Whole 30: Day 19


Breakfast: Scrambled egg, sausage and sweet potato noodles.

Lunch: Lettuce wraps with: pulled pork, cherry tomatoes, and sweet potato chips.  I have noticed I'm eating a LOT of sweet potatoes.  Maybe tone it down a bit...

Dinner: Meatballs and marinara with celery bits.  If you get annoyed by the strings with celery stalks, just chop them further into bite size pieces.  So much easier to eat!



Thoughts:  After my disregard of this Whole 30 Challenge yesterday, I returned quite easily today.  I felt pretty awful and smelled pretty awful after eating cereal and some cheese.  I am still recovering from the stomach ache and headache it gave me.  I didn't really feel guilty, like I "cheated" on my diet or anything, but I guess I just wanted confirmation that avoiding those foods is even worth it.  And you know, this way of eating may be more of a permanent thing for me than I thought.  I am not going to go crazy about added sugars in sauces at restaurants, or refuse sweets that people make me, but I probably won't eat grains or dairy on a daily basis.  As for Lincoln, his dairy experiment ended during the trip with a cream cheese bagel.  We aren't going back to cow's milk, but I didn't see enough of an added benefit keeping cheese out of his diet, too.

Oh, and despite my cereal yesterday, I still ate a Whole 30 lunch of coconut chicken and salad:
