Day 24

Man, I slept like a rock last night.  I woke up in the exact same position I fell asleep.  That hardly ever happens.  Lets get right to it...day 24, here we go!

Breakfast: The frittata I meant to have yesterday (full of squash, sweet pots, peppers, onions, mushrooms, bacon and spinach) topped with avocado, a side of broccoli and a banana with some berries/grapes.  The frittata was extra delicious today, not sure why, but it was.


Bevvie: It was a rough morning with one of the girls...she woke up with a spider bite, hurt her elbow on her sister's cereal bowl (don't ask me how...) and hurt her foot as she slipped down the wood stairs in her socks...we all needed a little stop at Sbux before school...they all got hot chocolates, I got a no sweetener passion tea...love it!


Workout: Plyometric Cardio Circuit today.  I actually feel like the videos are getting easier.  I don't sweat nearly as much and I'm able to do some of the moves at a faster pace.  Ok, so maybe it is working.

PWM: A burger patty topped with onion, mixed greens and a fried egg.  So delicious-reminds me of Paris...yum!


Lunch: I made a big taco salad with mixed greens, cucumber, red pepper, tomato, fajita chicken, lime juice and a mound of guac.  Really filling but I doubt it'll keep me full for very long...good thing I'm getting off work early and can make dinner at a decent hour.


Me Time: Yep, got a massage today at Mario Tricoci...I love that place.  Here is me, post massage, liven the life in their huge robe.


Bevvie: Had a Kombucha this afternoon on the way to pick up the girls.  Mmmm...I love mango!


Dinner: I was very hungry by the time dinner came around.  I threw some asparagus in the oven, some sweet pots in a pan and heated some chicken sausage and spaghetti squash with some pesto, topped with tomatoes and bam!  Dinner ready!  I ate way too fast and was still really hungry after I cleaned up the dishes.  I know I ate enough but I just scarfed it down.  I'm babysitting tonight so I'll take tea to make and load up my water bottle with ice cold water...that should do the trick.


Thoughts:
Page 24 from the book It Starts With Food
Well, now that I'm on day 24 of the Whole30, I figured it was about time I actually read the book about Whole30...I've only read a few chapters and so far nothing has really surprised me but it is great reading how it came to be and the science behind the food.  I don't think the book will rock my world, as I've been doing the actual plan but I do think it will be beneficial to find out the reasoning behind things...understanding the "why" always makes it easier for me to do things.  We'll see.  Ok.  I know this is a really short and blah post tonight but I'm babysitting screaming baby so it's just how it is.

Also, an update on my missing dentist...the mountain is still really dangerous so they can't attempt a recovery operation until at least Thursday of Friday.  There is a FB page dedicated to info and updates about him.  Find that here.  Thanks for your continued prayers.

So, tomorrow...day 25...I can't believe we're already in single digit countdown...man, this month has flown.  I'm really excited to weigh/measure myself in a few days...but I hope I don't get discouraged if it's not significant.  And, hopefully by reading this book I'll have a better idea of what to do starting May 1.
