Detox - Day 29

I Think I Made A Mistake

Due to a little delay in our Saturday morning activities, I changed our planned breakfast meal at the last minute.  Mainly, because it was getting late and, as a result, I didn't have time to make what I had planned.  Plus, I didn't want to skip my exercise day.  I was tempted to, but calmer heads prevailed (my husband).
 
However, I didn't change the rest of the meals for the day, and I think I ended up having too many carbs today.  If you follow the meal plan for today, change the snack to something other than a carb.

Breakfast - Fruit and one oz. Maqui Juice; then we exercised.  Afterwards we had a frozen whole grain waffle (Vans brand) with natural peanut butter.

AM Snack - By the time we exercised and finished breakfast it was almost 10:30.  So, we skipped our snack to keep on track for the rest of the day.

Lunch - BLT (found on SS website) and a slice of cheese (1 oz.).  Since this was lunch, and not a snack, we could actually add the bacon.  And it was heaven. 

Instead of bread, use lettuce cups or a firm leaf lettuce.  Spread it with a little mayo, some tomato slices, and the bacon.  Then, wrap and eat.  I made 2 wraps, putting one slice of bacon on each.  Allow one tomato per person to get your veggie quota.  I ended up eating one slice of tomato with my cheese because I couldn't fit it all on the BLT.

PM Snack - Rice Crisps (by Lundberg) and homemade salsa I found in our produce department.  This was a fabulous snack as it tasted just like tortilla chips and salsa ... one of my favorite snacks.  I found the crisps in the gluten-free section of our grocery store.  They're made with brown rice and brown flour.  However, as I mentioned above, do not eat this snack if you've already had your carbs at breakfast.

Dinner - Garlicky Shrimp on Mixed Greens (from SS web site).  While the shrimp was wonderful (saute in EVOO and minced garlic) the dressing was too overpowering.  And, for me, it didn't quite go with the dish.  The dressing had soy sauce, rice vinegar, lime juice, EVOO, salt & pepper.  It was the soy sauce that ruined it for me.

I made enough shrimp for lunch on Monday, and I'll try a different dressing and let you know if it's better.
