Day 4 observations:
I'm back baby! Woke up feeling refreshed and ready to take on Day 4. I decided I needed to get more creative with my food. Since it was cinco de mayo, I took ground turkey and cooked it with a little bit of low sodium taco seasonings. Then I combined this with a half of avocado, some fresh corn (it's technically not on the approved vegetable list but it was fresh and it was just a smidgen) and my new favorite dressing - a little plain Greek yogurt mixed with a little taco seasoning. I mixed it all together and Voila! A super yummy and super satisfying taco salad. If only I could have had a margarita to go with it...But the best part of my day happened in the afternoon. We took the kids to the indoor pool in the mid morning. They swam and played for a good 3 hours and thoroughly wore themselves out. We came home and everyone crashed including my husband - everyone except for me! While my whole family slept, I felt great. Not tired at all!!! I was able to enjoy some quiet me-time and then I did the dishes and picked up the house. This BY FAR exceeds any weight loss. I was so sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. If this continues and my energy level stays consistent throughout the day, then this was all worth it. Pretty exciting stuff.
Rock on g'friend! Keep it up!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I hate feeling sluggish when Sean naps- when I could get me time or do chores or get creative with Erin.
