Appetite was funny all day so had two meals & three small snacks. Refried beans are allowed w/one meal a day on a WholeJulie. You got back on track! You are doing well! Thank you for noticing!

WholeMama623 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I never thought about putting cinnamon on my sweet potato.. will have to try this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chezjulie Posted July 15, 2015 Author Share Posted July 15, 2015 It's so good, you guys! I usually put ghee and either pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon on my sweet potatoes. It really enhances the flavor. The pumpkin pie spice is nice for a morning sweet potato. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chezjulie Posted July 15, 2015 Author Share Posted July 15, 2015 W6D42M1 3 eggs, artichoke hearts, baby spinach, mushrooms, grape tomatoes in coconut oil w/TJ's 21 Spice, coffee w/milk W6D42M2 tuna fish, baby spinach, mushrooms, grape tomatoes, small avocado, EVOO & balsamic vinegar W6D42M3 egg salad (eggs, mayo, truffle oil), lettuce, tomato, kale, golden raisins, parmesan, slice of watermelon, dark chocolate sunflower butter cup W6D42S1 Gingerberry Kombucha, spoonful of peanut butter Food: Solid day except for the stress-induced sweet after dinner. Feelings: As I've mentioned, I've gained back some pounds and some inches. Of course this is what would happen since I went off the rails quite a bit during my birthday celebrations and my trip to California while sick. I've been hopping on the scale (bad Julie!) and I realize that what I need to do is get a week of solid eating under my belt and then see where I am. I know that this approach works, but not if I let non-WholeJulie foods sneak in regularly. So I'll see where I am on Sunday. For health reasons, I don't really have a choice but to keep going!

I had some celery and carrot sticks for with my breakfast but they tasted very off-putting, and all I wanted for dinner was something bland. I focused on getting some protein with each meal.

Feelings: Aw, thanks, Britt! I was feeling pretty down about being off track, so it's nice to hear that you see it more positively. And my DH took a picture of me at the park that looks like a "before" photo. I have been reminding myself that even if I am not eating perfectly and my body is not where I want it to be, I'm eating sooooo many more vegetables and good fats than before, and drinking far fewer sodas and iced lattes. (My new fave is Pure Leaf Unsweetened Tea, which doesn't contain "caramel color" (sugar), and is the tastiest unsweetened iced tea I've ever had. So I keep bottles of that at home instead of soda). I'm also having almost no frozen food except for frozen veggies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feelings: Today's menu is kind of how I see myself eating on the WholeJulie... mostly protein, veggies, and fat, with one serving of fruit, and occasionally something like refried beans or 1/2 an English muffin. Donna, it's just store bought pesto, although I have seen paleo pesto recipes. Salmon w/pesto is one of our favorite dinners, so I wanted to bring it back after the Whole30.

I think I also need to stay out of the grocery store nearby (which has bulk bins) for the next few days. Too dangerous! My dinner came in a taco shell bowl which at one time I would have devoured; I just ate the bottom of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
