Oh how I wish I could tell you that today was easy…..However, its Valentine’s Day. Enough said right? I mean the day is full of sweets and champagne and I can’t have any of it. The good news…its day 19!
I did wake up feeling pretty darn good and rested so there’s that!
Breakfast
My bacon consumption at this point might be frowned upon in the Whole30 world and maybe even by my doctor but… here I am surviving Whole30 on my terms! I honestly don’t think I can have eggs without it.
Lunch
So I had full intentions of having Italian Beef for lunch and then later a nice steak dinner but….the Italian beef wasn’t ready. So, Chipotle it was! Just a reminder I get the Carnitas, Fajita Veggies, Guacamole, Pico de gallo, and Romaine Lettuce.
I did feel really good all afternoon and super freaking productive!
Dinner
Since the Italian Beef wasn’t ready at lunch, it was what was for dinner! I had a side of cooked carrots, and Potatoes and onions that I baked.

Notes

Sleep
As far as sleep…. I was emotionally drained (dogs should live forever) so I crashed on the couch and then woke up and moved to the bed. It was still really good sleep even if I started on the couch.
Alright Day 20 I am ready for you!
