VB6: Days 1-5 Meals

During my first 5 days, my meat intake has decreased incredibly!  I have one meat meal once a day - dinnertime.  My meat dishes weren't over the top indulgences, but I did enjoy going out to dinner multiple times this past week.

 For breakfast, snack, and lunch, I've had a combination of the following:
  • Oatmeal
  • Fruit
  • Veggie Stir-fry with brown rice
  • Fresh roasted red pepper hummus from the Cerritos Farmer's Market (I bought one container, I think I should have purchased more!  I can just eat this with veggies, spread in on a slice of bread, or add it to my sandwiches)
  • Salad
  • Roasted Veggie sandwich 
  • Chickpea Ratatouille

My dinners the last 5 days:
  • Rascal's Garden Salad with half a serving of grilled teriyaki chicken and brown rice. 
  • The Boiling Crab: Shared 1 lb of shrimp, 1/2 lb sausage, and catfish 
  • Yasai Japanese Grill: Garden Salad and grilled chicken and brown rice
  • Garden Salad with tangerines and a 2 veggies kabobs (muchrooms, zucchini, onions)
  • 2 Homemade fish tacos (seasoned fish, cabbage, and spicy fresh salsa)

2 Nights I had dessert after dinner:
I think the best part of this regimen is that I don't feel so restricted.  The worst thing that I can think of so far is going out with friends and having nothing vegan or vegetarian-like to eat.  The next best thing I can do is use my best judgement to select the healthiest option.
