Tuna Steak with Stringbeans

So instead of Talapia I tried a Tuna steak. I marinated it with Teriaki sauce and Wasabi before cooking it. I put it in the microwave with string beans for about 4:30, which I think was about :45 to long.

Next time I will try it at 3:30 and make sure the beans are around the fish and not ontop. I also had some brown rice with it.

272.8

Weight is creeping slightly down after holding for a few days at 274. I think the issue was that I had gone back to drinking Diet Coke at work instead of water. So yesterday I went back to water.

In addition I took a 40min or so walk along the beach before work today, so we will see if that helps. I would like to be at 269 by Friday.

274 (Still)

Ate way too much over shabbat, weight stayed about the same. Will go back to really healthy eating today and see how the week goes.

Fish with Sun Dried tomatoes and olive paste

One of the problems I have is that I live in Israel and my Hebrew is not very good. So I sometimes end up buying the wrong thing, when I don't bother to parse out a label. I had intended to get Pesto but ended up with Olive Paste from the store. Well olives have a lot of flavor and I like them, so I mixed it with Sun Dried Tomatoes and spread it over the fish. (Same fish as last time) and let it sit for about an hour in the fridge.

2:30 in the microwave, it came out great.

Rules for lunch

OK so my lunch sets the tone of my eating, so I think I need to come up with some rules

Lunch must be:


  • Hot
  • Good (no time for bad food)
  • Not fried or oily
  • Filling 
  • balanced 

(I will probably add to this)

274

Not sure how, but was down to 274 this morning

Steamed Broccoli

Turns out that frozen Broccoli steams very well, with a bit of water and 4 minutes on high, it comes out bright green and not at all mushy. I added a spash of soy sauce as well.
