficulty as well of not getting to eat that fried milkfish that we both really like, or that crunchy bacon. And I would never even dream of eating those sausages while he eats his steamed veggies across me. That’s evil! So we stick it out together, get our grilled tuna kebabs and just laugh at how hard it is to eat healthy. We just imagine how thin we’ll be after we get used to this meat-free diet. That pulls us through even more!
