Day 30

Are you kidding me?  It's day 30 already?!?!?  That's crazy.  I pretty much don't believe it.  In shock.  Surprised that I really did it.

Here we go Day 30!

Breakfast: Two pieces of frittata topped with avocado and tomato, a side of rosemary sweet potatoes a sliced cucumber.

Snacking: I had a rough morning...it's a long story...and nothing actually too rough about it-I was just irritated and annoyed by a series of events, each one becoming more irritating than the last.  I realized I was really hungry, and no wonder, it was approaching noon.  Two clementines while I made lunch.

Lunch: Kale chips (YUM!!!) and a BLTEG salad.  Yep, thats bacon, tomato, cucumber, onion, red pepper, two eggs and a heap of guac over a bed of mixed greens.  Just what I needed to turn my attitude around.

Snacking: Yep, two snacks today and both fruit.  Well, it's hot out and I didn't get nearly enough calories at lunch...poor planning, but I'm hungry and this pear is juicy and with the weather it seemed like a perfectly refreshing snack.  I munched on this while driving down the interstate with the sunroof open, enjoying the beautiful view of my city bathed in sunlight.  Deal with it.

Workout: Shaun T must have missed my face today.  I ditched him in favor of the 90 degree day and took the girls to the park.  They played as the dog and I walked laps around the park.  30+ minutes...I think that qualifies as "recovery" which is what this week is about.

Dinner: Made spaghetti for the girls with broccoli and warm buttered homemade (by Lucy) wheat bread.  I had pesto spaghetti squash with chicken sausage, red peppers and tomato.  Broccoli and a side of zucchini.  I still looked longingly at the bread.  It smelled really amazing!

Thoughts:
Like I said, I am in shock that I actually did this.  And, no cheats...other than the carrot cake which wasn't a true slip-up because it was planned...but still, technically I guess I did cheat.  Whatever.

I've learned a lot from this past month.  I'll sum up my thoughts in a blog in the next few days...right now, I'm going to enjoy the fact that I finally accomplished something I set out to do and have my roomie measure me and see where I'm at in comparison...details soon.

Happy End Of Whole30!
