I finished my first plate and put it on the side and after a
couple of minutes a waitress approached our table and placed the receipt tray
with fortune cookies, she smiled and said “Have a Good Day!” and left.
“What!!?!!? “ I uttered and start laughing out
loud. I just seated for about 20mins and
this waitress thought I am already done. Let me tell you what happened.
After listening to one of Bo Sanchez’ talk series The Biggest Winner I started having fruits as my breakfast and I am pretty much doing a
good job following that routine. I had
my doctor’s follow up appointment today and finished almost at lunchtime. So,
we head down to Hibachi buffet restaurant and I told to myself that I will start with
fruits and will rest for 30 minutes before I take the main meal. When it comes
to dishes I am not really fond of eating meats, I would only go more on veggies,
fish, and seafood.
We got our seat and walked to the food aisle to get the
first plate. As I was saying a while ago, I chose fruits for my first plate. I
did enjoy every bite of the fruits I had and after that I placed my plate on
the side. Well you know how it works in a buffet, right? I don’t know what got into this waitress,
probably thinking that I already had fruits, she thought that I am finished
eating and had the dessert. She
approached our table and placed the receipt tray with fortune cookies and said
“Have a good day.” I started laughing
out loud and uttered with a surprised “What?!?
I just had my first plate and that’s only fruits.” I do not know if she understands
why we started laughing but I am hoping she got the message when I walk to the
food aisle again and go for my main dish.
Sounds funny, isn’t it? Normally, we eat fruits after eating
our meal; it is usually serve as dessert. I have been told that fruits should be eaten
with empty stomach. Fruits digest faster. Compare to bread or meat, a slice of
fruit digest quickly and is ready to go straight to the stomach and into the
intestines. It is said that if you eat fruits and bread or with any meal together
only produce gas.
Fruits digest quickly are blocked by bread or other meal
that is taking longer to digest. The meal ferments and turns into acid. Thus,
when the fruits come in contact with the food in the stomach and digestive
juices, it just makes the entire mass of food to spoil. That is why it is best
to have fruits for breakfast. If a fruit
is to be eaten like this, it will help to detoxify our body system and will
supply us with a great deal of energy for weight loss and other life
activities.
Friends, frutify your breakfast!
