Whole30 Day 2

Disclaimer: Due to our broken AC, the little man and I stayed with my Momma last night so my meals were semi impromptu and ended up lacking in veggies (but not in deliciousness!). Also, my meals will be a little more appealing once I have the opportunity to go to the store so don't give up on me if you're looking at these posts and thinking "Blah. Those meals are boring." 1) They're so yummy 2) They'll get better...I just need to make a trip to the grocery. Mmkay...onto the important stuff.

Day 2

Breakfast:

Two organic, cage free eggs over-easy with strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries.

I mean, this is pretty straight forward and who wouldn't love it? I am a sucker for eggs over-easy.

Lunch:

Leftover taco meat topped with Muir Glen Organics Mild Salsa and guacamole. And more berries.

Seriously. I wish I made more of this because it is seriously THAT good!

Snack:

Apple Pie Lara Bar

If you haven't tried Lara Bars, you are missing out. For real. Super yummy and healthy. Score!

Dinner:

Aidell's Chicken & Apple Sausage with Roasted Asparagus (the whole bushel...because that's how I roll).

I cannot explain how good these sausages are. Mmm Mmm. And asparagus is a fav in my house. Even my 17 month old loves it. So, all you asparagus haters, stop hatin'! It's delish!

HOW I FEEL...

Good! I actually feel very energized (even at 10:30 PM when I am normally dozing off in the recliner) and I felt so focused at work today. Annnnddd, my headache is non-existent. Must've just been the heat as I suspected. I am slightly hungry but I think that has to do with the fact that today was super duper busy and I did not eat as much as maybe I should have oooor maybe I just did not eat as much as I usually do. Who knows. But I am okay with it. It's not like severe hunger pangs or even strong enough to make me feel like I need to eat. So, all and all I feel good! I am loving the simplicity and ease of the last two days. I am sure it will become tougher but hopefully not. Also, I have ZERO cravings. How does that happen?! I mean, I have been prayerful about this journey so I really should not be surprised because God is so awesome and even answers prayers about health journeys. I mean why wouldn't He?! He wants us to take care of our bodies probably more than we do; it is the only one He has given us. So thankful for Him.

Welp, that's all folks. Until tomorrow...

Sweet dreams and God Bless :)

Whole30 Days 14-23

When I started Whole30, it was my intent to write posts every day. Well, as you can tell, that just did not happen. I apologize. Life is just crazy and I simply have not had the time. So here is an update from the past week. Day 14 BREAKFAST: Sliced Banana with a scoop of Barney's Almond Butter Sunday mornings are super duper busy so quick breakfasts are all I have time for as I am usually running out the door at the last possible minute. My husband is a pastor so he heads to the church early so I have to get myself and our son ready. I should probably just wake up earlier so I can have a better breakfast on Sundays, but I prefer the sleep. LUNCH: Paleo Buffalo Chicken Wings with Roasted Broccoli and Whole30 Ranch Oh muh gooooosh guys. These wings were SO good. I totally ate like 6 of them. Seriously, click the link and make them like, right now. SO GOOD! DINNER: Aidell's Chicken & Apple Sausage with leftover Roasted Broccoli We also have eve...

Paleo Pancakes TWO Ways!

I have always been a breakfast eater but never really a pancake eater. I LOVE eggs, potatoes and french toast. Mmm Mmm. :) However, when I was pregnant with my son I craved pancakes like it was my job. Luckily for me, my husband is a fantastic pancake maker. I mean, seriously, he does not cook, like evverrr. But that man, boy he can make amazing pancakes and omelets....breakfast is definitely his forte...at least in the kitchen. But, sadly once lil man was born, the pancake-making stopped but my craving and love for pancakes did not. So, here we are over two years later, still loving pancakes. And believe it not, lil man loooooooves breakfast. It's the one meal I can count on him eating and loving 100% of the time. We usually have pancakes at least once a week. So, naturally, I had to move on from Aunt Jemima and Hungry Jack to something a little yummier and a lot healthier. Here are our favorite Paleo Pancake Recipes: Paleo Banana Pancakes 1 Banana (mashed) 2 Eggs 1 T...

Whole30 Day 3

Guys. Today I passed up on Spaghetti and Meatballs at Youth Group without a second thought. THIS. IS. A. BIG. DEAL. If you know me, you know that I love love LOVE Italian food. I mean seriously, the first two years my husband and I were married, he was convinced all I knew how to cook was pasta or tacos (I also LOVE Mexican food). I can cook but those are my favs and they're so easy peasy. He is used to Southern Cookin (he's a NC boy) and I don't know how to do that (although I have picked up a few recipes from my awesome mother-in-law). So, anyway I was pretty darn proud of myself. I did have the urge to take a big ole bite outta little man's garlic bread but I resisted. Anyhoo, here is how Day 3 went... Day 3 BREAKFAST: Melissa's Chicken Hash (from the new Whole30 book ) I did not have apple cider or walnuts so I used apple cider vinegar and sliced almonds. The recipe calls for arugula or baby spinach. I used baby spinach because that's what I...
