[QUOTE="Kristin251, post: 1506101, member: 240838"] Strange as it is and as surprising as it is I never get bored of avocado. I do different things with it though. It's probably because it's the perfect fuel and meal balancer for me. If I don't have it I'm hungry and bs fluctuates and I don't feel as well. I love gooey food so that works. Lately bf is just a quick smash with sea salt and chopped basil. Lunch it's usually smashed into some deli meat and rolled. Dinner WAS chopped into a salad or into a chopped salad without lettuce but with chicken, turkey etc and some other cold raw veggies like celery radish onion. My proteins change all the time so this staves off boredom. Different condiments, sauces and herbs change things too. I used to LOVE to cook. Now I just eat. Meals are small and simple. Eat and move on. It took awhile to get there. Cooking, cleaning, planning was too much and caused me anxiety. I think I would get bored of steak but not burgers, rare lamb chops, chicken thighs , shrimp or eggs. Then there's always smoked salmon. That might bore me after awhile. Are you doing zero carbs as in mayo or mustard isn't allowed? Then I would have isssues with hard boiled eggs and tuna. I like mayo based sauces like mixing mayo with mustard, horseradish or spicy sauces. Now I have a new issue. Since cutting back on cheese, eating a lighter dinner and leaving 4 hours between food and lantus my fasting has come right down fast and by a lot.
