So morning of day 6...or should I say day 3 since I found out that I
didn't look close enough at the
nitrate free cruelty free bacon that
was in my sweet potato hash for the first few days and found out that it
too had sugar. That is what I get for trying to shop with my son who
rushes me in the grocery store. I was so bummed about it that I had a
hard time falling asleep last night. Then my dog had an upset tummy in
this middle of the night which kept me up for a couple hours during the
time of night when I normally get my best sleep. I went to make
breakfast of scrambled eggs with green peppers and ham...Boar's head ham
is supposed to be compliant, but almost all the varieties at my local
store had a sugar or honey glaze. I bought the boiled version since no
sugar, and just before I was about to put it in the skillet I looked at
the package and noticed that it has MSG in it. sigh....I cried. Maybe I
should also mention I have possibly the biggest job interview of my
career this afternoon. I'm trying to get out of this funk but
I'm am on
the verge of saying "to hell with it!"
Or I was until I called my mother for support. Instead of getting support though, I got comments like "It is too hard and too restrictive." and "I don't think you can do it for 30 day. You should stop now and just try my diet." What?!?!?! My mom has been "dieting" for years and hasn't lost any weight. She eats to few calories and doesn't eat a balance between protein, fat, and good carbs. Newsflash mom...there is a reason you aren't losing weight. Stop subscribing to the archaic idea that you can lose weight alone by just cutting calories!
I am no longer sad. I'm angry and I am going to stick with this and add 3 days on to the end of the 30 to make up for the first 3 I messed up on.
Here is my day 5 recap:
Breakfast:
3 deviled eggs (6 halves)
apple
chai green tea with coconut milk
Lunch:
sweet potato hash (sans bad bacon)
leftover asian beef lettuce wraps
Dinner:
Chicken salad (chicken, olive oil mayo, apples, celery, chives, raisins, chopped pecans, and a touch of vinegar)
fresh spinach leaves
