Northwest Cavegirls

I am sitting here in the garden watching the birds frustrate my cat Eddy, waiting for hubby to bring in a PCC rotisserie chicken and a tub of something paleo friendly from their deli. 

I stood on the scales this morning and saw 149 lb. Hoping my weight stays under 150 by Sunday, fingers crossed!

My meals for today…

Breakfast:

Same as yesterday

Lunch:

Mixed fruit and nut salad: strawberries, pineapple, apples, orange segments and a sprinkling of my paleo trail mix on top. 

Dinner:

Meet my new best friend…

About to try my Banana Walnut Bread warm out of the oven. Check back in the morning for the outcome and recipe. I’m thinking it is going to be very souffle’ish and more of a pudding than a bread. 

TTFN!

Hey there!

Today’s meals…

Breakfast:

I found a link to a great Paleo Cornbread Muffins (Cornless Cornbread!) recipe on Empowered Sustenance.

I doubled the batch and added a handful of raisins to the last half.

Along with sliced apples and raw honey this was a delicious breakfast.

Lunch:

Eldest daughter came by today and we went out to lunch Mongolian Grill style. Both being cavegirls we shared a plate of many veggies, chicken and plum sauce. (no noodles or rice)

Dinner:

Feeling like I am on “stay-cation” hubby brought in Indian cuisine for dinner. We like to eat at/from Kanishka. We favor Coconut Chicken, Tikka Chili Chicken and Jalfrazi. Check out their menu.  We all love Indian cuisine in this cave! The staff there do seem to have a hard time comprehending that we don’t need/eat rice or breads. My kids do eat rice so they always have enough for the week when we order take out!

Another great day of eating!

Good evening!

Feeling much better today except for feeling super stressed about my mum, who’s very unwell in the UK – GET WELL SOON Mam xxx Please send healing thoughts and prayers her way – THANK YOU! We need Cavegirl Sue back to her usual self and packing for her visit here.

Having posted an informative article on Facebook today I have decided to try and reduce my almond intake. It will be interesting to see if it makes a difference with my weight loss.

Here are my meals for today:

Breakfast:

Apple & Almond Coconut Flour Pancakes with Blueberries

• ½  C Coconut flour
• 6 Eggs
• 1 14oz can coconut milk
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 2 tsp.  almond extract
• 1 x (½ C) pot of unsweetened apple sauce

Gosh these were delicious! 

I had to capture this image…

I even threw in some cocoa powder into the mix to make a few chocolate pancake for my little cave kid.

Lunch:

Kinda forgot about lunch until I realized I was hungry so I just randomly threw some food in a bowl: rotisserie chicken breast, paleo homemade guacamole and sweet potato chips/crisps.

Dinner:

Dinner was a little like lunch except I was craving some sweet potato mash. Found 2 white sweet pots and 1 orange and made a delicious mash, added a Tbs of coconut milk and a little sprinkle of cinnamon. Ate the leg off the chicken with a dollop of Pico de Gallo and store bought guacamole = very comforting and satisfying! OH and a nice drop of vino

See you tomorrow
