Whole30 Reset: Day 19 - 21

The weekend went by too fast!! On Saturday, I spent the day with my friend Gloria.  We went to go see a family member perform in the Temecula area.  She was really super talented.  I ended up eating random stuff from Trader Joe's and honestly cannot remember what it all was.  I had a smoothie from Nektar that was very good.  It just had fruit and veggies and ice.  Nothing with 'juice' or sugar.  We went shopping and definitely got a lot of steps in our day.  So while I did not keep track of what I ate, I DID stick to my Whole30 rules.  :)

On Sunday, I made my usual for breakfast.  Then my pal Mark (universe twin) came down to visit me.  We were sad as we attempted to play MarioKart 8 and learned that my Wii U Disc reader is not working properly :(  So we watched Pixar shorts instead.  We also watched Wall-E!! I forgot how much I love that movie!  For lunch we went to Point Loma Seafood.  Mark ordered a super yummy looking Scallop sandwich.  I ordered the grilled catch of the day which was swordfish (I asked what they grill it with and they said extra virgin olive oil so that worked!) and it came with steamed veggies and rice but I asked for no rice so they gave me extra veggies.  It was super filling, I couldn't even finish it!  For dinner I made Steak Frites.  I used ghee to grill the steaks and for the fries I seasoned them with salt, pepper, parsley and garlic.  I cooked them with onions as well.  It came out really good.  :)

TODAY!  So this morning Damion made me eggs, bacon and potatoes.  For lunch I ate leftovers from 3 days ago.  Funny enough I made it for dinner too!  See my Day 18 entry for the recipe!


So I will try to get better at not missing entries.  I just had too much fun this weekend.  I always love when I get to see my friends here so I threw my blog out the window.  Sometimes it is more important to fully experience the things around you and I find logging them can be distracting for me.  So I have stopped trying to capture everything and focus on things that are important to me.  That is not to say that I think this is the 'right way to do things' I love when people catalog and share, I just find that I cannot fully experience things when I am distracted by 'checking in' and taking pictures or ... I don't know.  Maybe I am on a rant again. lol... anyways.. I will try to get better at logging for the purpose of keeping track of my progress.  I am learning that the real reward for this journey is that I make accomplishments every day with each good choice.  The scale can no longer tell me whether or not I have succeeded and so it should not.  :)

Ok, I am going to focus on watching Harry Potter with my gal pals now <3
