Happy Friday!
As I write I am just so full! I'm kinda freaked out about the amount of calories (~1400). Does it matter? Really, no it doesn't but my tendencies from the past like to creep back into my head! This is going to be a short post since nothing really happened today. It was a work day, so I kept myself busy. It was my usual morning rituals with a collagen coffee and I had a few bites of the moo-less avocado mousse. It tasted too much like banana and I had my normal banana reaction of burping. So I tossed it, I didn't need it around if I'm going to react. Waste of a couple good avocados. I guess I should look for one without banana.
I had my first meal at 9:30 this morning. I bought Green Goddess dressing from Trader Joe's and there was zero sugars in it, so I figured it's safe. I used that to coat 3 chicken drumsticks that I removed the skin, took off the bone and cut up. I also put a side of brussels with it.
It wasn't as satisfying as I had hoped and so I ate a piece of bacon as well.
I got home and did a few things (ate a few pieces of roasted cauliflower) and started dinner since I knew D had not had anything since breakfast. I wasn't super hungry but knew I needed to eat.
This is the Spinach artichoke chicken from Real Plans. I used 2 big chicken breast and spilt them between me and D. I should have made it a 3 serving meal! My stomach thought it was bigger than what it was. Now I'm stuffed and why did I calculate how many calories it was?! But really, I ate twice three times today (forgot the few bites of mousse), besides coffee(s), the bacon and cauliflower. Still, one day of "over eating" does not derail anything. Tomorrow I probably won't eat until late morning. Ugh, I hate my brain sometimes, over thinking everything!
Ok, so I said it was going to be short. Still detoxing, but now I need to relax and forget about what I ate because it's just food and it's important for my body to function. It doesn't throw anything off and I don't need to hit the gym to work it off either. Not like I sat down to a huge piece of cake! LOL Enough said 😝
Edited side note - artichokes are not agreeing with me. I'm totally congested! Who knew!?
2nd edit! I recalculated the recipe and I was way off!! (714 per serving). I still feel the same though!
