What a Sunday! A look back at the week

All I can say really about today is what a sh*t storm of a day.  I mean, don't get me wrong, I was happy that I was busy but the setup I have in the kitchen is not to be desired!  I could increase my product time if I had a proper "make table", which I have zero!  Oh, this is about work, in case you didn't catch on to it.  
I went to bed not feeling the best after last night's dinner.  Who knows what part of it didn't agree with me.  I was kinda hungry when I woke up and practicing yoga, but didn't want to eat.  I figured I would have a protein shake later at work and took a bar with me too.  Well I made the shake about 9:30-ish and didn't finish it.  I ate my bar between 12:30 and 1 and got stomach cramps after that.  I did also have a but of almond butter and a cortado.  Maybe if I stayed on point with my foods I wouldn't have a wonky stomach!  BUT, I didn't eat bad last night.  We went to Mt. Chalet and I got my usually burger with guacamole, coleslaw and bacon.  Though this time I did add a fried egg.  Maybe I have been having too many eggs and almond butter.  The eggs just slip in there so easy.  The almond butter, well I just don't need to lick the knife!  My skin hasn't been bad besides the 2 pimples on my cheek that won't really go away ( I pick too, doesn't help), but almost gone!

So I'm trying to think back to Friday.... I really don't think anything super exciting happened.  I worked of course, so nothing new there.


But this happened!  I mean LMAO!  Love Coffee Ripples.  I don't remember what I had for lunch, wait!  Yes I do.  I didn't take a photo because it didn't look pretty!  It was roasted maple brussels, kale and ground turkey.  It was tasty and did the job, keeping me not hangry!


Dinner was a PaleOMG recipe!!  Southwest turkey sliders with avocado dressing slaw.  D wanted nothing to do with it 😔  It was really good.  A hint of spiciness to both the slaw and turkey.  The slaw was creamy from the avocado and little bit of olive oil.  Really tasty and different from what I normally make. I would make it over and over again, but a single serving since D wouldn't eat it.


Saturday lunch turned out to be some leftovers since my protein pancakes were an epic fail!  I was still kinda full from my shake, but since I just lifted and I need to add a few pounds I ate anyway.  My pancakes turned into a glob of gu!  Probably because I blended the banana and not mashed it.  I had some roasted cabbage and topped the burgers with mayo.


After I ate I took Stryker to the pet store to get a bath .  He did really well, but he did jump out of the tub in the end.  I bought him a cookie anyway!


Saturday means dinner is out!  D got back from the gym after 6 so we were limited as to where we could go and not wait.  So we walked over to Mt. Chalet and was lucky enough to get the last table!  I had the piedmontese burger (medium rare) on a bed of romaine lettuce with coleslaw, guacamole, bacon and a fried egg.  I so think I over did it!  There was 6 slices of bacon on it!  I ate everything but the tomato slices and lettuce under those.  I only dipped into the mayo a few times, so most of that was left.  When I got home I made sure to take my HCL.  I just didn't feel well the rest of the night.  Even when I woke in the middle of the night to pet a purring Felix next to me I wasn't right.

As soon as I got home I fed the animals and poured a glass of wine.  I relaxed on the couch and no sooner as I finished my wine D got home.  I was lucky enough to have the leftovers from Friday and D's leftovers from last night so all I needed to do was re-heat everything and dinner was served.  I did have some cashew butter filled chocolate after dinner.

I know what you are thinking.... you had a bad stomach yet you drank wine and had chocolate.  You didn't really eat well all day.

Yeah, I didn't make the best choices but I don't dwell or stress on them.  Tomorrow is another day and I will make fabulous choices and not have any of the "bad" stuff I shouldn't.  Mainly sugar.  Come on! even the best paleo/AIP bloggers make decisions that are not the best for them.  We make up for it and move on.

Till tomorrow!
