Well today when I woke up I wasn’t feeling it. But by the time I ate breakfast and got moving I had a much better outlook. Then I did something you’re not supposed to do on Whole30 and I weighed myself. You guys, I am down 9 lbs in 9 days! I am so thrilled. But now I am going to stay off until day 30.

I had eggs and sweet potato spirals for breakfast and while eggs aren’t my favorite that breakfast really fuels me and I feel good after I eat it. Then I went and did an Alzheimer’s Fundraiser walk with my friend, Heather. I walked to the walk and home so I ended up having 10,000 steps by noon!

Then I was panicked because I was going home to an empty house thirsty and starving with no plan whatsoever. So, I started planning on my walk mentally going over what I had at home. I decided to have a glass of water and an RX bar as soon as I got home.

These bars have saved my life on this Whole30. Then I prepared chicken salad with some chicken thighs I had made in the crock pot earlier this week, compliant mayo, scallions and grapes. I put it over romaine with a drizzle of Tessemae’s Balsamic Vinaigrette. It was satisfying and filling and I didn’t feel like shit after I ate it.

Then Craig, Henry and I drove to Trader Joe’s which is about 40 minutes away. Henry slept the whole time we drove down there, I shopped and we drove back. After going to TJ’s I felt much better about my week and the Whole30 in general. I was starving when we got home at 4, probably because of my walk, and ate a combination of these two things and it was amazing.

Coconut cashews are amazing. I will be going back for these!

We hung out for a while and then Craig grilled dinner.

And now I am relaxing on the couch before I do some house work. I might have a Kombucha later, my new obsession.

Hope everybody is having a great weekend!
