Whoopsie. Last week has been garbage. Schedule has been totally off... I think I ate Pirates Bootie for dinner one night. Rosamunde Bratwurst w Sauerkraut and ate half the bun yesterday. went out to dinner on Tuesday and had to try the Mac n Cheese - Shit -- Friday ordered delivery from Blue Plate at work - squash definitely had butter. tried my friends mac n cheese that night - (Blue Plate's Mac n Cheese = worthy cheat FYI). Beretta's Steak and cauliflower on Saturday & had some of the fingerling potato's. oh yeah and I ate an english muffin on Sunday that i had originally pulled off my breakfast sangwich but was too starving later and had nothing on me so I gobbled it up. wasn't even good. And last night had 2 glasses of red wine and some tequila which by the way is the f'n worst combination out there. Drunk popcorn party. and yes I feel like crap. oooh there was some ice cream w my man one of my nights off too. Dairy irritates my asthma. um duh, maybe I shouldn't eat it. I'm a dummy sometimes.

Confession complete.

9.24.11 - 9.26.11
Had a bunch of different things planned for my weekend and I kept finding myself stuck in situations where the food available was not Paleo - started to actually get really frustrating. This is definitely an issue I have not mastered - how to prepare for paleo eating when I am not in charge of the food preparation....

None of the slip ups where extreme - but it just seemed like every meal had a little something that didn't quite cut it. 9.26.11 was pretty good except I think there was a little butter and probably sugar in the food I ate.

* Personal Record today at work – either the worst mess up or best hustle. Yet to be determined.

ate poorly all day. Cookie. All kinds of garbage.

9.17.11 –9.19.11
Ate well, except popcorn. Picked up where I left off on the detox with supplements and tea’s - feeling better already

Lessons:
1) Preparing Foods well before stressful work deadlines is a must because those are not the days I want to make an exception and indulge.
2) Need to work on the Hangover diet. Saturday should be a good test.
3) I am addicted to popcorn and it is out of control. Ever since I moved and now have a microwave – And found out that those store bought microwave popcorn bags are not magic. You can just put organic Kernels in a brown paper bag, tape it and microwave it for 2 minutes. Who knew? Not me. Totally addicted.
