Whole 30, day 4


Except for the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, this picture of a car bursting into flames on a messy road in Raleigh is real.  I have friends who were stuck for hours.  No one expected ice, or so very fast.  Kinda glad I'm in Florida right now.

AM: 1 mile walk

Breakfast: greek meatloaf with tomatoes
Lunch: baked chicken chopped up in a big veggie salad with guacamole for the dressing.
Snack: 12 almonds and strawberries, then 1/4 cup pistachios when I got home
Dinner: baked salmon, roasted broccoli, sweet potato and mixed fruit

T25: Today was the abs workout, which included a few "sprints" in between, just to keep the suffer level high.  I was seriously tasting those raw peppers in my lunch salad!  Ugh.

Tomorrow is Valentine's day.  My husband is hundreds of miles away, so I don't plan to do anything special.  I am considering stopping and buying myself a steak, but I would have to do it in a frying pan since I don't have a grill.  Undecided.  I have nothing scheduled for dinner tomorrow except the crock pot leftovers that I didn't enjoy when I had them for lunch.  Which sounds a little too masochistic to eat for dinner on Valentine's day when I'm alone.  Maybe a nice meal I prepare for myself with care will allow me to avoid any potential pity party.


Saw this and had to laugh, but thankfully this hasn't been me on my Whole 30 - at least so far! :-)

Sounds like a good idea to be kind to yourself and prepare something nice and have a relaxing evening. It's a good way to relieve the stress of being apart. Good luck with the Whole30 :)

does your oven not have a broiler section? you could do your steak in that. Or, order steak to go from a restaurant...just order plenty in advance. Sorry you will be alone.

You are doing good!!
