Update!

Hey,

Been so ill with my poorly teeth. never had toothache before in my life so now at least i can relate when people tell me they have it, haha. Never ever felt pain like it, even labour isn’t as bad as toothache. My whole face swelled up and i had to go to hospital. Not eaten properly in a week, and even what I ate wasn’t paleo. I couldn’t even think straight with the pain.

Anyways, had an op on my mouth today so hopefully it should get a lot better and I’ll be able to eat properly again.

Hope you’re all ok though!

Whole30 – toothache

I actually feel like my whole face is just aching. None stop, i took 2 ibuprofen and 2 paracetamol…… Still hurting! Can’t eat properly. Had my teeth cleaned at a regular appointment and I think she hit a filling and made it move or something because ouchie. I feel like crying. I just made a lush salad and can’t even eat it 😦

Whole30 – cute cucumbers!

Hey *waves*

Had my test results back all clear. Thank whatever cos i was really starting to get worries. If anything it gives you a new sense of fight. No longer am I going to put up with crap. =)

I love costco! Just made a salad with some salad from there, some tuna, a few olives and BABY CUCUMBER! They’re so cute. I feel happy eating them haha.

Anyways, as i was saying yesterday before i deleted my post by accident (fml) was that i want to make some soup but i’ve never done it without stock cubes before! I suck. So my dad, because he’s an amazing cook is making me some properly. I come from a family of amazing chefs. All three of my brothers have been or are chefs and thin. Typical. My dad makes all sorts of amazing dishes from scratch and has been quite interested in the paleo recipes I’ve been doing. Which is awesome.

So yeah, soup tomorrow yay.

Whole30 – day 6

Not blogging too much cos i feel miserable! got to have blood tests because of a lump in my throat and tbh i’m pretty scared! I know its going to be nothing but i’m a massive worrier anyways. No idea how long the results from blood tests take but I know the whole time i’m going to be worrying.

Still whole30ing. Not letting it take that away from me!

Whole30 – Day 4

Hey, *waves*.

I find it funny that my eating works in a pattern, one day i have around 1200 calories, the next day i have about 600, then the next day 1200 without even trying. I just eat when i feel hungry til i feel satisfied.

Today I went to a buffet/bbq type of thing but they had plenty of nice stuff to eat. Prawns, salad of all kinds. Gammon etc. So it was fairly easy to work with it.

b – none, i’m just not a morning eater at all. Had a nice bottle of water with a lemon squeezed in though.

l – Lettuce, cucumber, onions, beetroot, gammon, sausage (not exactly paleo i guess but it was a good quality one), prawns (they were put on a stick and bbq’d. So good.) I had some cabbage too. Bit random add there.

d – chicken kebab with salad.

snacks – handful of pecan nuts.

So this puts me in the high calorie day today whereas yesterday I had lower calories. I don’t know exactly how it works but it works. I feel great and i’m not finding myself too hungry but I can tell when I need to eat. Keeping on drinking water with fresh lemon, i’m fairly sure thats ok cos its not loads of lemon, maybe like one whole lemon a day.

Today I think I had my first sort of “omg i could just eat…..” and then i just thought, but if you do, then you start again, and is that worth it? No. If you do eat that, you wake up tomorrow feeling crap, whereas today you woke up feeling amazing. Is it worth it? No.

Heres to day 5!

Whole30 day 4 – Feel so awake!

Just woken up, after going to sleep about 1, which isn’t an ideal time but never mind. I usually feel like crap this time in the morning but today i feel really okay. I feel like i could go swimming or something, like I have the expendable energy today which I don’t normally have. Love paleo!!!

PS why do i keep getting invalid requests when i try to post?! So annoying.

Whole30 – day 3!

Hello *waves*.

Day 3. Can’t even believe it. i dont miss anything at all so far.

b – missed

l – left over curry.

d – cod thai green curry. With courgettes, grated carrot, mushrooms and onions.

 

The thai fish curry i made tonight. i used the other half of the coconut milk, i used grated carrot towards the end and fish which is how it was different from the night before but i can’t get over how sweet it tasted. I don’t know if that was the carrot or what. It tasted good but very different! I only had 1 fillet of fish which i had to take off its skin, yuck! never done that before but i managed sort of.

Not much to say today really. I’m thinking about having a look over to my local asian supermarket for some of the things I want to make my own thai paste because i really don’t feel ok about using the paste from the shop. I bought lemon grass and chillis yesterday. So i just need the other stuff now. I also want to make some mustard which i got from that site i linked yesterday.

Still really enjoying myself. I feel great. I’ve lost 8lbs in 3 days so far which I know is obviously water and some other stuff but still. It feels pretty good. Im liking being able to eat nuts and things like that. I’ve had it forced into me nuts are baaaaad, seeds are baaaaad. so i’ve stayed away from them. Its a refreshing change.

Whole30 – End of day 2!

Had a brill day today. I was so proud of myself. I said earlier than when my ex is around I find food hard. I think its the emotional side to it. I also input my food into myfitnesspal and it came out at 1200 calories. I feel good, i don’t feel deprived of anything.

b – 2 boiled eggs, 50ish g of beef.

l – Gammon steak, salad.

d – thai chicken curry, cauliflower rice, 40g of cashew nuts.

snacks – watermelon.

I felt a bit like “ooh i’d like to eat that” when my son was eating some chocolate but then i thought naaaah, not worth it.

Anyways, off to bed!
