MWL: 9/10 (didn’t preload at 2 am)
My time with my family went really well. I stuck with the MWL foods and walked every day. The only places I fell short in following the guidelines was that I didn’t always preload and, although I included fruit and vegetables at every meal, it wasn’t always 50/50. The pea soup turned out to be the perfect food to take with me. It made it really easy to put together a meal. My mom liked it too and I left the last of it with her. There’s an Asian market in their area and I had a good time browsing around all of the unfamiliar products and beautiful produce. I bought some red chili paste, plums, Japanese sweet potatoes, kohlrabi, and some really fat carrots. I wasn’t adventurous enough to buy anything that I didn’t know what it was, maybe next time.
The red chili paste has a good flavor but super spicy. A little goes a long way.
