Breakfast - an Aidell’s chicken sausage link, leftover potatoes and onions, leftover mayo/lemon/basil sauce. And 2 cups of coffee with almond/coconut milk. Carb-heavy, yes, but we’re getting there.

Whole30 day 3. Ate an egg, avocado, left over hash and ketchup for breakfast. Then ate the left over pork with an avocado for lunch/dinner. I started work at 10pm tonight. This is now technically day 4... I ate my "breakfast" or late dinner at 12 am which was the left over shepherds pie. And at around 5 am I ate stuffed peppers and mash potatoes that my friend Dara gave me. She's also partaking in the whole30 challenge. I'm probably going to go home and sleep. Wake up around 6 pm, go workout then eat something. We shall see!! I do know that the meals I'm eating is making me really gassy. I'm hoping this is an adjustment phase because even I can't take it anymore :(

Pork Chops With Balsamic Glaze | Paleo Leap

This easy recipe has a lot of favor without any advance marinating time required.

Day 3!!! Today wasn’t too bad. I need to drink a bit more water, but I managed to actually make a small breakfast today!! wooo!!

Bfast: Banana, a small handful of salted roasted almonds (I checked labels), unsweetened coconut shreds. Also 16oz unsweet iced tea with 1/2 a lemon squeezed into it.  I was kind of hungry by lunch but not too bad. I probably need a bit more protein into breakfast. I’m going to attempt eggs and 2 slices of bacon with avocado tomorrow!

Lunch: Leftover dinner, 2 of the chicken thighs with artichokes, olives, beets. 1 can of coconut water. Also 32oz of WATER!!

Dinner: I made the linked recipe, but I combined it with this pork chop recipe. I also made asparagus and topped it with a bit of the glaze. The bf and I loved this! He told me it’s the best yet, so that’s pretty good although we’re only on day 3! ;) I also used bone-in pork chops, but they cooked pretty much the same way. I combined the 2 recipes by cooking onions and whole30 approved bacon a bit then I seared the salted/peppered pork chops. I added a chopped apple, thyme, and brushed the chops with the glaze before throwing it all in the oven for 10ish minutes. At this same time I tossed in some glazed asparagus. SO GOOD. 

Effects: I don’t know if I’m really less puffy, but a shirt I don’t wear often and remember feeling a bit to tight last time feels like it’s fitting better. It could be in my head. My stomach feels less puffy too. I was a bit tired this morning getting out of bed and I know I’ve been having cravings but I haven’t noticed them too bad. I have been trying to keep fruit in my diet (in extreme moderation) so it might be helping. I haven’t been as tired in the afternoons. The lunch meal might have had enough protein to help me with that too.
