Can you believe it? I only have 10 days left!!! I can see this as a lifestyle change, but we'll have to wait until Thursday when I have a checkup with my doctor. I hoping for positivity and good numbers.
Yesterday, I made a batch of zucchini muffins. Half had the just grapes (raisins) in them and the other half didn't. After a taste test, I like the ones withOUT the fruit better. Who would've ever thought that? Next time I go to whole foods, I'm going to buy the dried apple and try it instead of the grapes. . . maybe its the grapes that I don't care for. I really liked the ginger in muffins. But the orange juice & zest didn't work for me.
Breakfast: 2 zucchini muffins & 5 strips of bacon This is a perfect breakfast for me. I don't feel like I'm choking down the food.
Lunch: Raw Spinach topped with roast beef and pico. This pico and I are friends. . .I could probably make it myself. All thats in it: tomatoes, onion, cilantro, lime juice, jalapeño. Chopping the tomatoes will probably be the hardest part.
Snack: Paleo lasagna & 4 cubed pieces of honey dew melon
I tried something new with the Paleo Lasagna. . . instead of Italian sausage (which I really am not a fan of), I used bacon. And I tried to add in more veggies. So, instead of just layering the sauce with the zucchini, I layered in some bellpepper slices, raw spinach and mushrooms along with the zucchini.. It produced about a cup of liquid. I tilted the casserole dish and poured the extra liquid off and it was fine.
Dinner: Pork chop, eggplant casserole, turnip greens
You are just moving right along. I am interested to see what your doctor says on Thursday as well. I just realized that I will be out of town on your 30 days, so I'll need to make sure to send you the "what do I do now" e-mail this next week. I'm proud of you. You're doing super great! You don't even need us anymore, but we're definitely here for support and cheering.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for introducing me to this and being sooo patient with me as asked question after question. It means a lot that you think I could do this on my own. Now, I've just got to get into the blog reading to find out how other people do it after the 30 days.
