Stuffed Portobello mushrooms
And i decided to stuff them - i didnt have any ground pork at hand (tried normal white mushrooms stuffed with pork before and loved it) so i used some "frikadeller" a danish meatball instead
Ground 2½ frikadeller with the mini chopper
added 2 tblspoons of cottage cheese
plus 2-3 white mushrooms
and minced it all up
then i peeled the portobello and drizzled them with oil and seasoned with fresh ground pepper and salt
slapped them in the oven for about 15 minutes untill the stuffing started turning goldenbrown
tasted really great
New PAGG starts today
It's supplied by Pareto Nutrition you can find a link for them in the sidebar (you possibly need to disable adblock to see it)
But I have high hopes for these, I heard they shouldnt give you acid reflux like the ones I used last month from HealthSpark plus there's only 1 pill per meal instead of 2
But I will report back when I've tried them out for week or so
Waste of money - and clarification
It only goes up to 199kilo's - and im 225
So thats $45 i wont see again.. because i cant send it back, it would cost just as much as buying a new one
It's stuff like this that makes me lose hope, and make me feel like i want to give up
By the way, there seemed to be a misunderstanding when i asked for a helping hand with clothes the other day.. i didnt mean "hey buy me vacation clothes" i mean - i still need new clothes for exercise - i would just love to get a t-shirt and a pair of shorts before i go on vacation, so i can use it on my vacation as well as when i get home and pick up my exercise again
"Hey how can you afford a vacation?" this vacation has been in the planning for a long time, even before i thought about changing my lifestyle - and i had some help paying for it, but give me a break - its the first ever vacation im going on that isnt related with a school-trip..
I'm going to Turkey with 5 friends.. the only other place i have been was Prague with the community college like 5-6 years ago

No breakfast? YOU ARE INSANE!
Skipped breakfast today, didn't really feel hungry at all, but had a nice bowl of reheated chop suey for lunch..
Bought some new oil today instead of the grapeseed I have now, only reason is.. it was 4 bucks cheaper
Got canola oil because its just as healthy as other oils, doesn't really have any flavor and its hella cheap
Right now I'm boiling some veggies and serving it with some of those spicy beef rolls I've used before

Random blurbs
made more chop suey today since its easy and its what i had at hand
used same method as last night
im not going for a walk tonight, and didnt last night either since i busted my foot on sunday's walk and its still sore
I really wanted to get a pair of shorts and a new t-shirt for my vacation to Turkey next month, EDIT: what i mean is i've asked for clothes to work out in, fx. in my /r/Assistance post on reddit and i would like some new clothes before my vacation (already payed for) so i culd use it both for my vacation and my work outs
but i cant afford it, so if someone feel they could afford to help me out (the clothers is ofc also meant as something i can work out in), theres a few t-shirts and shorts on my Amazon wishlist or the site http://bigteeshirt.co.uk has some fairly priced stuff
Amazon should auto-fill my address but if you find stuff on another site and need my address comment or email me at dummiesworld@hotmail.com
I've also thought about my cheatday.. i need to restructure it - ive been gorging too much, fx. last saturday i had bread and cereal for breakfast, pasta for lunch and a pizza for dinner.. snacks was a bag of chips, an energy drink and a cheeseroll
So i'm thinking 1 cheatmeals, 2 at the max and 1 snack

Wok you 2! The chop suey sequel
But to the suey!
Started the wok of at low heat, last time I burned the curry paste and ruined the wok (I returned it for a new one) and slowly increased the heat while mixing the curry & oil
Added 2-3 tblspoons of oil, a tblspoon of Massaman curry paste and stirred it until it was dissolved and looked like sauce
Then I added the meat and cooked it through and got it all covered in the curry mix
I now added the veggies
Half a bag of chop suey mix
A large handful of white beans
50-100 grams of grated Chinese radish (daikon)
2 teaspoons of soy sauce
I let it all cook through and then added a deciliter of water with half a beef stock cube and half a chicken stock cube dissolved in it
Let it all simmer and reduce until there is very little "sauce" left
I must say the radish/daikon tasted a lot better grated instead of the big chunks
Time for change
I've gained 4 pounds in two days, although 2 of them was from cheatday its still too much.
So I'm cutting down portion sizes, atleast when it comes to meat and eggs. So from now on only 2 eggs in the morning instead of 3, less meat when doing stirfry's, about 200 grams lasted me two meals before, I want it to last 3
As a result of this my breakfast omelet was a bit smaller than usual, but beefed it up with lots of mushrooms and beans.
If you have any thoughts on this or any tips, please leave a commen or email me at dummiesworld@hotmail.com

Oh hello there
Totally forgot to post this morning
Gained 2 pounds from cheat day but as always that's to be expected
Had a great breakfast omelet today, mushrooms chicken sausages and beans as so often before, but today I added a crushed clove of garlic and half a fresh red chili, it was amazing
Right now I'm having leftovers from Fridays wok experiment for dinner
