Whole 30 Day 9

As following the Whole 30 plan I have not stepped on a scale since Day 1.  In fact I told my husband that I'm so curious to know if I've lost even a pound or two but then on the other hand I would be so discouraged and disappointed it the scale hadn't budged. I know that I should be looking at this in terms of getting my eating and health back on track but I would be lying if I told you that the weight wasn't important also.  This morning I was quite surprise and pleased with myself.  First of all, I woke up feeling great again as I have been for the last several mornings.  Its nice to start your day feeling refreshed not like you have been hit by a truck.  But really the best part of the day was when I put my jeans on fresh out of the drier and I didn't have to suck it in to button them.  Girls and guys you know exactly what I'm talking about.  The "suck in" to get the button done and hope that the waistband will stretch soon.  My pants were feeling good today!  This morning reaffirmed to me that what I'm doing is working.  I feel good, have more energy and my pants are fitting better!

Breakfast:
Leftover fritatta (last 2 pieces)
Coffee 12 oz 1 tbsp coconut milk

Lunch:
1 whole avocado with balsamic/olive oil dressing
1 piece bacon
1/2 apple

So my lunch sucked and in all honesty I was starving.  I ate the avocado while I was hard boiling some eggs.  I got sidetracked working in the yard planting some flowers and before I knew it it was 3:00 and all I had to show for it was a hungry belly, pretty flowers in the yard and a sunburn.  No bueno (except for the flowers).

Snack:
2 hard boiled eggs this held me over until dinner.

Dinner:
Paleo "breaded" baked chicken.  I thought it was pretty darn tasty dipped in "ranch" dressing as my kids call it which is really homemade mayo with a little extra spices and vinegar.
Sweet potato french fries
