Good Morning!
I had hoped to get a recap from week two of my Whole30 yesterday but our internet has been down since Friday so I’ve been a little behind… Plus, we were gone all day Friday then my mom came to stay the night and we were out running errands most the day yesterday. With some added fun family time I’ll be sharing with you tomorrow for Marvelous Monday!
Since I didn’t’ get my meals from the week up yesterday I’ll be sharing those today along with my meal plan for week 3 of the Whole30. Which by the way is going really good! I can’t wait to recap the whole thing at the end of the month but I will say I’m already feeling so much better. I’m not even half way through and I already want to tell everyone to jump on board and try it so they feel as great as I do!
Not only am I feeling better but I’ve really been enjoying the food too. The Hubby isn’t doing the strict plan with me but is eating whatever I make him for breakfast or dinner and has been loving it as well. Here’s a look at what lasts weeks meals included.

Unpictured pre-workout breakfast was a handful of macadamia nuts and a slice of turkey. Breakfast was a scramble with sweet potatoes, Kabocha and Bilinski Chicken Sausage with some plantains sautéed in coconut oil topped with homemade coconut butter (which is slightly dangerous!). Lunch was this Chicken salad that was delicious along with some carrots, celery and tomatoes. I had an unpictured kombucha and some Gourmet Grass-fed Beef Jerky for a snack. Dinner was kabocha Salmon Cakes (recipe to follow) with a dill aoli along with roasted brussel sprouts and radish.

If you remember my meal plan from last week, you know I didn’t really stick to it. Never do but it’s always great to have as a map for what I’d like to do for meals. Stuff comes up or I’ll be in the mood for something different so we’re flexible Image may be NSFW.
