Cravings //
Not too many of these, near the end of the week I really really really wanted to have a glass of wine but I abstained because I want to do as well as possible in this challenge.
Anything Else //
All of the meal planning became a little overwhelming especially the thought of it for the next week to have to start it all over again. Also cooking has taken up a lot of extra time with how my work schedule is I have to cook everything Monday or Tuesday so I don't starve the rest of the week. By the weekend I was a little tired of everything also out of most meals and kind of sick of eggs.
Next Week Thoughts //
I want to do some things simpler, like adding back my morning smoothie (I miss them!) and there are a few recipes which I tried one at the end of the week, I just need to buy some green tipped bananas to make them. I also will probably do some easier salads and just throw everything in it together or make some simple "sandwiches" with lettuce, other veggies, and lunch meat. I'm looking forward to week 2 and loving how I'm feeling being off sugar and processed stuff, but also will enjoy some sweets and treats once I'm done!
