The Plate

This is what I eat. Simple food, mostly Mediterranean, tended to one meal at a time. I started keeping this record in May 2026, the month I first visited Portugal and learned to eat sardines properly. I haven’t stopped. Sometimes I drift from the plan. Drift is normal. It happens to everyone and one time or another. Drift does not require shame. It requires awareness.

I know it’s the same day-to-day. Shredded wheat fruit nuts seeds. Add an egg slight caffeine and jasmine tea and water. Today’s fruit is peaches. Today’s nuts are almonds because I like them with peaches today seeds or Chia because they keep things moving. I do Chia every day just like water, but not as much!

Breakfast

Breakfast in a hotel. Shredded wheat, grass fed milk and a boiled egg I brought from home.
Orange juice and green tea from the breakfast bar. There’s also an apple for my pocket for later that came from the breakfast bar. I am recovering from drift. Travel is one of the things that often results in drift. I’ll write more about that later.
