Day 18

Woke up last night with cramps in my belly and a feeling like I needed to vomit.  Funnily enough, Elf Man was already up and he was in our toilet, so I had to dash to the kids toilet (after grabbing the bucket from the laundry - just in case)

I didn't vomit thankfully, but the feeling stayed with me for a while, not sure what it was that made that happen - guessing it was some food.

So today I was tired, and grumpy and feeling a little crappy.  Then I realised it was day 18 and that was the same wall I hit last time on the Whole30 - we only lasted till day 18 and then I gave it up because it was too hard.

I hit the same wall today.  Its hot, I'm sick of being in the kitchen cooking everything from scratch, its fucking hot, I hate cooking, I hate whingy kids around my feet while I have to cook stuff so we have stuff to eat - did I mention its fucking hot?

As tempted as I am to just give it all up and go back to normal eating, I'm not going to.  I'll probably still bitch and moan and have a huge mummy meltdown - but I will finish this off.  Just doesn't help when you are tired and get headspins every time you stand up (bloody low blood pressure pissing me off).

Anyway thats enough bitching and moaning - on to today's eats!

Breakfast:
Green smoothie.  Didn't have anything else we could have.  It was a nice one though, I used a cup of cherries instead of the normal blueberries and it was tasty tasty *licks lips*

Morning tea:
Skipped it again.  I know I shouldn't because it makes me so freaking hungry by the time lunch comes around, but I give the kids morning tea at 10 and I'm not hungry then, and then Bubbles goes to bed at 11am so by the time I'm finished with her its like 11.45 - and we usually eat lunch at 12 so I just wait.  Today it felt like my stomach was eating itself I was that hungry.

Lunch:
Spinach quiche and a small salad - shredded lettuce, black grapes and a small piece of avocado.
The quiche was ok, it was a basic quiche recipe from HERE, I think next time I'll make it into a zucchini quiche and add some bacon as well.

Afternoon tea:
Small piece of casharoo and a lemon ball.  I really wanted the banana cream pie that I made today, but that will be for tomorrow's morning tea I think!

Dinner:
Chicken nuggets and BBQ sauce from HERE and some vegies.  They were really tasty and the BBQ sauce was so full of flavour!!  Definitely one to have again.

Dessert:
Sorbet.  Still finishing the batch off.  After the shitty day I've had today though, I could really go something with chocolate in it.

Supper:
A cup of tea and.... a slice of banana cream pie!!!  From HERE.  I so couldn't wait till tomorrow.
