Day 6 - Blah

Well today was tough. It was my first day off since starting really. I planned my day with activities - shopping for more Whole30 food and supplies and a nail appointment as well as some other errands.

It was highly discouraging to see the lack of available products without sugar, dairy or grains. Trying to find healthy alternatives for snacks and meals is not easy unless you go to specialty stores (which I did) and spend $65 on 8 items, most of which were dried fruit. I know, I know the investment will pay off in the long run. It sucks having to compromise in order to buy what I need that's for sure. Ok rant over.

Today was supposed to be the first day of the "I just want to nap" stage. I thought since I sailed through "the hangover" and "kill all the things" largely unscathed that I may get lucky for day 6. WRONG!!! I was exhausted and feeling blah all day.

Breakfast was a win! I finally got my "template" meal in before 9am!

Mashed sweet potato with sautéed spinach and chicken. It was so yummy!

Lunch was late as my nail appointment (and an unexpected bee in my car) caused me to be later than expected getting home. It was almost the same as above but with the leftover steak and mushrooms.

Dinner was buffalo chicken with oven "fries". I should have made a salad too. I'll get it figured out soon enough. 

Today I've been feeling yucky. I don't know if it was the switch to almond milk in my coffee or what but I've just been very low energy and yucky all day.

Tomorrow we are going to se Jurassic World. I'm so excited. I'll be making up a small bag of snack mix (from my gold plated dried fruit and Costco nuts) and having water. I know it will be a challenge because we always have popcorn. I'm hoping the dinosaurs will be enough entertainment.

Until tomorrow.
