I'm moving into Phase 1.5 after 3 weeks before my birthday and one more after. I usually don't advocate spending so long on Phase 1 but I really had made a mess of my eating and just couldn't get past those cravings. I'm feeling better now but it's scary how quickly that "giving in" muscle redevelops when I let it.
I'm going to be a permanent Phase 1.5 with my doctor's blessing. Grains just don't work for me so no more than 1-2 servings of those per week. Carrots and strawberries are back on my list though.
B: Lawn mowing power breakfast - kale, egg with ground chia, salsa, rf cheese, 1 veggie sausage & refried beans
L: giant salad with hummus
S: simple carrot cake smoothie (kefir, carrots & sweetener, flavors)
D: grilled salmon, baby peppers & mushrooms
1 glass of wine
exercise - mow the horrible lawn, bike ride
