Haha I loved the wisdom BOMB video on an indulgence day. Because believe me it was for me an indulgence DAY, not a meal! And believe me to in the fact that there wasn't much of wisdom in today's diet ! But hey I enjoyed it and that's what indulgences are for right?
First it's so funny to notice how the brain works. It's been 79-2 days that we are following a precise diet. During these 77 days, I hardly craved for anything. Maybe at the beginning but that's it. Everyday just seems to go by happily with my diet. Just today, I woke up and knew it would be my indulgence day. From 6am till now I have been, not craving, but willing to eat non compliant stuffs.
It started this morning when for the first time I decided to eat cookies. But I didn't want to kill my indulgence just like this so I made up a "Healthy Cookie Recipe". And you probably won't like it but I enjoyed it because still I was eating cookies.
So here you go:
Tofu - Kinako Cookies
Basically Tofu replace the butter
Kinako (Kinako powder that we find in Japan - now what is Kinako? I think it's beans but I'll let you guys ask Patrick, he should know better) instead of chocolate chips
Honey instead of sugar
Just the egg white and no yolk
I added some tea leaves for the taste
Basically, an almost PCP compliant cookie
How did it taste? Japanese "dokutoku na aji" => Japanese real taste,... a no taste taste. Like many of the traditional Japanese food. I liked it :)
Ok, so that was this morning at 9am.
Now, lunch, we are talking about the real one. I mean, what was supposed to be the real one today. It was clearly an indulgence. Was it a dramatic one? Not really,... The dramatic one came later. Just for you to have a quick look:
I am not really showing you for the food, but more for the colors. It's so pretty isn't it? Especially the first "amuse bouche" (now this sounds really posh but I am half french so I have to call a dog a dog).
Actually on the pictures you are missing two meals haha. The main, which was a french cod very good and some cheese. Yes well still my half french side. I realized I hadn't eaten cheese for something like 4-5 months (if you are not French or half French you cannot understand how unrealistic this is) and cheese is good, but just a little bit.
Anyhow, so I had this little corn soup amuse bouche, then the squid as appetizer. Then came the steamed cod (all this is pretty healthy). The unhealthy part was a bit of bread, a bit of cheese and the tiramisu. All in, an enjoyed indulgence, a full belly, a non sick me, a really satisfied me. Indulged but didn't go insane.
What's weird is those last three words,... didn't go insane. Then I started wondering why. Then, that's where the brain is funny, I started to convince myself that if I had to go insane it had to be today. I wasn't hungry at all or anything but around 6 I decided that I really wanted to make it a fully indulged day. So I had an ice cream with a piece of chocolate! And now, I am FULL like a triplets pregnant woman! Do I feel bad? Not really. I feel indulged, and that was the point.
Now clearly, I am going to force a bit on the workouts tomorrow. Even maybe tonight I will go for another round of skipping. Maybe it is useless, but I just feel like it. I made the most of the indulgence, now I need to make the most of the remaining 10 PCP days.
So well,... wisdom BOMB in my head,... yeah let's say that the 10min of the video are the my 10min wisdom of the day! The other 23h50 min - 1 hour workout were just purely indulgence!
Aaah, not sure whether I am feeling good or bad, I am just feeling it, and I think that's good!
Enjoy your indulgence team ! :)




Seems like good stuff! If you have to indulge go for the quality haha. (Not sure if that cookie seems tasty though...)
