DIET is a 4- letter word

i was inspired by the al-hamra meal to go on a middle eastern diet. this would consist of copious amounts of meat, bread, milk, dates, nuts, exotic spices & condiments, as well as (shock, horror) veggies. this is the plan:

1. brekkie- goat's milk, bread with hummus/other veggie thingys
2. lunch- bread, meat, other veggie thingys
3. dinner- meat, other veggie thingys
4. snacks- dates, nuts, milk, etc.
5. desserts- UMALI

of cos i would need to walk the equivalent of crossing a desert/ taking the goats out to pasture/ drawing water, etc, etc in between these heavenly meals. otherwise i don't think i'll lose any weight. yes, i'm going into this plan in order to lose weight while enjoying my food. i'm hoping the presence of the veggie thingys will help. you can tell i didn't think this through properly.

i could always go on the diet that kavi recommended:

1. don't eat. or if you must, do it sparingly. who needs food?
2. smoke instead.

i don't smoke. and i don't have the discipline to say no to food. i'm sorry. looks like i'm gonna continue to look 3 months (only a few weeks, according to lian yi) pregnant. the price i pay.
