FIVE DAYS

Well its been 5 days now and we seem to be getting on OK not really missing the bread for breakfast.  We have had some good breakfasts with Avocado and baby spinach and eggs.  I would like to find some breakfast ideas that don't involve eggs just for variety.

So far I have only had 1 indiscretion, chocolate cake unfortunately I couldn't resist.  I made it and I wanted to at least taste it but on the bright side I usually would have had more than one piece but I stuck to the one.  An achievement for me.  Black coffee and Tea as becoming the norm and we are enjoying it.  We both agree that the cuppacino makes you feel bloated and we both have always felt that Wheet Bix and Milk for breakfast sat very heavy. So not missing the Wheat or the Dairy.

Lester is still in trial mode and has had a few beers in the afternoon and had to be stopped from grazing on cheese etc at he usually does in the afternoon.  He says its not official yet :-)

I think the thing is miss most is the fruit.  I am used to eating at least 4 pieces a day and I am limiting it to 2 as I know its very high in sugar and that's what I need to cut down on if I want to loose weight.

Generally we both agree we feel better.  Certainly we both have more energy and hopefully this will get even better as we go on.

Holidays start today and we are off to Melbourne for the cup so there will be lots of eating drinking at least on that day.  I am sure we will have happy hour most afternoons with some beer and bubbly as well as some nibbles but we will try to be selective in what we eat and drink.  It is amazing how empty the fridge and cupboard is without any processed food.  You can only carry so much fresh food so we will pick it up on the road maybe we will find some good roadside fruit and veg along the way.

11th November will be the first official Whole 30 day.
