Day 10

Late Night Snack on Day 9: After cleaning up and brushing my teeth and getting into bed.  I was hungry.  So, I fixed a 10:45 PM snack of:  zucchini muffin, left over zucchini & meatloaf. It was quite tasty and satisfying.

Body:  Yesterday, I noticed that there is so muscle soreness in my right leg.  Like the kind of soreness you feel after the next day after working out.  And I haven't worked out this week.  The only exercise I've gotten is from cleaning my apt and walking the farmers markets.  I've been to two this week.  I wonder what could be causing it, could that muscle be working to burn fat???? I'm being wayyy to optimistic about that.

I went to the farmers market to check out a different meat man.  I think I will only buy with him when things run out.  I'm not to sure about him being completely grass-fed.  I think he does a mixture based on what I overheard when he was talking to another customer.  Instead, I'll be buying from this farm.  He delivers to my area.  I may eventually join his CSA.  

My goal for the farmers market was to buy mint for a sauce.  When I got there, the lady only sold the plant, not just the lives. Sooooo, to get mint, I had to buy the ENTIRE plant.  I asked her how to care  for it.  She gave me instructions how to break off mint leaves and water the plant appropriately. She emphasized watering the plant over and over.  She said it would need a bigger pot, too.  When I signed up for Paleo, I never thought I being growing herbs, too???!!!! 









Breakfast:  Paleo Quiche w/Crust topped with avacado & salsa

Lunch:

  • Tuna Fish Salad (avacado, dill, onion, cucumbers)
  • Zucchini Muffin
  • Coconut Milk blended with Ice & Banana, I threw in a dash of cinnimon (its quickly becoming one of my favorite drinks!!!)

Snack:
  • Left over meatloaf & sautéed mushrooms

Dinner:
  • Chuck Pot Roast (Onions & Cabbage)
  • Salad with lime for dressing & crushed almonds on top
  • Eggplant
  • BBQ sauce

I tried to make a mint sauce.  It was NOT good.  I've got to figure out the right balance of mint to cucumber to make it taste good.

CRAVING:  I want cupcakes after seeing a commercial.  But I'm not hungry.  I just had a huge meal, but I want a cupcake sooooo bad.  Soooo bad  *sigh*

  1. Wow! It's been 10 days already. 1/3 of the way through! Too bad the mint sauce didn't work out. Oh well. There's always next time. You likely want to get some fish oil. It sounds like you have some inflammation due to the omega 6 concentration in the fat you're burning. Overall this day looks like some great food. Yay you!

  2. As much as those cravings suck, I'm glad you're feeling them. You were abating those cravings with the fruit before, but now you should be able to fully break the sugar/carb addiction and see more significant changes in your health. Tough it out for a few days and they'll pass.
