Honestly, these days were pretty easy. My energy was up, I wasn't having stomach issues, and I never really felt like I was hungry. I may have overdosed on plantain chips a bit though - those things are so addicting.
I wasn't really inspired this week to do a lot of crazy cooking. Simple meals were on the menu. I just wasn't feeling it.

How is the Whole30 going for you? Try any new yummy paleo recipes lately?
You're a champ! I got so sick of eggs by day 3 I had to start getting creative. I kinda hate eggs anyway so breakfast was always an issue for me.
ReplyDeleteyum! i'm 100% going to try to make that hearts of palm dip!
ReplyDeletebeen loving cauliflower "rice" - under chili (beanless) or mixed with veggies & eggs as a fried rice too.
