You’re all going to be so jealous when you see my dinner tonight. Yes, I know I’m a good cook . . and Vince is a lucky man to have me for a wife . . and yes, we eat weird foods.
Dinner
In the bowl — avocado and tomatoes with balsamic, olive oil, sun dried tomatoes and basil. On the saucer .. one little sardine. Can you believe there are only 4 measly little fish in a can of sardines these days? Vince was going to split them with me . . 2 each but I was a nice wife and gave him 3 and I took 1. We do like sardines!
Vince had a real salad but I was still full from lunch. He said “Can we have fish on this diet?” I was thinking . . sure, but I don’t have fish thawed. Then he said , . let’s have sardines. I just don’t think of sardines in the same terms as “dinner” and “fish” but that was our dinner and I enjoyed it and am satisfied.

Ok, never mind. I don’t like fish. But the rest of your meals on this diet have looked great!!
Teresa says
I am eating this same way and I cannot believe how many times I am not hungry during “normal” meal times. I almost never snack in between anymore. I used to be ravenous every single hour of the day. Now, I might have a small piece of chicken or fish for dinner, with a handful of cherry tomatoes.
Phyllis says
Are you really not hungry? We eat pretty healthy food at our house, but I think I would starve with that. I know my husband would really balk. What type of “diet” are you doing?
JudyL says
Really not hungry. I had planned to have just an orange for dinner. We had a big lunch . . too big.

We’re doing the Dr Oz Rapid Weight Loss Diet, and your meal would be perfect for us, too! I’m going to have to remember that salad! Thanks! 🙂

I used to get a can of sardines in my Christmas stocking. My dad and I would split it – there were TONS of sardines in there. We’d put them on Ritz crackers with a slice of hard boiled egg. My Mom put an end to that once we learned about cholesterol!!
Sherrill says
Um..gross. I can hardly believe I used to eat sardines on crackers with my dad when I was a kid. Now, not so much..gross. LOL
Jane says
wow! What did you have for lunch!
Susan Fields says
If you eat less at your evening meal you will also sleep better…..

Our local food coop newsletter reported last month that the sardine fisheries in British Columbia collapsed this year. The boats went out and could not find any sardines.
