Attack phase

Goodness folks as much as I love chicken and fish, just not too sure how am I going to handle all the meat for so long. I eat love seafood and chicken, but cooking with no oil? And only meat and dairy and oat bran which I thankfully found in Mumbai. Try the food hall in Phoenix mall, it's got at least this. 


Now forget the fromage frais or the quark. It's not available. I did find some ricotta cheese which had low fat content there though. I googled on how to make quark and voila....very easy. Just put buttermilk and ferment the milk. It's our very own dahi, but try and make it with buttermilk and at a medium temp. I made mine fairly easily. 


 Now Delhi was a debon low fat paneer paradise, but Mumbai...goodness you just get malai paneer everywhere. Yup so I guess, buy skimmed milk and make it at home. Doesnt taste half as yummy as what I remember of debon though. 


 Day 1 - a sat I took an off. Ate chicken sausages from madam perizaad zorabian and splenda tea and took off shopping. Ate yucky paneer as a snack as I was hungry at 12 and the at 2 binged on tandoori pomfret with no oil at gazali...yumm. The evening passed on easily because of diet coke. Turkey ham and ricotta cheese. At night it was lemon garlic prawns and of course milk which I just put some turmeric in and boiled. I find that ok in the absence of any other mixer. Waiting for cruise am going to freak out on fat reduced cocoa. 


 Day 2 - Morning yay weight was down by 500gms. Now how's that for motivation. Thankfully a Sunday so not work...again had my oat bran pancake and chicken sausages. Had buttermilk and some chicken or something for lunch. Frankly do not remember. Dinner was fish and so that I love. 


 Day 3 - yay weight down by another 500 gms. Suspicious now...it could be water. Now this was a tough day. Work n all. Ate a nice pancake and sausages for breakfast. Had diet coke at 12 and reshmi kebab with no oil from papa pancho yummy..evening was easy turkey ham and ricotta.( guilty I think this may not really be allowed. Have googled how t make quark). Tandoori chicken for dinner. Folks it did have oil. I soaked as much in tissue as I could. Let's see. My problem now is that I think I am not limiting to 1kg of dairy products a day and the oil in the tandoori chicken was a no no. 


 Folks all this meat am feeling a little constipated. So took kayam churna at 2 am. The senna leaves really worked. I googled on ingredients but since it's just herbs, hopefully will not impact. Let's see tomorrow
