Scientific research has shown that writing a food journal/diary or taking pictures of food can actually help dieters stay on task and lose weight. I’m not really trying to lose weight–I’m actually trying to gain the five pounds I lost while studying over the past 3 months. And since I’m back in California, I figure I could probably eat real food instead of eating Tiger Milks and drinking Myoplex (PROOTEEEEIIINNNN) to gain back my muscle (don’t laugh too hard now). So here goes:
Dear Good Fatty, Bad Fatty,
I’m so glad I can confide my secrets within your pages; today I’ll tell you what I’ve been devouring all week.
Friday: soondubu and barbecued animal flesh at Ko Hyang Tofu House in San Gabriel
Saturday: 2 Beard Papas, 2 sausages from Wurstkuche, and chiles en nogada from La Cabanita in LA (I also had a 40 and some margaritas that night)
Sunday: short rib has breakfast from City Park in Pasadena, two bowls of shio ramen from Santouka, and two mulitas from La Taquiza in LA
Monday: old mulita from La Taquiza, asparagus san yan from China Bistro, and two double doubles from In-N-Out, beer and chocolate
Tuesday: pho from May’s Cafe, sandwich from Von’s, Sweet Tomatoes (salad, pasta, bread, four bowls of soup, brownie, ice cream) for dinner
Wednesday: toast for breakfast, bowl of rice, chicken, and radishes from home, and two tacos from Robertito’s for lunch
I still haven’t barfed, so I must not be eating enough. I’ll try to step it up. Thanks for listening, diary. You’re my best friend.
James! you were in LA/PASADENA and didn’t tell me?!
