Sometimes a good cup of coffee is the only reason to get out of bed on a cold morning. However, since I've eliminated flavored creamer from my coffee the thrill is gone. I almost took almond breeze to Starbucks to ask them to make me a latte. Would that be bad?
I'll stop whining about no creamer in my coffee and show you the local produce store that I found blocks from my house. All local. I picked up some great veggies yesterday for my week.
Today's breakfast was small banana/almond smoothie around 7:a.m. I started to feel hungry around 9:30 am so I ordered 1 egg +2 eggwhites, spinach, onion and 1 pieceof bacon in a scramble with hot sauce of course. I like that the guys on the kitchen line are always accomodating.
Then I met a friend for coffee around noon but instead of drinking coffee, I brought an apple and next thing I know, it was time to head back to work. It was hard to stay on task today. I still feel out of it. I read toay that the elminating carb flu symptons last about 1-3 weeks. It's getting better that's for sure. It was nice not to have a head ache all day.
Lunch was at 2:30. Turkey burger sans the bun.
I got busy paginating our next issue of the journal. I have a great board this year and the files that I receive are clean which makes me smile. I'm enjoying this while I can as I'll be getting a new batch of students in April and there's definitely a learning curve for them.
Can I share something funny? I received a text from my friend Delia asking me how I liked the new zumba class we took on Friday. I responded with great. Then she texted back "we're a couple of zumba whores." LOL. She made me laugh so hard with that comment.
I knew tonight's zumba class would be intense and I did not want to feel light headed so I had 1/2 a baked sweet potato. Sweet potato is controversial on the paleo blogs but I think I needed a little carbs for the workout. It did the trick. No lightheadedness and I made it through class..
I took Rosa (stuffing my feelings) suggestion and weighed myself after work. I am jumping for joy. I am down 4 pounds in 6 days. I don't know how I'm losing weight because it seems lke I'm eating more. I'll take it.
After shweaty zumba, I came home and made dinner: scalions, fresh green beans and chicken/spinach sausage.
These green beans were delish.
Well, I'll end this post very happy and 4 lbs lighter. Off to clean the kitchen and shower. Have a great evening.
