Eating, eating... Enjoy Eating but with Moderation...

Assalam..
While waiting for Hb doing the Acupuncture last Friday...1/2 grande cup of coffee at Starbucks sipped through my throat after a long craving of that drinkkkk. Aah! nikmat sungguh, never tasted so good!! God help me! let it stay as my social drink. The dessert that was displayed looked so good and made me hungry for Carbs and sugar...Can't helped myself looking and wishing to grab and eat them. Huish! God knows how I love bread, pastry and cakes...huhu. Calming myself  *sigh* not that I had to starve myself for the whole of my life...*wink*
It's about time I should gradually take a bite of carb...a bite? Not get overboard with the guideline laa...  Anyways, my diet still the half cooked vegetables and a little Carb. When I was out vegetables my first choice.

 At Mamak's..
Adding some proteins like fish, chicken and beef. Tho, sometimes the potato family i dearly missed.. they are high in starch or carbohydrates. Redho lah..it's not something that I rugi kalau tak makan.

 My homecook, I had them with a little Basmati rice..

Roast Beef I had prepared for dinner yesterday only for the kids..my eldest son who came back early from his training enjoyed it very much.

While..
Hb and me had a Dinner date...Hmm, okay la, Hotel food is not to my liking. Since I had controlled after all this time and treated myself  just a little of my favorite.

And Tuesday, we were  in Bangsar at Hb's X office to settle some things..and had lunch in Bangsar Village. It's was late almost 2.30 pm,...I could even eat a horse. Should I get a little reward on Carbs ??? hehe..  eat less carbs and if possible slow down on Sugar.

At Citrus

We ordered 3 kinds of different menus. I had two spoon full of Olio Pasta, Oooh! it's so tasty, yum yum... or maybe because it was my first pasta after many weeks. Aah! I am not cheating ehh!
Gosh! everything seemed to be tasty!!
The seafood platter was nice and also the Kebab..semua laa sedap!!

So..
 
I had this shredded vegetables with walnut and hard boiled egg this morning...Tak sedap! but something to fill my tummy after a fiesta of food I had recently.

And..

We had Basmati rice for lunch with gulai lemak and fried taugeh with taufoo.
