Day 84 - Great Healthy Day!

Woke up feeling quite good today. My long term hip pain is also gone. Yipeeee! :)

Finally! I'm starving today, but I didn't have dinner yesterday and slept so early, so that isn't surprising! Looking forward to breakfast!

Breakfast is 3 fried eggs with brown pita, a smidge of labna, hotdogs, and brown toast with butter and honey... cup of tea with a smidge of milk. All supplements taken (and I've included DXN spirulina, too):)

Lunch is non... didn't have time :) So I ate super late gaboot made with brown flour and ground beef.. it was good, but not what I wanted.

Dinner was tea with a smidge of milk and multigrain cereal with nuts and raisins. :)

OK.. today is a good day... :) Feeling great! Day off! YIPEEE

Breakfast is kefir, scrambled eggs, and brown baguette.

Lunch is pasta and lemon rosemary chicken at Johnny Carino's.... not great with the pasta.. but what to do. I also had 2 pieces of shrimp on a tiny piece of toast, but no bread, or anything :) Iced tea of course!

Dinner is KFC breast with cheesecake (Is this an addiction?)...

The deal is that I feel absolutely great. I feel light, flat tummy is there! The weight is obviously down, although, as I said before, I'm not going to weigh myself.

This hair analysis is no joke... I'm sooooo happy that I did it, and that I am following the advice on the report. It's not too much longer before I have to retest my hair. I'm looking forward to seeing what is going to be on the second test. :)

If you are in Kuwait, you can contact me by leaving your email in the comments section and I can arrange for your hair test to be sent from Kuwait to the USA. :)

Day 77 - Feeling Light

Although I really didn't feel like getting up today, I did. I feel pretty light today. Things are good in many ways, and we have to be thankful for everything. :)

It seems my weight is down, by eye....I'm not weighing myself, because I don't want to have that hanging over my head. I'm happy about it, too, because I'm basically, at this point, able to eat whatever I want as long as it is healthful and balanced :) Yay!

Breakfast is omelet with veggies, 2 pcs of brown toast with butter and honey, 1/2 brown pita, with labna and foul. Tea with a smidge of milk.

All supplements :)

All supplements taken :)

Day 74 - Feeling Active and Energetic!

Even though I don't feel like I slept enough....but I'm energetic, at least!

It's going to be a cake day today, because the Egyptians at work have all brought cakes, etc. OMG!!!

Breakfast is 3 fried egg yolks, 2 pieces of brown toast with butter and a smidge of honey. a smidge of labna, humous, and foul.. with hotdog concoction... 3/4 brown pita. Tea with a smidge of milk.

Yeah, we had cake.. I had small pieces of mango and strawberry, just to taste... tried the chocolate, but it wasn't worth it. Nothing compares to the taste of Xocai. I just can't feel satisfied with anything else.

Lunch is brown rice with chicken and salad (mitchbous chicken).... YUMMY!

And that's it! (Except for a piece of Xocai)


Day 73 - Up and At em!

OK.. today I'm up early because we have to go to the garage and do the car thing.

Breakfast is at Ruby Tuesday who's game is definitely off today. Food good, service, not so. First thing is we have to argue about getting butter for our biscuits, even when the picture on the menu clearly has butter right there next to the biscuits. Gimme a break!

Breakfast is a crab and avocado omelet. Won't do that again..... tea with milk. felt totally sick after eating it!
I'll stick with the steak and eggs which is fantastic.

Lunch is chicken wings and a smidge of chicken BBQ salad. YUMMY with iced tea.

Dinner is KFC chicken breast X 2 (original) with a pc. of cheese cake without the strawberry. I was craving cheesecake and I balanced it with protein :)


Day 72 - Still Not Feeling Great

I am definitely not feeling great today.. very bloated and yuck...

Breakfast is 3 scrambled eggs with 2 small pcs of brown baguette.

Tea with milk later.

Lunch is Organica fish and chips, which is really yummy, other than the fact that the fish is made with white flour (even if it is organic?)... and water, and their fried potato choices (where's the skin?).... not healthy, felt sooo sick afterward that I slept (which I NEVER do!)....

Dinner is? I honestly can't remember..(because I didn't go online and do this on Friday) I did take my supplements though. :)

Day 71 - Not Feeling So Great...

After that dinner last night, I'm not feeling so well.. :(

But, now that I'm up and about again, I'm getting over it. I'm going to be having breakfast soon, so that should make me feel better :)

Breakfast is 3 fried eggs (yolk only), humous, labna, foul, two pieces of brown toast with butter and honey (yeah, I know.. not, but this is the first time and I want to see what will happen)..., hotdogs with peppers and onions, tea with milk :)

Dinner is worse :)

It's a miracle but I came to work today. I was so sick yesterday and woke up the same, but I forced myself to come. :) :)

Day 69 - Hey there!

Woke up not having enough sleep today. :(

I'll live though.. I have a lot of things to do today.

I had two tangerines before breakfast.
Breakfast was 2 boiled eggs, hotdogs with peppers and onions (too oily), fried cauliflower and eggplant (way too oily), humous, labna, brown pita, tea with a smidge of milk.

Lunch was PF Chang's at Avenues.. lunch meeting! I ate and it was good.. hot and sour soup, fried brown rice (far too greasy, and while there were fresh veggies in it, give me regular old cheapo Chinese restaurant fried rice any day), Moo Goo Gai Pan.. good, but, again, nothing to write home about.. they're off their game, sorry to say.

Dinner is Nando's, which tastes good, (particularly that amazing bread of theirs), but the Chicken burger is hard and difficult to eat. Everything else was good, and even their French fries were good. Unfortunately I became quite sick after eating it.. so .. next time I'll only eat bread. I think it was their milk peri peri sauce that did it.. who knows?

Today I woke up super early worrying about people in Australia arriving safely.

Strawberries left from yesterday are the first fare on the menu :)

OH MY GOD!!!! My new delight is sipping chocolate from XOCAI!!! SUPER YUMMY!!!!!!

I had a Chinesey seafood soup later and hot and sour soup later than that.. It's a soup day it seems.. :)

In the later afternoon we went to Ruby! (of course) and I had steak and lobster.. I'm not going to talk about the lobster, but it was sent back twice, (which I never have to do, usually)....

Iced tea and we splurged for a cake with ice cream YUMMY (it was free.. along with 2 free breakfasts for our trouble.. YUMMY)
