Wednesday Weigh-In 20110511

I love Chinese food. But when I saw my wife put together a recipe last week, I realized that I should avoid it. On the surface it would seem okay -- beef, vegetables and rice are all good things on the Blood Type Diet. But when I look more carefully, I realize that the sauce is nearly poisonous. It most likely has wheat, corn starch, food coloring, sugar or corn syrup, and flavor enhancers. From now on I may have to order the steamed dishes they offer for dieters.

The motivation behind this switch is not just to stick to the diet. It's to eliminate the reaction I get after eating the stuff -- the brain foggy stupor I sink into.
