Talk about luck. My wife's sister's family came to visit us this weekend to celebrate my birthday, my nephew's birthday, an my wife's twin sisters' birthday--all of which fall in this month--and, of course, that meant a nice big Mokichi dinner in our future. From the day of our first indulgence, I hoped and hoped my final indulgence, my final golden key on the PCP, would show up in time.
It did! So, here is my super-duper final PCP indulgence, at Mokichi, of course.
First, a veggies, seafood, and ham plate!
Next, some chilled avacado soup! Man, I love avacadoes.
Next, another thinly-sliced ham and veggie dish, with cheese!
My first beer since I started the PCP.
Some fried onion wedges, some four-types of cheese pizza, and some fried chicken. There was also a piece of Margarita Pizza with this (not shown). Objects in the picture below are smaller than they appear. ;-)
Some nice mushroom cream sauce spaghetti.
And finally, a piece of baked cheese cake.
All this food was shared, I didn't eat a single whole plate of anything--save the cheesecake. That said, this was one sweet meal! I know we were supposed to have something we really loved, or used to love, but I just wanted to eat with my family without worry as we celebrated my nephew's birthday. Thanks PCP, great timing!
No, it's not my birthday yet--not until next week. This was just our early family celebration. However, when I started the PCP, I thought I would have to miss my family birthday dinner this year, or at least postphone it. But, I guess I got to have my cake and eat it too!
Being healthy rocks!
More tomorrow, Sean
How did all that stuff sit in your stomach, especially the beer? When I had my first beer it gave me a terrible stomach ache.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a lot, but the portions were small--and like I said, everything was shared. I actually only ate two things on the first dish and half the avacado soup. The food looks big because of a lot of close up pictures. As for the beer, I balanced it with food, so aside from the smell of it in my sweat when I worked out the next morning, no ill side effects. As with my last visit to Mokichi, I got the runny dumps again, but other than that, I'm feelin' fine, and looking forward to my banana tonight with renewed enthusiasm. I should add though. I didn't sleep so well the night after this meal because my body was producing so much heat. Eat light, stay cool. That's the lesson here.
