Whole30 Day 12

First of all, thank you guys for your kind words yesterday.  I get an alert on my phone every time someone comments on here and so your comments made me feel better all afternoon.  That's one of the reasons I blog- great support group with amazing blogger friends.

Second of all, I took everyone's advice the other day about meal planning.  My meal planning changed drastically.  Actually, you might not see much meal prep on here...  I'll explain more later.  Another reason why I blog- advice and accountability from those amazing blogger friends.

Third of all, I checked in with my list of whole30 bloggers today.  You guys are amazing.  Need another reason why I blog?- inspiration from those amazing blogger friends!

Breakfast:

Beef, broccoli, bok choy, and carrots.  Topped with sunshine sauce.

Lunch:

Leftover paleOMG glazed blackberry pork chops with cauliflower rice.


I was hungry this afternoon so I made a snack of one hardboiled egg and a little bit of avocado mashed together.

Dinner:

I love burgers.  I topped these with homemade paleo mayo, avocado, mustard, and relish.  All whole30 approved.  Plus a side of salt and vinegar cabbage.

Tonight was pizza, popcorn, and a movie night for us.  Last Friday I felt pretty left out so this Friday I was prepared.  
I ate a little snack with the kids.  Defrosted berries nuked in the microwave for about 30 seconds.  Topped with sliced almonds and homemade almond milk.  I didn't even want the popcorn!

Exercise:
Does pushing a grocery cart count?  That's what I did instead of going to the gym.

How I feel:
I scrambled out of bed this morning at 5:30.  I have been setting my alarm for 5:30 instead of 6 so I have more alone time.  The little birds wake up at 7 so I have from 5:30-7 to shower and then do whatever I want.  I'm not sure if it's the whole30 or the fact that I get time by myself with coffee that jolts me out of bed.  Either way I love it.

I hit a little low this afternoon.  I felt just blah.  Blah with this whole30 thing, blah with the way my body looks, blah.... Has anyone else had that?
