Day 15 HALF WAY THERE!

Breakfast:

- 4 eggs cooked in coconut oil with mushrooms and onion

- mixed berries

Lunch:

- almond butter with 1/2 banana

- salad with lettuce, chard and avocado

Was a little frustrated when I went into the fridge to find the chicken breast I had planned for my lunch only to find it had been eaten!! Since I need to go grocery shopping, I didn't have any other true Whole30 compliant protein available so I made due with the almond butter. I need to plan better so that I make sure I always have multiple options available.

Dinner:

- pulled pork

- roasted cauliflower

- salad with lettuce, mushrooms and avocado

Snack:

- pistachios

Found myself a bit stuck. Was at a work meeting offsite and they had us order sandwiches for lunch. I ended up ordering chicken breast with lettuce, tomato and avocado (no condiments). Removed the bread and ate the 1/2 of the rest. Hoping the chicken breast didn't have sugar in it.

- sliced chicken breast

- tomato

- lettuce

- avocado

- strawberries

Snack:

- 2 hard boiled eggs

Dinner:

- sausage (Whole30 compliant)

- salsa

I've had issues getting veggies in today. Just not interested. Sigh.

Day 24:

Breakfast:

- 3 eggs

Lunch:

- adobo chicken on a bed of baby spinach with avocado

Dinner:

- 2.5 oz tuna, baby spinach, avocado

Worked late tonight--simple dinner.

Little bit of a headache all day today. Trying some coffee this evening to see that that helps. It's not hunger--as my tummy is content.

Hi Nina,

I just read your whole log. Did you ever find anything out about the low energy level after having red meat? I was reading up on bloat today and the only thing I see in your diet that might be causing it is all of the lettuce you're having (chard, spinach, etc). It might have been from having 2 salads a day there for a while. Lots of hard-to-digest food that is great it small doses.

What do you think?

Thanks, Erin.

I haven't figured out if the low energy was related to the red meat as I haven't tested it again. I don't eat red meat often (just isn't my favorite) but plan on paying special attention the next time I do. In regards to the salad idea, it's possible. As of last night I am eliminating spinach and chard from my diet as I read that they are very high in oxalate which can contribute to kidney stones (which I unfortunately am prone to). I do eat a lot of salad but am going to try to now stay away from the spinach and chard. Tonight's salad had baby butter lettuce, red lettuce and escarole. I'm going to see if that does the trick with the bloating and if not, may try to ease up on the salads (though I do love them so!!).

Day 27:

Breakfast:

- 3 egg cups (egg, W30 compliant sausage, zucchini, mushroom, onion)

- 1 c black coffee

Lunch:

- 2 T almond butter

- 1 banana

- 1 hardboiled egg

Kind of a make-shift lunch due to poor planning. My son was on a fieldtrip about an hour and a half south of home and I had to go pick him up and had no time to get a "real" lunch prepared.

Dinner:

- delicious thai curry chicken from nomnompaleo.com's iPad app. Sooooo good!!

I'm finding that I get full much faster than I used to. I intended on having a salad along with the curry but filled up before getting to it.

I can't believe today is Day 28:

Breakfast:

- 3 egg cups (egg, W30 compliant sausage, zucchini, mushroom, onion)

- 1/2 c raspberries

- black coffee

Lunch:

- 2 sardines (not sure how I feel about these yet)

- 2 eggs with prociutto

Snack:

- banana with 2T almond butter

Dinner:

- salad- lettuce, tomatoes, mushroom, carrots and cucumber

Snack:

- macadamia nuts

Today was kind of an odd eating day. Had a late lunch as I knew my dinner choices may be limited. Hungry when I got home so had some macadamia nuts. Did a little self talk tonight. I started with being disappointed with not getting enough veggies in overall today. Then I realized that compared to the garbage that ate pre-W30 that today was pretty damn good.
