1/11/10 eating…
Didn’t lose any more weight this morning.
Breakfast- bacon, avacado, mushroom omlette.
Lunch – assorted nuts and dried fruit and some lunch meat.
Dinner – Chipotle burrito bowl (pork, veggies, salsa, lettuce and guacamole) and a tangerine.
I went to Trader Joe’s today and they have a great selection on nuts and dried fruit. Everyone should try the mango’s…they are sooo good.

DAY4 — Sunday
8:15 – 2 eggs, 1/4c egg whites
2 tsp olive oil, 2 small nectarines (3oz)
10:45 – 1.5 oz turkey, 2 oz apple, 6 almonds
2pm – 4.5 oz turkey, 8oz parsnips, 8 almonds

Didn’t sleep much last night, so my sugar cravings kicked in — had to keep reminding myself that I was TIRED and my body DIDN’T need more food!
So excited about my WOD!! I did “Man’s” pushups for the first time, and band-assisted pull-ups!! (they didn’t all count, but it felt really cool to get my chin over the bar a couple times!!!)

Had my first experience eating out with some friends that weren’t Paleo. I broke down a little and didn’t go 100% Paleo. I woke up this morning still at 203.
Breakfast- 3 egg omlet with green onions, mushrooms, bacon and avacado.
Snack – 15 grapes and a banana.
Lunch- Ice tea and salad with apples, sweetened walnuts, poppy seed vinegrette. (Red Robin)
Afternoon glass of wine.
Dinner – Sushi that included rice, fried soft shell crab, tempura shrimp etc.
And then I even had ice cream…I had the feeling that I did well this week and I needed a pat on the back/break.
Back after it today!
