day 26
And I thought today was day 27. How unfortunate. I made more cookies today because I was invited to superbowl parties tomorrow, and one of them is making me whole30 approved food. Of course, I had to reciprocate. They're m&m sugar cookies kind of. Not enough brown sugar, a little too much flour, add a little ghee. They look pretty tasty though. Hopefully they taste good since I could not test them.
I found out that my mom hasn't continued on the whole30. It's a bit disheartening, and makes me want to give in too. Not to mention today is a day where I feel like I'm not anywhere I'm supposed to be. My instinct was to bake cookies (lucky I already had that plan) but I also wanted to eat some to make myself feel a little better. I'm unhappy that I'm not allowed to do that. I suppose that's normal. This is the first time I've really been sad on the whole30, and I want to lean on comfort foods. I've been feeling really good so far, which makes it that much harder to be eating well and still feeling like Ï don't belong in my own life today. Enough so that I thought about making paleo desserts once whole30 is over, but not the 45.
In an effort to end on a good note: I've been to the gym two days in a row and I plan on going tomorrow as well. Today I ran 3 miles on an incline elliptical, making it harder for myself the whole time. It's amazing to me that after a month of not running, I can get up and run 3 miles and barely break a sweat. Tish told me I'm the happiest person she's ever seen working out. It does make me happy.
Four more days until I step on the scale, take new pictures, remeasure my body parts, and hopefully feel better about my current state of being.
