Brown rice is my staple today. I might continue this tomorrow depending on how my tummy feels. So far, still wonky.

 

I made brown rice with 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds. I toasted the seeds and added a splash of tamari to them. I think the whole thing is about 3 cups in total.

 

I've eaten a portion of this mix three or four times today. I have a tiny bit left and I might have it later. However, I think I'm done eating for the day.

 

In addition, I've had 1.5 cups of apple juice on ice. It's my comfort drink when I'm sick. I've had 1/2 an umeboshi plum to neutralize the acidity in my stomach and three mugs of kukicha tea. So about 4.5 cups of tea.

 

So in total, I think I'll get about 1100 calories today and I can live with that.
