I normally start every morning off with oatmeal, greek yogurt, and chia seeds. I can still do the chia seeds but no more dairy and grains. We'll see how much energy I have without them..
Breakfast: 2 boiled eggs and 1/2 cup of blueberries and blackberries. Surprisingly, this filled me up and prepared me for my hour workout with Dee!! Could of done without the burpees and jumps up hill though ;)
Post workout meal: 6 oz of grilled plain chicken breast and 1/2 cup of peeled baby carrots.
Snack: Handful of almonds, raspberries, and 1 granny smith apple. Note to self: apples, raspberries, and lemon juice do not make for a good smoothie. Next time add honey.
Lunch: Romaine lettuce, teaspoon olive oil, fresh squeezed lemon juice, and grilled Salmon seasoned with sea salt and black pepper. Im pretty sure the sriracha was staring at me from the kitchen. I resisted but boo.
Snack: 1/2 cup of peeled baby carrots. 4oz of grilled plain chicken breast.
Dinner: 6 oz of grilled beef tip steak topped with fresh pico de gallo (minus the jalapenos). 1/2 of an avocado. Steamed asparagus and baby carrots with olive oil and lemon. I rarely eat red meat but had to start the first day off with a bang!!
Snack: 1 orange and handful of almonds.
Snack: 3 oz of grilled chicken.
Overall, the first day was a success. It was hard not to drench my food in hot sauce but eventually my craving for sriracha will become less and less with each passing day. Im excited for the changes this month has in store for me and embrace this challenge with an open mind and heart. Thank you for taking time to read my blog. And thank you Courtney Peters for encouraging me to create one. This is fun!!

ReplyDeleteI went to go "like" your comment..oops, not like facebook:)
ReplyDeleteStumbled upon your blog after googling for 'sriracha paleo'
ReplyDeleteDelighted to see your posts; kind of amazed that Paleo is spreading so far so fast.
I'm curious; where do you get the chicken that you use in all these recipes? I see you're in Scottsdale [I'm in Phoenix] and I wonder if you're familiar with FnB and their AMAZING "Bodega."
You can buy a whole Jidori chicken there for an insanely good price [given the quality.]
Also I wonder if you've ever 'brineraded' your chicken. Super flavorful+salty marinade for thirty minutes = chicken like you've never had before.
Anyway, keep up the awesome work and thanks for sharing your posts! Inspiring me to come up with some diversity in my [eggs/avo/coconut oil/veggies/meat] meal planning.
