fruit diet...failed attempt ;P

so so so...has anyone been inspired by the previous post to start the fruit diet??
i have but it remains a failed attempt.
let me give my 'reasons'.
first of all, there were not enuf variety of fruits to go around in the house for that purpose.
second, can anyone resist their mom's cooking?

i think the second question kills the diet plan. but anyway, i managed to do a bit of fruit eating on friday night and saturday.
it all started on friday night when i decided not to have dinner aka solid food because i had a filling meal for lunch. hence it was a big big apple for dinner and banana...big pisang emas. yummy.
and on saturday morning, i did not feel any hunger pang when i woke up. instead i felt light...as in not bloated. and i cheated on the diet plan...i had a cup of my instant coffee. then it was another banana and at mid morning, a big pear. i did not feel hungry at all and i actually felt good with my body.
but then came afternoon. the aroma of mom stir-frying those roast pork was unbearable. i told myself i was going to be strong and resist but in the end, the glutton side of me won. i took those roast pork with a bowl of stir fried vege dish. at night, it was a bowl of tofu fish soup.

learnt something about the body from this short tryout. the stomach started to feel heavy and bloated after taking meat. the light feeling i had is no longer here. i guess this diet is worth trying. mom was saying how unhealthy this diet was...and malnutrition came up. but today's paper encouraged ppl to eat more vege and fruits to discourage inflammation in the body. i think i need that.

i wonder whether the energy level will drop if u take this diet on working days. anyway, i am planning to bring lots and lots of fruits back this week. will have fruits in the afternoon instead of a rice meal. the caterer sends food to the house in the afternoon already now, so my soup is waiting for me when i get home from work. that should be enuf for the day. morning will be bread and butter and a cup of coffee.

so wait for my progress report.
