A lot of times i make a big salad, with half a bag each of plain cut up lettuce and one of those fancy mixes with nuts and dried fruits and brussell sprouts and kale and stuff. Then i add fat free feta cheese and briannas poppy seed dressing, i dont like the dressing in the bags, they seem weird to me. Anyway you chew on this for half an hour, then you can have some meatballs or stg solid after. I was NEVER a salad eater, but i figured out a way to make one that i liked. I did veg and hummus for a while too. Steam the veg in the microwave for a minute - it smells like grass! That always struck me funny. Im so easily amused.
Breakfast at HGI can vary, mostly containing scrambled eggs, potatoes, and meat either by itself or in breakfast burritos/quesadillas, and on Fridays the F&B manager likes to mix it up with bread pudding and steamed or sauteed veggies or new recipes she tests on us before she serves it to the guests like breakfast enchilada casseroles which was amazing, but it is high in protein which I need to work hard and most of the time it tides me over until dinner.

What is STG? You said that about exercise but in this response you referred it to vegetables.

I have been craving vegetables for the past couple weeks, and I don't think I've been getting enough fiber as several times in the past week and a half I've spent 20 minutes on the toilet constipated. I'd really like to eat more cooked tomatoes by themselves, which I have been craving the most, but not sure how to prepare them. I was thinking of just grabbing a can of tomatoes and frying/sauteing them on a pan, but that seems a little silly.
