Exercise didn't happen yesterday. I was lazy and grouchy. Of course, exercise would actually have fixed both of those, but why let common sense and reality influence my choices?
Today:
(not primal, but at this point I'll take what I can get)
english muffin, pnb, protein shake
cc/blueberries
chicken, beans, apple
hardboiled eggs (turquoise and pink!)
tilapia, steamed veggies
run at lunch
maybe boot camp tonight

Yesterday I had the frozen yogurt, but it fit in with my calories, so I'm calling it good. I will not panic about the cortisone and pain med related scale panic. I can anticipate gaining 5-8 lbs and having it stick around for at least 2 weeks. This has happened EVERY TIME I have gotten shots, and if it happens this time, I will not permit it to make me upset - I'll just remain steadfast and on plan, knowing it'll take some time for it to go back down.
,
Today's plan:
B - Bagel thin, PB, sliced strawberries
S - RF Salami, RF Cheddar, strawberries
L - Leftovers: Chicken skewer, roasted mashed acorn squash, roasted asparagus
S - Protein Shake w/ strawberries
S - Greek yogurt w/ strawberries (can you guess what I bought a flat of at the Farmer's Market this week?)
D - Grilled London Broil, broccoli and ricotta soup, side salad
S - NSA Ice Cream
E - 80-90 min cardio

Stand fast, Amanda. At least you know in advance what the cortisone does to you.

Scale creeping upward. Resisting urge to- panic (and/or to say "You know what, I'm going to gain ANYWAY, might as well earn it).
Plan for today:
B - Light sourdough, PB, sliced strawberries
S - RF Salami, RF cheese, strawberries
L - Leftovers: Grilled london broil, broccoli ricotta soup, roasted asparagus
S - Greek yogurt, strawberries
S - Protein Shake
D - Extra lean (4% fat) beef hamburger with half an ounce of smoked gouda and a few caramelized spring onions, plus mustard and ketchup, and a big side salad
S - NSA Ice Cream
E - Since I can't add in yoga or weights yet, I was thinking I'd push myself today with a long run. It might be too bouncy, though, in which case I'll do a longer incline workout.

Scale is still med-wonky, but I'm at peace with it. It'll settle down eventually.
Saturday:
B - Bagel Thin, 2 tbsp whipped light cream cheese, turkey slices
L - Leftovers: Pork Loin, Roasted Potato, Sauteed Cabbage
S - Kashi bar
D - FiberGourmet spaghetti, super-lean beef meatballs, tomato sauce, side salad w/ light caesar dressing
S - NSA Ice Cream
E - 70 min incline trainer, 30 min yoga, a WHOLE LOT of housecleaning
Sunday:
B - Whole wheat buttermilk pancakes with a sprinkle of blueberries, 1 serving mini chicken apple sausages
L - Giant salad - Lots of veggies (greens, carrots, cucumber, bell pepper, broccoli) plus lots of protein (1/2 cup grilled chicken, 1/4 cup steamed tofu, 1/4 cup garbanzo beans), and some croutons. 30 calories worth of honey mustard dressing.
D - Chili made with super lean ground beef, kidney beans, organic canned tomatoes, and lots of veggies (squash, peppers, garlic). 1.5 ounces of warmed french bread on the side.
S - NSA Ice Cream, sliced strawberries, whipped cream
E - Just 20 min yoga to keep myself limber. It was technically a rest day anyway.
Plan for today:
B - Bagel Thin with egg whites and turkey breast
S - RF Salami, RF colby jack stick, strawberries (I swear, this is such a satisfying snack to me. I love the protein kick it gives me).
L - Leftover spaghetti and meatballs from Saturday, side salad
S - Protein shake
S - Greek yogurt w/ sliced strawberries
D - Frittata made with 1 egg plus 2 egg whites per serving, with bacon, spring onion, asparagus, maybe a bit of broccoli. Side salad.

Chronic pain is for the birds. I'm sorry you have to deal with all of that, Amanda.
Sat, Sun, and Mon were POP food wise. I lifted weights yesterday. Tonight will be running sprints----or ELSE!!!
This primal thing is going pretty good. I've been hitting about 60-70 g carbs and my goal is 50-100 so I have some wiggle room and I'm going to add in sweet potatoes and beans (which I haven't yet,,,,no beans made it in the turkey last night).
Today:
strawberries, protein shake, walnuts
greek yogurt
turkey, spinach, cheese
hardboiled eggs
veggies of some kind, protein of some kind, sweet potato
HIIT running
Oh, and I'm down 2 lbs!
