Whatcha eating today VSGers...Saturday!!!

It's another glorious Saturday here in southern Maryland!  I went to the farmers market and got lots of green things - asparagus (probably the last for the year), green onions, cucumber, zucchini, radishes, parsley, and small tomatoes.  I love market season although I'm really having to be wiser in my choices now that I'm sleeved!  I don't have that much room for veggies and I can't just eat veggie leftovers for breakfast and lunch anymore as I've done in the past.  Sad times!  

I'm having issues with my stomach recently and I'm 99% sure it's due to low stomach acid.  Aside from my leftover sushi for first meal, I'm going to stick to shakes today since food has not been a rewarding experience.  I'm hoping that a few days of detox from my PPI will do the trick to fix things, otherwise I've got some Betaine HCl which is supposed to help.

Ex: Lots of walking today in the park with the girls (my dogs :), and took my mom grocery shopping, but nothing structured.

I love that you had so much salmon today.  A few years ago I went to Norway for two weeks and made it my mission to eat salmon every single day.  I succeeded.  :D  I get to go back for a wedding next year and can't wait to eat ALL THE SALMON.  

How lucky for me that Whole Foods offers really yummy, fresh, beautiful salmon sashimi in WLS-sized packaging? Talk about the perfect meal!

I adore cooked salmon, too, just about any way you can make it, but especially grilled.

I hope you'll remember me when you're in Norway and thinking about people to bring gifts to when you get home ;)
