Whole 30 Week 2 Log

The next few posts are going to be my log from my whole 30 adventure.  Here is week 2:

B: sweet potato, onion, bacon, rx bar

L:  green beans, chicken salad, grapes, pineapple

D:  peppers, onions, chicken apple sausage

S: Plantain chips, guac

Falling into a groove....but running low on supplies!  Last week I prepped so much, but this week, not enough.  Looks like another trip to the grocery store!  

Day 9 - 14

This past week has been a whirlwind.  I was out of work for a few days for my teammate's funeral, then I was off for a wedding.  Didn't even get near a computer to log, but I have many successes this week!  I can't remember every meal, but I do remember my challenges each day!  So here it goes:

Wednesday:  My teammates funeral.  It was a really sad day, and a huge group of us went out to lunch.  I had a burger....no bun, no cheese, no mayo, but had the lettuce, onion and tomato and had a sweet potato...plain on the side.

Thursday:  I made cakes for a wedding (I also make cupcakes and cakes on the side, and I agreed to make these cakes months ago).  I can proudly say that I made the cakes with out eating anything.  No frosting, no batter, no cake.  I will usually taste the frosting to make sure it is right, but instead, my daughter offered to be my taste tester!  I am so proud that I was able to make those cakes without going off plan!

Friday:  Delivered the cakes to the venue, made a huge batch of chili.

Saturday and Sunday:  Brought the kids to my mom's house, so she could go to the wedding with my stepfather.  My parents are the caregivers for my step-grandmother (who is 94), and they can't do much without someone else being there.  So I took the kids and stayed there so they could have the weekend to get away.  My daughter and I made chocolate chip cookies (again, not even a taste!), and I made sure I stayed compliant all weekend!

With being away most of the weekend, I did not get to prep for this week....but I still have some chili left, and I will just have to make something else tonight. I am dying to weigh myself.  I almost talked myself into doing it this weekend, but I stayed strong!  I used to be a daily weigher, so this is quite the challenge!  But I keep reminding myself that this is more about eating healthy, not just losing weight (even though I need to lose quite a bit).  

Anyway, I just wanted to check in.  I am at my half way point!  Day 15!  Woohoo!!!
