Reboot v.3 - Week 1 over and done with.

Yesssssss, I have survived the first week and the first weekend especially of my third Reboot.  Good job, Me, and Good job, hubby!  Look, I won't tell you that I have not looked with longing eyes at my toddler's Milk Bottle gummy-sweets, and that the braai on Saturday was easy without a glass of wine or two... but it's over and done with and I am surviving.  It's not that difficult after all, it's just a mindset, and you just have to keep it interesting and have to think it over and prepare in advance.

For Saturday's braai with friends I prepared beautiful snacks with sliced biltong, nuts, sweet potato chips and avo dip to have instead of the usual chips. Drinks was a bit tougher, because it sucks drinking only water so I squeezed out some orange juice, and we had bubbly water.  I made a lovely green salad with our meats, and wonderful, blissful Bliss Balls for dessert.  My friend told me "yuck" when I told her it was sugar-free, dairy-free, grain-free, vegan etc, but she actually loved it when she tasted it.

I'm also trying new recipes.  This recipe is absolutely divine - Paleo Fish Cakes with Tomato Sauce.  So succulent and the tomato sauce is to die for - best Paleo tomato sauce recipe I found thus far!    Today I have Paleo Pulled Pork in the Slowcooker and it's smelling absolutely delicious - can't wait for dinner!

So yes, week one was quite all right!  Over the toughest part already and I'm on the right path...

Well except for my training.  I did not sit still last week - no, I worked out with my kettlebell, but I have not ventured out to continue with my running programme after I was bitten by the dog yet.  I really have to find the courage  now because my friend is joining me for a run on Friday and right now I think I might have lost all the progress I've made thus far.  Eeeeeeek, hopefully I will not chicken out again when I go this afternoon.

May week two be even better!
