Day 1 - Review
How do I feel?
Meals for Today:
Breakfast - Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes
Overall, it wasn't too bad. Consisting of sweet potato, egg, bacon, onion, and garlic takes about an hour and fifteen minutes to put together, so it is definitely a weekend breakfast option or could be used as a side dish for chicken. I would not cook it as long during the twice-baked part as my egg was a little firmer than I usually care for. I would eat this again.
Lunch - Vegetable Soup
Another recipe from Paleo in 28.
I'll have to admit, that I was not looking forward to this meal. I have been anti-vegetable nearly my entire life. (I'll chalk this up to my mother force-feeding green beans to me as a young boy - not literally, but there was a battle of wills when green beans were involved.) This was, however, surprising okay. Yup, okay. That's as far as I'll go. The wife had this with rice and enjoyed it. I could eat this again, although I didn't find it very filling. Hopefully, it will get me through until dinner.
Dinner - Roasted Whole Chicken, Roasted Broccoli
Another recipe from Paleo in 28.
I looked forward to the chicken all afternoon. As for the broccoli, well, see my earlier post about vegetables. In the end, I didn't cook the broccoli. I just ate chicken - which was good - and decided that was good enough. I know that is a bad thing to do and is not sustainable, so I'll try to do better tomorrow.
