Whole 30 — Day 15
It’s the half-way point of this Whole 30 and I’m feeling pretty motivated. I was able to stay on track at work and it was a nice, quiet day because today is some holiday on our campus. Felt pretty snazzy all day today and although the smell of the chocolate cake layers my daughter smelled…

Whole 30 — Day 12, 13, and 14
If you had a betting pool going on whether I dropped out, I hope you bet ON me rather than AGAINST me. I’m still here, baby! Just been very busy running kids to and fro and have been hitting the hay before I’ve had time to blog. My oldest started high school with a freshman-only…

Whole 30 — Day 12
Today was one of the only days so far where I have felt I properly planned for an entire day of Whole 30 loveliness. I remembered to take the baked chicken to school for lunch. I had a side order of Fuji apple with it. For dinner, I baked a salmon filet in the oven…

Whole 30 — Day 11
Another rocky start to the day. Somehow, the morning ran from me and I found myself having only consumed an apple and a cup of coffee when it was time to leave for my daughter’s high school orientation event. Ugh. And, yes, ice cream and pink lemonade were served. Funnily enough, I didn’t really want…

Whole 30 — Day 10
It appears the answer to “So, exactly when will I be hungry for something?” is TODAY. I enjoyed two eggs and some grapes for breakfast. I couldn’t quite bring myself to open an avocado. Without my oldest here to eat the other half, I’d feel obligated to eat more than a bit and that usually…

Whole 30 — Day 08 and 09
I was asleep by ten o’clock last night, so blogging didn’t happen. Tonight, I won’t be far behind that mark. This Whole 30 is really weird. I’m still on the plan, even with not making all my own meals. But, it’s so weird. I have absolutely no appetite. None. Nada. Nope. I wasn’t really hungry,…

Whole 30 — Day 07
Nothing overly spectacular to report today. My work cranked up the pressure this week and I am not ready to admit summer is pretty much over and my new students arrive in another week. My days of wearing jeans are drawing to a close and very soon “professional dress” will mean stuffy suits and no…

Have you tried Tessamae’s?
After diving into the Whole 30 and researching more about Paleo, I heard lots of devout admiration for Tessamae’s. Because I’m trying to be uber good this Whole 30, I had not so much as gazed upon the website because I didn’t want to fall in love with the idea of something that was Paleo,…

Whole 30 — Day 06
Day 6 means the Whole 30 is 1/5 done. Can I do this five more times? I’d be lying if I said that today weren’t the first day in recorded history that I drove past Sonic with my window down and actually smelled the waffle cones/sugary sweetness of something forbidden. I should say, though, that…

Whole 30 — Day 05
Today was harder. I failed to plan which left me ravenous by the end of the day. My bad. It was so ridiculous that I didn’t even go to the door when the Schwan’s man came. I hid. Because I knew if I opened that door and he was the only thing between me and…
