Hey, you should take a look,,, how often do you get, "the Monk himself wrote"
Spirit of Light
Be who ever you want
Well i know many monks and spoken about this topic with them a lot, And from the scriptures we have it does not seem to say Buddha Sakyamuni was a fat person, As far as scriptures say, he eat very modest and would probably walk from town to town a lot so he would not gain that much weight.
No almond milk? I didn't notice nuts on your list of foods.
Spirit of Light
Be who ever you want
Water is my main fluid and yes i will be adding things to the list, And nuts is something i will add.

Carrots
Radish
Spring onions
Red onions
Sun-dried tomato
Tomatoes
Paprika
Broccoli
Cucumber
Avocado
Apple
Orange
Banana
grapes
Blueberry
Raspberry
Strawberry
Kiwi
Peas and beans

Replace rice with brown rice and remove the corn will help. Coarse whole grain products replace the corn.

Yes
the list is in progress, and i am aware of there are some items that missing But thank you for the advice
I like when people do give advice
Is that mortadella? Damn, you just added something else to my *food i miss* list. Not had a mortadella sandwich for almost 4 years.
On the plus side, last nights dinner was pasta penne with home made pesto sauce (much better than shop bought), chunks of mozzarella thrown in and shaved parmigianino on top, then grilled until the cheese browned.

Try wild rice, its rice with flavour
Mushrooms and tomatoes. See if you can get different varieties rather than the supermarket flavourless ones?
Same with carrots and beans

Thank you.
Yes not far from where i live there is a huge vegetable marked with a lot of different fruits and vegetables that are organic made, with no chemicals sprayed on. so i already use this place for my vegetarian lifestyle, But when going Vegan it will be even more to study to get enough of everything my body will need
Damn, being a big nut i should have thought to mention you should add nuts to your diet
We live in walnut country, late September and October i always gather fallen nuts from the paths i walk. I usually wind up with enough to last until next walnut season.
And walnut liqueur is to die for but quite alcoholic.
Spirit of Light
Be who ever you want
Yes Nuts is a part of my diet, i just forgot to add it to the list
Trying to get some nuts every day, but i can probably get even better on it.
In that pic: Salamis, mortadella, smoked bacon (pancetta), ham

Someone trying to get me back to eating meat
Just kidding, that's not going to happen
