Signs of a 'cleaner' stomach.

Many of you who know us ( N and I, N and me, me and N, I and N ohhh I never quite know which one is right) are quite particular eaters.

Or rather, this 'pickiness' has been in place for the past say....4 years. N started on his oatmeal and manic exercise regime and lost about 10 kg, while I was still content eating bags of chips late at night, feet propped on the coffee table and watching the telly, and coping with the guilt the next morning :)

N amazingly disregarded his love for beef noodles, duck rice and practically all of the artery-clogging, heart-attack / diabetic inducing caloric rich foods and survived on his diet of yong tao foo / fish soup while we were out, while I started to feel EXTREMELY guilty about gobbling up a lard filled plate of char kuey teow / oyster omelette etc.

I didnt realise the pronounced effect of N's influence (or rather unintentional PRESSURE) on me till just recently, I had sweet sour fish rice for dinner. Bought from a typical coffeeshop, I would have savoured every ounce of the dish, and would usually proceed to finish up every bit of rice.

My first reaction to the takeaway was "Eaurghhh..."
"Oh well, I'll have to give it a go." (Since my mum bought it)

It was brimming with rice, and thick gooey MSG rich orangey tomato sauce spilled across most of it. I immediately scrapped off 2/3s off the huge mound of rice and proceeded to attack the fish fillets, of course having first scrapped away the sauce. eeyuk! And I couldn't even bear to eat much of the sauce-soaked rice.

I finished the meal, left with the huge mound of rice plus loads of the remnant sauce. I couldnt bear to sip anymore of the horridly salty mushroom soup prepared either. *brrr* Sometimes the huge load of fried food just makes me sick sometimes. Fried wedges, fried calamari. Too much of a "good" thing gets too much. :S

Even a recent meal of fish and chips left me feeling quite queasy in the tummy afterwards. Hmmm I used to LOVE deep fried food and would love to have an entire meal of fried stuff.. seeing the change in my appetite and diet... is a good sign I guess!

Although SG is supposedly a food haven, I can't possibly think past the few standard dishes in food courts that are healthy enough, and I get super bored when I can't decide what to eat. Ho hum...

fish soup. yong tau foo. fish soup. soup. wanton mee / minced pork noodles (ok not so healthy!), unagi bento, yong tau foo. fish. soup. soup. porridge. soup!!! o___o you get the drift.

So what else is there? Any recommendations? :D
I'm getting sick of my readings. Ahhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
