I am so happy that I was able to go back to my diet right away after my "treat day" yesterday. I didn't feel guilty about yesterday, I felt that every now and then I had to satisfy some cravings, otherwise... What am I doing all this for right? Everything in moderation... I just have to keep everything at bay, no going over board!!

I was able to do a little menu planning for this week last night so I went to the supermarket today with Raul so that we can shop for this week's menu :) I love this day! We included shrimps, squid and pork this week... But we'll only have pork once every week and trying to stay away from beef!

I got a massage at 10:30PM but I wasn't happy!! The reward massage that I promised to get myself for not smoking each week wasn't so good... Spaholics was so booked that I had to settle for Asian Massage... Sigh... Well, at least it was still a massage :) Haha!

Spicy Roasted Garlic & Herb Grilled Sole Fish Fillet Recipe

1/2 pc. Lemon
1 pc. Sole Fish Fillet
1/2 Tbsp McCormick Grill Mates Roasted Garlic and Herb
Cayenne Pepper (To your liking! Hihihi!)
Small pinch of Nu Salt (This is from Healthy Options, but you can actually skip the salt)

Marinate your fish with the lemon and let sit for about 5-10 minutes in the ref. Set your grill on high heat. Then, rub all the ingredients on both sides of your fillet, and spray the grill with a non-fat cooking spray. Grill your fish for 3 minutes on both sides.

Grilled Chopped Red Peppers and Corn Kernels Recipe


1/4 cup red bell peppers, chopped
1/4 cup corn kernels

Skip the oil. If your grill is big enough, you can grill your veggies with your fish. Just let it sit and roast for 3 minutes, then move it around with a saute spatula. Serve on top of the fish!
