Saturday/Sunday, Nov. 6th & 7th

*Rest Days*

Saturday:

Breakfast:
grapefruit, almonds
black coffee

Lunch:
shrimp, guacamole
carrots & salsa

Snack:
leftover rice, refried beans
*Not Paleo....but they don't send me running for more the way sugar does. Shared them with my boy and we had a great time watching cartoons and taking turns with the bowl.

Dinner:
Lunch and snack were late in the day, so I had a few bites of leftover shrimp and more carrots and salsa. Good stuff.

Sunday:

Breakfast:
Bacon & egg taco....and I actually ate the tortilla. It wasn't all that good. I really can live without tortillas.
Starbucks coffee (not my favorite, but it works)

Lunch:
More leftover shrimp (I made a lot of it), carrots and salsa

Dinner:
I made a sort of casserole with eggs, turkey bacon, spinach, mushrooms, sundried tomatoes. Should have left the sundried tomatoes out and used fresh tomatoes or salsa as a topping. It also needed some peppers and onions. We'll try again.

I managed to go the whole weekend (I think today is actually day 5) without any sugar. Finally. Each day gets a little easier. And in kicking the sugar habit again, I've noticed my anxiety level has gone down. Today I had a mental breakthrough on my paper that I'm supposed to be writing and I know this has everything to do with the more relaxed state of being that comes from living without sugar. Praise Jesus. I was getting really nervous about the fast-approaching end of this semester but now I know I can finish this and not drive myself crazy in the process.
