Breakfast this morning was bacon (simply pork belly soaked in saltwater overnight), eggs, a few hash-browns and a Caprese salad (tomato, mozzarella, basil olive oil and balsamic vinegar). I am trying to continue to limit white potato as well but had a little this morning. Everything was great. After such a big breakfast I didn't really have much for lunch. Just a banana and then some plain yogurt, sweetened with maple syrup, along with some blueberries.
Had a great weekend! Already posted about Friday and Saturday. Ate lots of great meals and stuck to my real food rules :) It does get easier after you get past the first few days. It also gets easier as you get into a routine and do some planning. The cravings lessen as well. I am still eliminating grains because I think they don't agree with me right now, and I feel much better without them.

An easy meal, especially when Hubby does all the chopping, and a favorite. Great for leftovers as well :) Also made some chocolate today for snacking. I haven't made this in ages and forgot how good it was. I only make half the recipe and added toasted coconut and almonds to it. It doesn't look the greatest as it hardened up too much before I got it poured out and spread. You really need to do this in a warm kitchen and use a warmed bowl for mixing (I don't bother with the food processor). It also helps if the maple syrup is at room temperature. It still tastes great so I'm not too bothered :)
