Yummy food + cholesterol

Given the fact that I am "trying" to eat healthy, I really shouldn't be watching so much cooking channel and salivating over the dishes. 2-3 weeks before my mom came over, I have been craving for crabs. See, a normal person would just go to any seafood restaurant, have the meal and be done with the craving, But me,no no no no. Lets just say that I enjoy it too much that some may find the way I eat crabs very gross. So when mom came over to KL, I dragged my mom to the market, bought the crabs and some salmon and after slaving for an hour in the kitchen, the result was oh-so-tempting

                                         
                                         My very own version of grilled soy honey salmon
                                         My sister's boring veggies
                                         Another of my sister's boring dishes
                                          And the star of the show, Mom's chili crabs

I think I ate too much that I need to get my cholesterol checked. Sigh, after you get to a certain age, after a hearty meal, you start to worry about how many calories you consumed, how much cholesterol, how much sugar. Gone were those good ol days where you get to enjoy those meals and not worry about a thing. Oh teenage years, how much I miss you.
