First problem was that my breakfast was so sweet to me, I couldn’t finish it – which resulted in a second problem – low blood sugar! I calculated how much insulin I would need to cover the breakfast (which was a lot by the way at 74 grams of carbs!) but if you don’t eat enough to match the insulin, it results in low blood sugar.
Around noon I could feel the sweat start, and sure enough, I was 42 and sinking. My first thought was to go get chocolate from our office candy dish, but then had a better idea:
Day 28 of 30 Day Shred is complete! I worked out with someone from the building next to ours – she saw us working out and asked to join in, so today we did level 1. And you know what?? It was easy! Well, easier than level 3 – and to think that 28 days ago I couldn’t do the whole thing without stopping!
Now on to lunch. Tofu noodles are not for everyone. I believe Hannah told me they tasted like worms when I had her try them once! There is an odd texture and “funky” smell to these noodles.
That being said I love them! It was kind of tricky because I don’t have a strainer at work (may have to stock that for the future!) because you really have to rinse these noodles off. If I were at home, I would have run them under cold water, then “towel dry” them with paper towels and then microwave for one minute.
It was the last of my Cincinnati Chili – lunch was delicious!

Okay, luckily I can type fast because lunch is almost over and I need to clean up my dishes. Come on back tonight for Cheese Ravioli with Classic Italian Meatballs!
And its BizTV again tonight – both Biggest Loser and American Idol – looking forward to Ron being kicked off and hearing Adam sing!
i love those noodles! my favorite way to eat them thus far is in a veggie stir fry. delish!
I really, really wanted to like those tofu fettucine noodles, prepared “Alfredo” ala Hungry Girl – but they set my teeth on edge. The texture was just soooooooo weirdly al dente, and not like good pasta al dente. I felt like I was eating… I dunno. Something inedible. I had such high high hopes! I am going to give them ONE MORE TRY and just drench them in a meaty tomato bolognese, and see if I can disguise them enough. Ah well…..
so glad that you liked the shirataki noodles…. I never rinse them… just throw the whole package to the sauce! Never felt any weird flavor! 🙂
Mmm Ravioli! I’ll need to make that for myself soon. I’ve been avoiding ricotta way too long for J’s sake.
ahhh you can never love baby spinach too much!
i’ve always been interested in those noodles but have never known how exactly to prepare them. your microwave method sounds like a good idea.
I really want to try those noodles! I’ll have to pick up a package soon! Glad you like them!!
Those tofu noodles are very hard to find. HungryGirl raves about them all the time, so I ordered them off Amazon.com once. I wasn’t a big fan, but I’m glad you like them. I think I didn’t cook them correctly.
I just found them yesterday! My husband said he’s not trying them 🙂
Also, I’m glad you thought of and could find some apple juice!
Now you’ve gone and got me curious about those tofu noodles! 🙂 I should try them at home and see if the kids like them.
Oh, looks delicious!!
i’ve never tried those tofu noodles – I’m too scared 🙂
I haven’t seen those tofu noodles by me yet but I do want to give them a try.
You’re almost done with your 30 day shred, how exciting!
