Happy Tuesday! I have been having a hard time. Today I had a meeting with a moms group. There were finger foods. Puppy chow, nutter butters, trail mix, juice, among other things. I knew this type of food would be there. As bad as I wanted it, I didn't budge. I did eat about a cup of watermelon. That was fantastic. This week is pure vegan. low on protein. Many of the "meals" would be fantastic as sides. And although tasty, I feel as though I'm missing something. Which I suppose would be protein. A lot of meals I kept thinking would be great with some meat. 5 more days. I realized today that I would be done ON labor day.
Now, some people would probably be excited - jumping up and down and thinking of all the foods they can eat. While I am jumping up and down, I have thought about the foods I can eat. Am I going to do 21 hard days of reseting my body only to fill it with junk the day I'm done? NO WAY! Sure - I'll have some things that I had before - but I don't EVER want to feel like I did before. Nor do I want to lose this wonderful sleep I've been getting. What will I add back in? Well, shakeology for sure, eggs, cheese, yogurt, meat - on occassion, and of course the occasional treat. I've actually enjoyed not eating lots of meat. I like it. I think I will stick with a lot of meals from phases one and two. Meatless but lots of protein. I am turning 30 this year and I am DETERMINED to look fantastic at thirty! But on the way there, my meals will be a little more interesting.
Breakfast this morning was simple. Fruit. No picture because I was on the run. I grabbed an apple, cherries, and strawberries. I tossed them in a bowl and out the door I went. Now that is what I call fast food! It took me less time to grab the fruit than it would have going through the drive through. What can I say? Fruit for breakfast is fantastic.
Lunch today was micro green salad. I was happy to be able to eat nuts with it. I really don't like the spinach with it. Or maybe it's the dressing I'm not a fan of. I keep eating it though because I don't want to waste. I enjoyed the first type of dressing I made, just not this one.
This was dinner. Kale along with curry cauliflower. I thought this would go well with an Indian chicken dish my husband makes. Or possibly lamb. It wasn't too bad. I'm glad I liked it because I made a double batch for tomorrow! I was supposed to have fennel bulb but I can't find fennel so I figured this would work. :)
That's all for now. I have just 5 days left and can't wait. As always, if you have any questions, contact me or click here.
