Days 27, 28, & 29 - Chocolate, I've missed you!

For the past three days, I've had the cravings... not the sugar cravings, not the carb cravings, but the chocolate cravings. I know. Sugar/Chocolate/Carbs... what's the difference?

Tomorrow is Day 30. The final day.

Tomorrow, I'll give my summation. Tonight, I'll rest. I've been lazy all week, but I know it's because I've not taken the time to eat properly.

This weekend was a chance for me to try some Thai food... Um... YUM!!! I added more & more chili sauce and lime juice to it... although it was "heat", it was amazing flavor!!! Loved the flavor, and allowed the heat to make my lips sweat. :)

This morning, nuts, eggs, homemade wheat Irish Soda Bread, and cheese. (much too heavy to start off the day!) Lunch was grilled eggplant w/ roasted red peppers, feta, and pesto. On the side, a salad of fresh spinach, fennel, endive, carrot, apples, almonds, and topped with a tablespoon of organic balsamic vinagraitte. Dinner was apples & Havarti on said bread, and a tablespoon of natural/organic peanut butter drizzled w/ honey.

Hot tea.

Here's the thing... I cheated. It's day 29, and I had a handful of jellybeans, topped by a Hershey's coconut kiss. It's not a failure... it's Easter Sunday, and I GOTS t' have me some Easter candy, even if it IS just a little taste. :) You see, this hasn't been a time of punishment or guilt... it's been a time of experimentation, and my normal eating habits were simply challenged.

More on my final day. Tonight, I read, and I rest. And I smile on this past month. :)
