My goal of eating less highly-processed sugar has been going pretty well. I let myself indulge (in moderation) on the weekends and during the week I try to distract myself when I crave something sweet or I turn to alternatives, like dried coconut or hot tea. So far, so good. Abstaining from alcohol during the week has been easier. Although, confession time: Monday night I had a glass of red wine and last night I sort of went crazy and ate 3 pumpkin Joe-Joe's that I had been storing in the freezer. So, this week isn't off to a great start, but I'm attempting to climb back on the horse.
Breakfast
 |
| This Overnight Oats in a Jar contained rolled oats, Jif Natural Crunchy peanut butter, 2% milk, banana, pecans, vanilla granola, and a dab of pumpkin butter. Oh, and cinnamon and tiny pinch of salt. |
 |
| Seasonal Larabar! |
 |
| MORE seasonal Larabar! These keep me surprisingly full for a long time. |
Lunch
 |
| This is my favorite salad from Trader Joe's: Kale and Edamame Bistro Salad (in this picture, all you can really see is the abundance of KALE, but there's other delicious stuff in there). |
 |
| Banana with Jif Natural Crunchy peanut butter. |
Dinner
 |
| Our array of Chinese delicacies at Mala Sichuan. Baby bok choy, Dan Dan noodles, etc. Eeeek. |
 |
| Swiss Cheese White Wine soup from Rudi Lechner's. Delicious bread in the background. |
 |
| Beer Schnitzel (pork) in mustard sauce, potatoes, sauerkraut, and red wine from RL. |
 |
| Thanksgiving feast with my church group: salad, roasted potatoes, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, turkey, and red wine. |
Dessert
 |
| Shaved ice with chocolate ice cream, sweetened condensed milk, strawberries, and banana from Juice Box. |
 |
| Good Night dessert coffee from Rudi Lechner's. |
