So tonight I allowed myself a cheat meal since we were invited to a relatives home for a family bday. I can tell you, not even worth the cheat. I’m glad I could eat and enjoy myself rather than saying “no I can’t eat this or that.” Honestly though, I think I would have been better off, it wasn’t worth the cheat to me because there wasn’t anything remotely healthy about what we ate…and now of course my stomach is angry and I feel tired instead of energized! What I’m taking away from this is that cheat meals go against everything you are working towards and unless it’s healthy in someway, it’s just not worth it…not even once a week. My goal is to change my taste buds, get to where my unhealthy staples are a thing of the past. This was a setback…and though I can work off the extra calories with a workout…I feel like I just turned my body back into a garbage can. Wanting examples…1 lg slice all meat pizza, chips …

Lemons are not only high in vitamin C…they are a cholesterol zapper, detoxifier, diuretic, and thermogenic all in one according to Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D, CNS in The Fat Flush Foods. I never feel better than when I’m not only drinking lots of water, but also adding in a lemon a day to fight bloating, cholesterol, aid in digestion, detoxify, and improve skin texture/tone.

Chop up your favorite veges (broccoli, mushrooms, onions, peppers here) add to 16eggs, and beat in 4oz almon milk for fluff, season to taste…I use herbs to cut down on need for salt for flavor. Line each muffin hole of two muffin tins (24 muffins total) with turkey bacon or Black Forest ham, pour egg/vege mixture inside. Top with cilantro and bake on 350degrees for 20min or until egg is done. Pull out of oven and let cool before using a butter knife to loosen from bottom of pan. Store 1/2 in the fridge for this weeks breakfast and freeze the other half for next week. For each two you have, less than 200 calories, balanced, and filling!
