Whole30 Journey - Day 7

Day 7!

Seriously you guys this day was crazy!  I don't even know where the time went, but I accomplished a lot!

I woke up around 6:30.... naturally I'm hungry but damn it I can't eat because I have to get my labs done.  Oh bother! (It snowed overnight!!)  I start to get ready, get the pups and cat fed, put D's lunch together and in his bag.  I'm starting to run behind because I need to run an errand for work and doing it before the bank opens  (they use the loading dock to park!!) so I can unload and get to my appointment.  I debated about having eggs but don't want to overdo it.  I remembered I have complaint mini beef sticks.  So I grab 2 of those, scoop out a whole small avocado and some pea pods, throw on the sea salt, put a lid on it and run out the door.


I did my work errands, went to get my labs and quickly dove into my breakfast.  SO was not enough but I wanted to get to the gym which was the time I wanted to get there, 9am.  
I stopped at Starbucks for a coffee on my way to get lunch at 7Greens.  No worries about it being busy there since they would just be opening when I got there.
I wanted to try something new.  The blake bowl is just so good, but I got the Yoga Girl and got rid of the quinoa, tofu sauce and miso.  I added chorizo and avocado.  It had kale, spinach, carrot, roasted beets, roasted brussel sprouts and I want to say I am missing something else!

I got home with my goods but realized I really needed to take care of all the snow on the driveway and sidewalk.  I put my bag in the kitchen and brought the pups out with me.  I started the snow thrower and was done in 15 minutes.  My hip was hurting, so I probably shouldn't have done it but it had to get done.


What's in the bag?!!?


It wasn't as filling as I hoped, not much protein but it was super tasty!  Loved it.  About 2 hours later I was eating a few strips of bacon.  I started to meal prep as I snacked on my bacon.  It took me a couple hours but they really did fly by.  Before I knew it it was time to finish up what I needed to have dinner ready just in time for D to get home.


I know dinner doesn't look like much but it really was good.  D wasn't a fan but he ate it anyway.  He had broccoli instead of brussels.  The recipe from Melissa Joulwan, of course.  I am following her Whole30 plan from a few years ago.  This one is Taj Mahal Chicken.  It makes 2 to 4 serving - easily 3 good size servings.  D is into how many calories everything is so I plugged the recipe into myfitnesspal and for 3 servings it was 381 calories.  Not too bad at all.

I've been feeling really good following this plan.  I also signed up for Meal Planner and Stupid Easy Paleo for when Whole30/Sugar Detox is over.  I'll still follow the same guidelines anyway.  I don't feel deprived at all so why not?!

Until tomorrow!  I've been on the computer too much this evening.
