am i malnutritioned?

i must have taken a detour from the food pyramid in the past few years. i am so lost it's hard to be found. the route i have taken day in and day out started out by me disregarding a few sign posts along the way. now, taking wrong turnings have become a habitual part of journeying through the maze of proteins, fat and carbs. note that i didn't mention fibre and vitamins. oh yes, and the small but important minerals.

i am in such dire needs to be fed properly. i am eating absolute rubbish everyday. i hardly think the measly, requisite scraps of shredded, day-old spinach in my wan tan mee and the sad, brown strips of taugeh in my laksa count for anything in my daily requirements of vegetables. sigh...

my immediate remedy was to eat more economy rice (yucks). i have never ever deigned to even walk near any economy rice (mixed rice) counter in any coffee shop cos the food looks so undignified - mostly with a dried crusty layer of starch filled sauce on top, or reeking with recycled oil. need i say more. but in my quest to ingest some vegetables in my daily diet, i've tried to add some of those shiny green stuff they call vege into my white styrofoam box. it's so gross. i don't understand why they have to beat up and drown the poor vege in so much oil. did i miss the headlines where they decreed that oil is free now?

bleh.. anyway i don't think that's helping me eat healthily at all. it's probably also contributing to my continued, fatigued state. i am one of those fortunate people who get to sleep the required 8 hours a night. i sometimes stretch my luck to 9 or 10 hours a night. and yet i still feel fatigued the next day! there's something wrong here i tell you.

i'm hardly stress-laden. i sleep well in quantity and quality. i am usually relaxed and happy when i reach home after a (hard??) days' work. so the only conclusion i have made is that i'm eating absolutely nothing that's good for me. i thought fried chicken skin was very nutritious. oh well. better not give so much money to kfc now. but it's so convenient.. pop into the shell petrol station, pump in some fuel, drive past the drive-thru window and there you have eat... dinner for two. yum. ok, got to stop all this soon. how can one resist this:



fine..i shall go to jusco tomorrow evening and buy a weeks' supply of salmon. that will be my lunch for a week. i'll have enough omega 3 and good fatty acids to last me till my next fast food binge. doesn't look too bad, this healthy thing:



anyone know any caterers in the damansara region? i so need one now....i think it's ALL about the presentation. and the fact that you don't have to prepare and wash up!
