What Are You Doing/Eating Today? (Thursday)

Up at the wrong time again. I'll probably get an hour more. Off to a training session this morning.

Two days left of my Whole Life Challenge. 56 days went by fast! Learned a lot about how much better my body responds to Paleo eating and training. I recover faster, it seems. Bu****ch for a small incorporation of dairy in my menu soon, yay cheese!

b: banana and almond butter (before workout), protein shake after

s: beef jerky

l; spaghetti squash and pork sauce (again and probably tomorrow too lol)

s; roasted chick peas

d; bacon and eggs mmm

have a great day all!

Yay cheese indeed!

Work today and a late doctor appointment, I'll bring a late snack/small dinner with me to keep me going. Perhaps I'll wander through the mall to kill time in between - time for spring wardrobe shopping!

8.5 years post-op

- coffee with cream x 3 over the day -

B - Premier protein shake

S - Greek yogurt, handful of grapes

L - 3 oz chicken, spinach salad, poppy seed dressing

S - ham/cheese/pickle roll-ups (3); later: Chike protein iced coffee

D - 1 cup chili from the freezer, 2 melba rounds topped with old cheddar

S - likely just tea with a little milk

Have a good one,

K. :)

This might be the first year that i'm not buying new clothes for spring/summer!! Well maybe a spring jacket, but that's it. Yay!

My spring/summer wardrobe consists of 1 dress, 2 blouses and a whole lotta shorts and T's. The last time I wore business attire in the spring/summer was 2012 prior to my illness and I've long since cleaned out the closets since then. Not a lot of call for business wear in the hospital/on the couch, not to mention I weigh about 20 pounds lighter since then. :/

Good morning everyone and thanks so much for the positive words yesterday. The cravings are getting better and having a snack immediately on hand definitely helps.. Last night it was tea that helped along with sugar free pudding 😊

Todays a big day for activity and it will be interesting to see if I can stay with my eating plan.. Early morning work out.. Work then teach 2 Zumba classes 😳

B: hi protein oatmeal with almond milk 

S: med coffee 

L: 2 boiled eggs

s: premier protein 

d: jerk chicken with spinach salad

s: tea sugar free jello

Aiming for 30,000 steps today!! Also still haven't done 2 L of water.. The most this week is 1.5L... I'm going for it today 😊

Have a great day 😊

Good for you, Tameka. I know I feel like a deer in headlights and find myself standing in the middle of my kitchen with the fridge and freezer AND cupboards open looking for a snack - I combat this by having ready-made snacks. I also make a list of what prepared foods I have in the fridge/freezer and post it on the door so I can remind myself of what's in there and make a decision without scavenging. Works for me! ;)

That's a great idea Karen! I'm going to use that tip.. I'm a very visual person so a list on the fridge will definitely redirect me 😊

Have you tried flavouring your water?  For me that was the only way I could get in all of my water.  I like orange/mango flavouring and orange/pineapple.

That's a really good idea... Thanks ❤️
