Ubume: Kukuthini ukutya kwakho kubusuku obungaphambi komdlalo?

UChristen Press (CP): Ndizidibanisa izinto kakhulu. Ndifunde kumava ukuba ndingancamathelisi kwimenyu enye okanye yesiqhelo ngokukodwa, kuba andazi ukuba ndiza kuba phi kwaye luhlobo luni lokutya oluza kubakho. Kodwa ukuba ndinako, ndiyathanda ukuba nesidlo esinerayisi; into enkulu kancinci kodwa kwangoko ngokuhlwa.

Ubume: Utya ntoni phambi komdlalo?

CP: Kuxhomekeke kwixesha lomdlalo, kodwa ndidla ngokuba nohlobo oluthile lweziqhamo ze-smoothie ezineprotein, kwaye ndingumlandeli omkhulu wegranola, ke ndihlala ndiyitya loo mini yomdlalo ngamanye amaxesha.

Ubume: Zingaphi iikhalori ozityayo ngosuku lomdlalo xa kuthelekiswa nosuku oluqhelekileyo?

CP: Ngosuku oluqhelekileyo, nditya phakathi kwe-2500 kunye ne-3000 yeekhalori, ke ngemini yomdlalo ndiza kutya amakhulu ambalwa ngaphezulu; mhlawumbi ngaphezulu nje kwama-3000.

Ubume: Kukuphi ukutya okuthandayo "splurge"?

CP: Ubuthathaka bam yitshokholethi-nantoni na ngetshokholethi! Ndiyayithanda!

Ubume: Ngaba ikhona imithetho yezondlo ozama ukubambelela kuyo?

CP: Ndicinga ukuba eyona nto inkulu kukungatyi ndide ndifakwe. Nditya ukutya okuninzi okuncinci imini yonke ukuze ndihlale ndinamandla, ngakumbi xa sineeseshoni zoqeqesho ezininzi. Xa ufumana zonke ezo swekile ngexesha elinye okanye zonke ezo carbs ngaxeshanye, amandla akho ehla enyuka, kwaye ndifuna ukuba ihambelane ngakumbi imini yonke.

Ubume: Ngaba uyathanda ukupheka kakhulu okanye ngaba ungumntu othanda ukutya ngaphandle?

CP: Ndiyathanda ukupheka! Kunzima ngakumbi kuba sisendleleni ngalo lonke ixesha, kodwa nanini na ndikwindawo enye ndiyapheka. Ubusuku obuqhelekileyo yintlanzi, imifuno ethile, kunye ne-quinoa exutywe nge-sauce enhle.

UbumeNgaba unayo nayiphi na imikhwa yokutya okanye yesiqhelo?

CP: Xa ndisekhaya, ndiyathanda ukucwangcisa zonke iindlela zam zokuzilolonga kunye nako konke ukutya kwam iveki yonke. Ndiyivenkile yokuthenga ukutya kanye-ngeveki; Ndifumana yonke into endiyifunayo ngeveki kwaye kusasa, ndenza isidlo sakusasa, ndipakishe amashwamshwam amathathu, isidlo sam sasemini, kunye neziselo ukuze ndihlale ndinamanzi kwindawo epholileyo. Ndihlala ndine-snack esandleni xa ndilambile imini yonke. Ndiyayithanda into yam epholileyo!

Ubume: Xa usendleleni, ngaba kukho ukutya okuthe ngqo eMelika okanye kwidolophu yakho oyiphosileyo?

CP: Umama wam upheka kakuhle kwaye wenza ukutya okuninzi kwesiCreole-ndiyakukhumbula ukutya kwejambalaya kunye nohlobo lwegumbo, yile nto ndiyidibanisa nekhaya nosapho. (Ungaphuthelwa ezi 10 zokupheka kwi-American Food Tour!)

Ubume: Ngokucacileyo, kukwakho unxibelelwano olukhulu phakathi kwento oyityayo nendlela ulusu lwakho olubukeka ngayo. Unolusu olumangalisayo! Ithini irejimeni yakho yobuhle yemihla ngemihla kwiintsuku ezininzi?

CP: Ekubeni ndidlala imidlalo nje emininzi, ikhawuleza kakhulu. Ndihlala ndifuna ukugcina ulusu lwam lucocekile xa ndivuka ekuseni kwaye ndisebenzisa i-sunscreen ngaphambi kokuba ndiphume ndiye ebaleni. Kum, kubalulekile ukuba nescreen selanga esingangeniyo emehlweni am xa ndidlala, ke ndisebenzisa iCoppertone's ngokucacileyoSheer Iintsuku zeLanga eziJongene neLotion ($ 7; walmart.com). Ke ukuba ndiyokutya isidlo sangokuhlwa okanye iziselo, ndaphinda ndafaka i-sunscreen ebusweni ndaphosa umgubo, blush, kunye neChapstick enombala!

Ubume: Yeyiphi eyona nto uhlala usenza phambi komdlalo ngamnye?

CP: Ndicamngca yonke imihla kwaye ibaluleka ngakumbi ngeentsuku zomdlalo kuba ndingumntu onamandla aphezulu, ophakuphakuyo. Ndiyazi ukuba ukucamngca kundizisa endaweni yam ezolileyo; xa ndiqala usuku ukusuka kwindawo ekhululekileyo, indivumela ukuba ndenze ngcono kwimidlalo. Andicingi ngomdlalo konke konke, ndijolise kwimantra yam.

Ubume: Ungasixelela ukuba ithini imantra yakho?

CP: Andikwazi ukukuxelela! Ndiziqhelanisa nokucamngca ngeVedic kwaye ufumana i-mantra yakho kwi-guru ekufundisayo. Ligama elikwiSanskrit kwaye akufanelanga ulithethe okanye ucinge ngalo ngaphandle kokucamngca kwakho.
