VINNIE’S CULINARY INDULGENCES IN LOUISIANA
- Went to the gym in his old neighborhood, Shapes, with his friend Sybil to work out
- Very easy to stay on his diet… for awhile
- Good crawfish where Vinnie was visiting so he got some NSNG crawfish
- On day two, Vinnie ate lunch and dinner like a Louisianan
- Vinnie had lots of seafood with some grains (fried catfish with french fries)
- Vinnie had to sleep off that lunch
- Dinner was hamburger steak and it made him feel pretty crummy too
- Option of stuffed baked potato
- Dessert had graham cracker/fudge/brownie crust with their cheesecake with marbled in dulce de leche
- Once Vinnie started eating the dessert, he felt sick but could not help but shovel the rest of it in his mouth
- Vinnie is soooo fat adapted, but this just proves how sugar and grains are addicting!!!
- Once Vinnie started eating the dessert, he felt sick but could not help but shovel the rest of it in his mouth
- Vinnie is not the biggest fan of fasting, but he took about a day off of eating to feel better
- Vinnie had lots of seafood with some grains (fried catfish with french fries)
VEGANISM
- Vinnie knows Todd in Louisiana (co-worker of Vinnie’s brother) who was a vegan athlete
