Day 16 and a Diet Bet

Okay, let's just jump right in.
I am on Day 16 of Whole 30...WHAT?
This is flying by and the best part? It's freaking easy.
Yeah sure, you spend a little more time in the kitchen and a little more money on food, but AREN'T YOU WORTH IT?
Probably. Unless you're an asshole.

Here are some of my most recent eats, which I usually post on IG & Facebook, so if you've seen it, kindly keep scrolling and don't complain.

Pesto (basil, pine nuts, olive oil, avocado, lemon juice, garlic, S&P) with Zoodles (zucchini  noodles), and some grilled chicken.
Holy. Delish.

My mom and I made this^^
A play on Pad Thai with Sunshine Sauce, veggies, toasted almonds, & zoodles.
It was so, so good.

MY FAVE MEAL YET.
Balsamic pot roast, mashed potatoes (made with coconut milk & ghee), and a gravy made from the pot roast juices from the crock pot (thickened with coconut flour). 
Not pictured are my mound of green beans.
Guys. This was BOMB.

Whole 30 is a game changer.
I started this whole bidness because I wanted to feel better.
I discovered in the past that I have a gluten sensitivity - and recently have thought that dairy may be a factor to my gut issues, too.
Well, I think I was right. 
Because since cutting all that crap from diet, I have been a ready/steady and slow/flow type of gal (ifyaknowwhatImean) (thosearepoopreferences).

What else is up?
I got to go on a field trip with Rosalie's preschool and we had a blast!!
Ro & her bestie with a giant turtle.

FEARLESS.

Cute little flying squirrel thing (not what it's called, but close enough).

And I got shat on my a hedgehog.
NBD.

I can't believe pre-school is ending next week!
I can't believe I have a child old enough to be in pre-school!
Holy smokes.
It's also a nice little reminder that I'm nearly done with this term.


Goodbye Anatomy & Physiology.
It's been real.

Last and not least, I have some news.
I have joined Mama Laughlin's Diet Bet!
You have to lose 4% of your body weight in 4 weeks to win your money back.
I'm super excited - there is also a chance to win an Apple Watch...COME TO MOMMA!
I'm not going to change my diet at all - I feel great about Whole 30 and will continue to eat this way for the foreseeable future. 
My one downfall: We are going to California in June (the week before my final Diet Bet weigh in) and let's be honest...I'm gonna have a drink or two. 
So hopefully I can walk in the mornings with my mom and continue to eat whole, and won't have a problem come weigh in time!
I really want that $35 back :)
My official weigh in pic that I had to submit for the diet bet.

Me, this morning, on the treadmill rocking my FitBit.

That pretty sums it all up.
Feeling pretty darn good!
Happy Worst Day of the Week!
