“Fight the Chunky” Challenge – Day 30

07. May 2013 · 4 comments · Categories: Breakfast, Dinner, Lunch, Meal Plans, Weight Loss · Tags: , , , ,

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 :)

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

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!

This never tasted so good!!!

Mongolian Grill, MY FAVORITE!

No noodles or rice, tons of veggies, chicken and a little ladle of plum sauce drizzled on the top. I also have a tub of spicy Mongolian Sauce on the side to dip into.

Lunch:

Dinner:

Bolognese made with ground grass fed beef.

I would normally have this over baked spaghetti squash but I fancied a baked sweet potato instead :)

Well that was the plan and then…

I was wondering why the potatoes were taking so long to cook in the microwave. I like to start them off by nuking them and then finishing them in the oven.

But “darn it” my microwave broke :( and we were too starving to wait for them to oven bake.

So this was dinner…

While I was eating it my brain seemed confused. I think it was expecting chili ;)

Hubby has microwave out and is looking it over and keeps shaking his head so I’m not feeling hopeful :(

See YOU tomorrow!

YAY, I’ve lost another lb. :)  

I’ve had a busy baking day today in preparation for my staffroom duty next week at work. I am introducing Paleo to the workplace – yeah baby!! :) Tomorrow I’m taking in my new recipe Perfect Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies and Angie’s Snickerdoodle Cookies too. I have some business cards, a banner and even our recipe book all printed, looking posh and ready to go! Wish me luck!

Here are my meals today…

Brunch:

Blueberry Paleo Waffles, maple syrup, Pineapple chunks and blueberries & coffee.

Usual Paleo Waffle recipe but I added fresh blueberries to the batter – SO good!

Snacks:

I HAD to taste test my cookies today. So much so that I was feeling a little cookie overloaded ;)

Dinner:

Mexicano!

We got creative in the kitchen tonight and cooked up some Mexican cuisine. Not being able to find a paleo clean Fajita seasoning mix, hubby made his own paleo version. Check back tomorrow for that Fajita Seasoning Mix recipe :)
