Before I left for the gym I ate an apple and some almond butter. I spent a little over an hour there and I made sure to take a few selfies so I can document my progress.
Afterwards I made some iced coffee with homemade creamer and I added some gelatin. I thought maybe I could use it to get a little extra protein. I added an entire pack and I think I may only need a sprinkle or two. It began to solidify a little so I would get little gel clusters coming through the straw every now and then. It was interesting but I didn’t mind.
I began to experiment a little. I was going to make chia pudding to have on hand for the week, only this time I used canned coconut cream instead of coconut milk. It comes out a little thicker this way. Before I added the chia seeds I saw a bowl of berries in my fridge and I thought, ‘I wonder what this would taste like’ and I added them to my pudding. I am so glad I did because it tasted amazing! At first it was like cheesecake and then it was like yogurt. All goodness. I’m thinking I may eat it for breakfast.
I didn’t really eat lunch today. I just kind of snacked on pineapple and I wasn’t hungry after that.
For dinner I had an amazing idea. I warmed up a hamburger patty and I put a fried egg on top. Don’t knock it ‘til you try it! I also added bacon and avocado. So freakin’ good! I had a side of watermelon with chile too. I couldn’t believe it but when I was done I was full. I couldn’t imagine eating anything more. I know I’ve mentioned this before but my appetite has changed so much since I began the Whole 30.
I was planning on eating a second apple tonight to make up for the one I missed yesterday but I’m still full. I will have to double up tomorrow instead.
Goodnight ya’ll!
17 days complete. 13 more to go.
