Practice Food

So this morning, I thought I'd do a trial run of a Whole30 breakfast. This was mostly to make sure I was waking up early enough to prepare it. I don't have a ton of time in the mornings, so I need something that can be prepared quickly.

This morning I went with scrambled eggs and spinach. I love spinach; I hate eggs. But I thought the combination would kill some of the egg taste, so I gave it a try. It did kill some of the egg taste, but there was still the texture of the eggs. I really hate how eggs feel in my mouth. I was able to eat maybe one eggs worth, but I fed the rest to the dogs. I'm going to have to look for something else that I can have in the mornings. 

I had thought I wouldn't be able to go to the gym yesterday, but I was able to wrap up work in time to go. I tried to get up to 3.4 mph, but I couldn't get higher than 3.2 without my shins really hurting. Then I'd back up to 2.8 until the pain went away. The good news is that I spent most of the time at 3.0 without it killing me, so my regular walking pace may have increased from 2.8 to 3.0. The bad news is that I barely finished one mile.

I don't know what was going on with my shins. Maybe I need to stretch more before I walk? I don't know.

Today is Tuesday, so I weighed myself this morning as part of the Holiday Scale Accountability Club. I'm not going to post my twice weekly weights (I will still post it on the 1st of the month), but I will say if it's good news (289.2 or below) or bad news (above 289.2). Today was good news.

Those of you who do Whole30/paleo type stuff, what do you eat in the morning? I'd love some recommendations. I don't have to have something "breakfasty," but I do need something fast and easy.

  1. How about nuts and cheese for breakfast, and maybe a piece of fruit? :)

    1. Personally, I would love that for breakfast, but on the Whole30 I can't have cheese. I suppose I could do nuts and some veggies, but the first meal of the day is supposed to be pretty strong in protein.

  2. Hm...try apple chicken or something like that, found at any grocery store. Already cooked, tastes great, adds the meat you are looking for! Also if you have instagram, look up the hashtags for what you are looking for and you will find soo many! Good luck!!
