Food Diary

This week I’ve been sick and have been on a homemade chicken broth soup diet to get better, luckily my moms cooking is pretty good, so I don't mind it. But I basically had to eat soup for lunch and dinner, and I rarely eat breakfast in the morning. My body doesn't like eating early in the morning, when I do I feel really bloated as if I stuffed my self purposely. And I personally don't like to feel like that especially when I’m still tired. But when I do ear breakfast it's like a banana or a yogurt, but this week I had neither because I didn't have any bananas and I can't eat pudding or yogurt or anything dairy, because that'll give me more phlegm at least that’s what my mom says. In the past 48 hours I’ve eaten a lot of food sadly, when I was out of my house I couldn't take a picture of it because I do not have a camera phone and my camera is a film, and I had finished my last roll three days ago. But I have a few home pictures of soup, bread, orange juice, and fever food basically. When my cold/fever was a bit more active every time I ate soup I felt the spiciness and heat of the soup in my throat, which had a little sting to it, but the spiciness neutralized the sore throat a bit. I felt a little better because I was a bit hungry, from not wanting to eat all I wanted to do was sleep, in order to make myself feel like I got better each time I woke up. When I ate soup at school I’d buy little saltine cracker boxes to eat with the soup, I like a little crunch when I eat sup, it makes my food taste more satisfying. When I ate soup at home I ate bread with it, pita bread, or a bagget. And after 7:30 8 o’clock I don’t eat after because after I eat a big dinner I don’t normally get hungry unless I stay up really late, and eat a little snack, like make myself a sandwich or something, but because it’s been a school night and I’ve been sick I haven’t done that. Today (Friday, October 1, 2010) because I felt a lot better I did the usual things, I got a small green tea no sugar at this bagel shop on 23rd between 5th and 6th on my way to school, at lunch I went to bravos and ate a spinach roll, which comes with 3 garlic knots, and a fountain drink mine was seltzer, and afterschool when I stopped home I had a bowl of cheerios, nothing is better than breakfast for dinner, and some tamarinds.. And that is basically my 48-hour food experience, here’s a more detailed list that I had written down.
