Monday morning. I didn't sleep well but of course was wide awake for the gym. Today was quad day. It wasn't great since I ran yesterday. My back was stiff so squats I could barely do, split squats were good though. I finished my lifting with just over 10 minutes of walking. Overall I'm not disappointed. I have decided to continue tracking during this week to see how I feel at certain points in the day and when I last ate.
I'm loving cooking my greens in veggie stock, so tasty! It's a good sized portion.
I stopped at Starbucks since it was double points day and got a Peach Tranquility tea again. Just so good! I refilled that cup about 2 more times with hot water. By the end there was no tea flavor! Then, I started feeling hungry right about Noon, so it was the perfect time to get home and have my shake.
Me spooning my shake with my almond butter and only 1 gram of sugar per tbs! I love crunchy almond butter or peanut butter, flavored ones are even better!
Around 3:30 I was feeling a little hungry. I know I wasn't bored since I had been pretty busy today. I had a New Primal Uncured Bacon Jerky Stick. I really liked this one, great taste
No picture of dinner but I can tell you it was a big salad and it was wonderful. The chicken was smaller and I probably over estimated the amount of bacon since it was all chopped up. I love to eat a lot of food and I never have leftovers, rarely ever. I eat clean enough in general and a majority of it is vegetables so it's all good. I'm comfortable with me 😍
After all this is real life. Not everything is beautifully designed meals. I get home I need to eat. Whether that's in the morning or in the evening. If I can prep large amounts on the weekends I do. If I can't I try to find the things that make it easier and I use those. I cook separate meals for both D and I. It's not hard and dinner is always ready in under 30 minutes. I have the tools to get it done. I do what I need to do in general to get things done. I bought an instant pot over the summer and it is the best tool I have purchased. I love it!
I am happy today and my progress. Every week is getting easier with various foods I can introduced back in, within reason.
My next challenge is to add a lot more variety of vegetables. Dr Terry Wahls recently talked about getting in over 200 varieties and I think it's a great goal to accomplish. I know there are a few things I can't have, for now, but so many vegetables to try it's exciting!
