Found out my daughter has pneumonia in her right lung again (we think it is from when she choked on a hot dog) but that's kind of scary in itself, she was originally diagnosed with it 2 weeks ago and was given antibiotics, and it has seemed to come back. Hopefully with her new medicine we are able to get rid of it! Oh yeah and this is a bonus picture post since I didn't post any while I was in MI. Where's the beef? Oh yeah it;s right there..... Home cured bacon, check out that meat!

Vanniek71 Posted December 13, 2013 Author Share Posted December 13, 2013 DAY 142 - Tuesday December 10th Info: Today I am naming D.O.T.S. Day of the Salads. That's all I wanted, and that's all I ate!

Vanniek71 Posted December 13, 2013 Author Share Posted December 13, 2013 DAY 143 - Wednesday December 11th Info: So I have been getting the recipes ready to post, and I have come to the conclusion that the soups (other than the buffalo) need a little more tinkering before I am ready to stick them on the site. I subbed coconut flower in to the cream of mushroom for example, and it made it grainy. In my opinion I don't want my soup grainy. So I need to do a few other experiments before I am ready to put those out. It was great in the casserole, but not so much as a standalone. And if I am not happy with it, I definitely don't want to pass it on to you guys. I'll be working on them over the next few weeks and get them up, but just wanted to let you all know what the status was on those. Buffalo chicken soup on the other hand.....the recipe is set, I just need to get some more photos and that one will be making an appearance (finally I know, sorry!) soon. Breakfast...and lunch! Food Log: Breakfast: Roasted Anaheim pepper filled with a mixture of egg, onion, and home cured bacon, and then slow roasted in the oven. Lunch: Roasted Anaheim pepper filled with a mixture of egg, onion, and home cured bacon, and then slow roasted in the oven. This time I got a bit crazy and put some hot sauce on it too! Dinner: Lettuce/beef taquitos with chopped onion, black olives, and Frank's RedHot. Snack: none Exercise log: none DAY 143 COMPLETE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanniek71 Posted December 13, 2013 Author Share Posted December 13, 2013 DAY 144 - Thursday December 12th Info: I slept like crap last night for some reason, couldn't fall asleep at all. Last time I remember looking at the clock it was 1:04am. That sucks when you get up at 4:30am.......Needless to say I was a bit tired today, when I got off work, I immediately crashed on the couch for a few hours. I wish I could attribute my energy loss to not eating right or something, but this was just straight exhaustion! Going to try and get to bed earlier tonight, hopefully it doesn't end up like last night again! Food Log: Breakfast: Mixed greens salad (romaine, iceberg, carrots, celery) with seasoned ground beef, OOM/hot sauce dressing Lunch: Mixed greens salad (romaine, iceberg, carrots, celery) with seasoned ground beef, OOM/hot sauce dressing. This time I got a little crazy though and added a boiled egg! Dinner: Cream of mushroom soup (Paleo Style) with seasoned ground beef added, and raw carrots and cauliflower on the side. Almond butter for fat. Like I said yesterday this soup needs a little tweaking, it's still really tasty, but too grainy. I think I have the solution, just need to make another batch and try it out!

Vanniek71 Posted December 14, 2013 Author Share Posted December 14, 2013 DAY 145 - Friday December 13th Info: Back is back at it again, but I think I have it about 90% figured out. When i don't exercise or get some sort of stretch or physical resistance, it starts to tighten up and causes pain. I have pretty strong legs, and I think the issue is that my hamstrings get tight and cause whats going on. Good reason to get off my butt and make sure I am doing something right? Food Log: Breakfast: Mixed greens salad (romaine, iceberg, carrots, celery) with seasoned ground beef, OOM/hot sauce dressing Lunch: Mixed greens salad (romaine, iceberg, carrots, celery) with seasoned ground beef, OOM/hot sauce dressing.

OMFG Burger - fresh lean ground beef with onion powder, salt and pepper kneaded in, pan cooked and basted with Franks Red hot. Placed on a bed of romaine lettuce, AND, AND topped with Black olive, onion, Kosher dill relish, OOM, and smoked oyster tapenade. Yep it was OMFG delicious!
