7/31 Sun
All Paleo, all day - too many pumkin seeds
8/1 Mon
back on to egg fritata in AM, chicken ceaser at lunch, steak snack and steak salad dinner.
rough few days being sick and stressing over work so much, but went to gym anyway. only one free day in all of this? I'll take it.
5pm drinks... had a soda and made it look like a cocktail. lied!
Then was poured wine and sipped on half a glass.. not bad for a night out with clients! total 0.5 drinks!
dinner- left over meatball soup from Everyday Paleo
almonds
2 oz mozzarella
Still feeling weak after yesterday's procedure. First day back to work. Determined to CF - did 4 times last week and felt GREAT!
Ate eggs/spinach to start the day off right. Knew I had a big client lunch.
they brought in trays of sandwiches and chips. I took two and thew out the bread and ate the meat and cheese and that's it. of course I got so many stupid questions. I just went with "I think I have a gluten allergy"
So ridiculous
Dinner. Albondigas! From Daily Paleo Book! SOOOOOOOO good!
no other snacks, good day! was worried I would screw it up do to physical exhaustion and stress. Thank god I stuck with it! No alcholol.
Monday 7/25
Had to be put under for small medical procedure which sucked
woke up and all I wanted to do was order a pizza as I felt like I "deserved it" after such a bad 48 hours.
Remembered Chris's words about "if you know you have to log it, you might not eat it" and they worked. I could not imagine having to say that.
So I had eggs and sausage. Was still sooooo hungry (no food for 36 hours before procedure) so I forced us out to University Cafe where I was going for a burger. Got there and changed my mind once again to be good. Got an open turkey and swiss sandwhcih and only ate the meat and cheese. had a few bites of bread for the first time this month, a cup f tomato soup and called it might cheat meal... MUCH better then a pizza!
The snacked on tuna salad, allowed myself 4 crackers.
all in all, not a bad day. could have been a LOT worse! This challange is really helping.
Sunday7/25
Having to prepare for a colonoskopy tomorrow to see where some of my stomach pains are coming from. Have felt better since no gluten. Hmm...
Was not allowed to eat ALL day. So long intermittent fast! had to drink 18 servings of stool moving clear stuff. yuck.
Many friends coming over tonight for dinner. Allowing myself to have some wine, but not eat poorly
There were pita chips and crackers galore, but had NONE! Just celery and veggies with a little yogurt dip.
3 glasses of wine, which was surprising too much after not drinking. - 2nd time having anything to drink since challenge started. Not 100%, but better the the EVERY night drinking I was doing before this! I'll take a 90% on this!
Steak, onions, chicken, Snacked on some cheese, but no crackers.
No desert. Had a bite of homemade purple root rice to try it, it was so good. Some palep people say rice is not bad... is it?

Eggs and Spinach - late breakie
3pm lunch, we had leftover chicken breast, 1/2 piece of white corn, broccoli

No alcohol even though all my friends were drinking at Prepare for the Playa!
NO ALCOHOL SINCE CHALLENGE STARTED! (stop laughing... I want points damn it!)
Would have been a perfect day but got munchies again around 10pm and had more pumkin seeds. Maybe this is not bad but it feels like it is. Need a new snack, bought celery to try!
Sat July 16 Day 6
Still no alcohol. Boring weekend, but at least went to Half Moon Bay to be social.
Eggs and Paleo chicken sausage for breaki
Lunch at the Brewery, didn't even WANT a beer. Starting to feel really good. Had a chicken ceaser salad with barely any dressing.
Dinner - leftover ribs, broccoli, corn (half a piece of white corn).
At early, still hungy.
25 more pumpkin seeds, 2 sugar free Popsicle, 5 cherries.
Need to come up with something for the 8pm-11pm time frame . Still really munchy, eating too much here I think and this is wen I STRETCH paleo. Like Jello with 5 calories, can't be that bad, but not paleo..
