Keepin' on....

So this last month has been spent experimenting a bit and continuing on without candies and soda. 

It's been good in some aspects, and not in others. 


I've added back in coffee and creamer.  The victory here is that I haven't gone back to my favored chemical creamer, but a store bought one that is simply milk, cream, vanilla and sugar. 
I tried coconut milk with flavors and different sweeteners, coconut oil and ghee, and other combos I found online.  NOTHING was drinkable for more than a couple of sips. 
So it's a been a bit of  treat a few times a week. 
Tea is still my go to. 


Veggies are still not the favored thing. 
Salads are not doing much better. 


If we had the money, I would eat at Chipotle at least once a day.  It is the most satisfying salad and meal I eat right now.  I do add on a small scoop of pinto beans (not paleo), but the rest is great. 

I've been trying to duplicate it at home, but haven't been able to put it all together. 


Most days I'm not eating cheese or other dairy and I'm avoiding grains as well. 
I have had a full platter of rice, beans and meat a couple of times from my favorite Mexican place, but knowing it can't be a weekly thing. 

I've also had pizza, twice.  It was heavenly and then I felt crappy, so that sucks. 
I also noticed at music this week that my hands were achy this week after eating grains.  So that's something I'm not thrilled about. 

So after another month, I'm only down and addition 3 pounds,  but it's a loss. 

Bring on March!
