Active Rest Day. Played vball tonight at 8.
Went out for team drinks after. Did not have even one of the delicious, glistening bottles of Miller Lite. And we had 3 buckets of them. 3. Buckets. ::Sigh:: Why again is beer bad for you? This paleo thing is a pain in the ass sometimes. Awesome to get to explain it again though. "No, it's not a diet. I'm not trying to lose weight... it's more of a lifestyle - I eat this way all the time... Yes, of course I allow myself cheats, just not right now. Right now I'm supposed to be strict... Just a few weeks longer. Are those tater tots??"

Nutrition. NOT my best day (as I'm sure you gathered from the above). This is gonna be a bitch of a weekend as far as food/drinks go. I hope I keep it under control. As much as possible anyway.
9:00 am - 1 egg, 2 oz. no salt turkey, 6 oz. spinach sauteed in 1 T coconut oil with 15 dried cranberries

12:45 pm - Caffe de Lucca Chopped CDL salad (my favorite): mixed greens, avocado, green onion, crisp prosciutto, roasted red peppers, grilled chicken and drizzled a bit of the house Italian sweet and spicy dressing. Probably ~8 oz. vegis, 6 oz. protein, 1/4 avocado. Also enjoyed a Bam Bam - 2 shots espresso and honey topped with coffee, w/ 1 raw sugar. Mmmm.
6:30 pm [Pre-vball] - 3 1/2 oz. grilled swordfish, 6 oz. coconut water, 2 t. sunbutter
6:30 pm [Pre-vball] - 3 1/2 oz. grilled swordfish, 6 oz. coconut water, 2 t. sunbutter
9:00 pm [Post vball] - 8 oz. coconut water
9:30 pm [Post-vball] - 7-8 oz. arugula, 1/2 avocado, 6 oz. grilled chicken, tiny bit of lemon juice + oil... plus 5 tater tots, 3 bites bacon + grilled cheese sandwich, 1 piece garlicky cheesy bready goodness. And one effen black cherry and water. Shit! I was supposed to be good tonight.
11:45 pm - 2 t. sunbutter with some coconut flakes on top. Delicious.
Haha... I love that dialogue of explaining why you eat the way you do. I literally had the exact same conversation about 5 times over the past couple of days! Hilarious.
ReplyDeleteYeah, the "I eat this way all the time... Yes, of course I allow myself cheats, just not right now" is about when you want to give up explaining it and just let them think whatever they're gonna think.
ReplyDeleteagreed!
