Whole30, Day 2
Well, day 2 went off with out a hitch! More eating good in the neighborhood. The only thing I miss is sweetener in my coffee. The coconut milk just doesn’t cut it! Is it ironic that out of all the things I’m cutting out, what I miss most is Splenda?! Overall, I’ve been following all the rules (as in, I haven’t broken a single rule), but I’m going to try to do a better job of following the Whole30 meal template. Mostly this just means more veggies with my breakfasts and that my pre-workout snacks need some work.
According to the Whole30 Timeline I should be feeling: “The Hangover. And it is definitely true that the amount of suck you experience in this phase is directly proportional to the amount of crap you consumed before you began the program.”
How I’m feeling: So, what’s the big deal? Today was just as easy as yesterday, and I feel great. Kind of ironic, given the beer and junk food bender I was one right before kicking things off!
Pre-workout Snack: 1/2 Banana and a spoonful of almond butter
Breakfast: Leftover pulled pork with avocado and two fried eggs
Lunch: Avocado-Stuffed Turkey Meatballs with Roasted Brussels Sprouts
Pre-workout Snack: Egg white omelet with cinnamon, a handful of blueberries and almond butter. This was a little weird. I think I’m going to cook up some hard-boiled eggs, so I have easy protein on hand for pre-workout snacks.
Dinner: Buffalo chicken egg white muffins with avocado and a power green salad (broccoli, brussels sprouts, chicory and kale)
