Day 44 ~ Who Needs It!

Day 44 ~ Who Needs It!

Feb 13, 2014

My first: I declared a no caffeine, no sugar and no starch day today.

I decided to have a day with no boost enhancers. I had no coffee in the morning…I am out of it anyway. I had 4 eggs for breakfast and my usual “greens” drink from “It Works”.

For lunch I had a can of cold peas and a few spoons full of creamy peanut butter. I am really not an ingredients label reader and not so much curious about what is in stuff…until today. After I “indulged”, I read the label from the can of peas and the jar of peanut butter…SUGAR! Seriously! How much? I failed my challenge of no sugar by eating a can of cold peas and some off-brand peanut butter. Really?

Okay, now I’m getting down and dirty. I went to the store and got some “pure” ground beef and some healthy raw asparagus. And, of course, coffee for tomorrow! I browned the beef and steamed the asparagus. I mixed them together and then threw some no-sugar-added feta cheese on top for kicks. Not bad. I chased it all down with a bottle of water and now I’m good to go for the evening. Ready to paint my living room!

Earlier today my client noticed that I was a little draggy without my coffee. She is an avid coffee drinker so she has an eye for such things.  I didn't have any withdrawal symptoms though…so maybe I should try this for a WHOLE week…or not.
