The Spaceman And His Greens ...

Being a spaceman has its setbacks too. For one thing I have to watch my weight or my rocket ship ain't going to lift off at all ... LOL! The truth of the matter is I've gone on a diet. Yes, even macho spacemen like me have to be put on diets from time to time. Sad but true ... sigghhh!

Actually I've been wanting to go on a diet for ages but have kept putting it off. I was just making one excuse after another and Mrs. Spiff finally put her foot down and decided that we must go on a diet or we're going to end up looking like one of those slimy bug eyed Zorkians!

So, since Sunday we've been munching away on salads and nothing else. No rice, no meat, well, the salad had bacon bits in it which could be constituted as meat though but who's counting, ya?

The picture below is what I had for dinner today which consisted of the salad, garlic bread and chicken soup. Surprisingly I was kinda stuffed from just eating that though I did get hungry again a few hours later. I don't know how long I'm going to be able to sustain this diet but so far I've been holding out. What did I get myself into this time ...
