    What's the reasoning behind this, like what makes the 2nd to 3rd year that special?

    Don't overmix it. Otherwise you're going to get some kind of paste. Just like two seconds or so.
  4. Temperature still normal. No symptoms. One week is over. Both my colleague and I are doing fine.

    I also steamed some broccoli and mushrooms in the microwave. Together with a sweet & sour sauce it's going to be part of lunch tomorrow. Looks pretty boring in that plastic container.

    Rest of the bean pasta. Rest of yellow curry paste (will switch to either red or green vor variety next) with coconut milk and mock chicken pieces. Vegetables are: broad green beans, broccoli, brown mushrooms and shiitake mushrooms. Will eat that tomorrow with fresh cooked rice.

    I used 110 g cashews (the recipe calls for 150 g but I only had 110 g available) but the idea that it might work out fine anyway without having to adapt the rest of the recipe was a good one since I like it heavy on the nooch. 110 g cashews 4 tbs nutritional yeast (different brands have a different taste so you might have to find your favorite first) 0.5 tsp onion powder 0.5 tsp garlic powder 0.5 tsp salt Throw everything together and swirl through a blender for a few seconds. --- There are different recipes out there. Some only call for garlic powder and salt, some for both garlic and onion powder.

    This is a really awesome spice mix:

    Self-made vegan parmesan substitute. Tastes awesome. I'm pleasantly surprised. So much cheaper than the store-bought stuff!
  11. Temperature still normal. No symptoms. I guess having this kind of "diary" will be the new normal for medical staff working with ER patients because the corona tests are not fast enough for a quick screening at bedside.

    It kind of gives me the creeps when thinking about how many colleagues and other patients could've possibly been infected by one patient only with unknown corona infection. Yes, we all wore N95 or FFP2 masks and the patient wore a simple mask but anyway...

    I feel like I’m not doing all I can

    You think that you "could be doing more"? What do you have in mind when it comes to that feeling? Having WLS shouldn't make you feel like a fraud. It's a surgical therapy, not "cheating" in any way. However, when it comes to being asked how you lost the weight and you decide to give people the "healthy choices" speech and casually gloss over the fact that you had WLS - well, IMO that'd be another story.

    So it's me nuking food again. A simple one, but it'll be a keeper. Red cabbage with sweet & sour sauce and a dash of cinnamon and salt.

    How do you make them?

    Apple cinnamon protein oatmeal with dried sour cherries and dark almond butter.
  17. Infection rates are soaring. I was a contact person again (and a fellow colleague who assisted me) and now we've gotten some sheet where we have to take note of any symptoms and we have to take our temp every day for 14 days. Luckily so far we're both alright.

    I guess this will be the new norm until we have a test fast enough so patients without symptoms can be isolated sooner.

      Wow, again? Hopefully it doesn't affect you directly.

      Well, I have to keep this diary. Luckily everything still feels normal.

      "Being a contact person" will most likely be our new normal I guess. Hopefully there'll be a vaccine soon but I doubt it.

      Hope everything continues to go good for you. I had three contact.....none more so than my husband. We slept in the same bed, ate together, showered together... etc. The two of my co workers got it.

    Needed to use up some ingredients, so here's a mix of sweet corn, mixed canned beans, red bell pepper, mock ground meat, , red onion, tomato sauce, red curry powder and coconut milk. I had burger tonight again (also leftovers buns that had to go, freezer is full right now), so this is lunch for tomorrow and most likely dinner as well as I have some mock salami and vegan spread that has to go. One can't really stock up on perishables and not everything freezes well. Awful look, awesome taste:

    These gnocchi have found their way into my staples I guess. 100% plant based except the usually warning that it "may contain traces of".

    Kind of boring looking burger.

    Improvised meal. However, I'm craving a burger and I have some veg burgers that have to go as well so I think I'm preparing this curry for tomorrow. Here are some pictures before the sauce is on and everything is assembled.
