Okay, this might sound really odd. Since I've taken simple sugars out of my diet, I can taste natural sugars more than I ever have been able to before, and I'm absolutely lovin it!
I don't know how to describe it, but it is awesome! I crave apples and sweet potatoes.
Breakfast:
- egg whites
- oatmeal pancakes topped with cinnamon applesauce and dried cranberries
- coffee
Mid-morning:
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt with blueberries and honey
This same snack did not taste as good to me about 6 weeks ago. Isn't that weird?!
Lunch:
- 4 oz turkey
- 1 slice Ezekiel bread
- Cucumbers
- 2 tablespoons red pepper hummus
This was a great lunch. I love hummus. :)
Mid-afternoon:
- 1 apple with fresh ground peanut butter
One of the favorite childhood snacks is reborn!
Dinner:
- Steamed green beans
- Grilled sweet potatoes (1/2 potato)
- 3 oz chicken breast topped with applesauce
When you eat sweet potatoes almost every day, you have to come up with new ways to eat them! Today I baked the potatoes for about 20 minutes to soften them, then chopped them up, seasoned them (with tarragon, allspice, and salt), and threw them on the grill! They were really good that way. Almost like a smokey flavor. What can I say, I'm diggin applesauce these days. :) Yummy!
Exercise:
I was bad again today. Crap!
