Made it to week 2! I’m feeling REALLY good. For the most part I’m not craving a lot of sugar. G, on the other hand, was exhausted on day 8. While I felt like I was withdrawing on like day 2, he made it through a whole week before it hit him like a truck.
If you’re new here, or missed week 1, you can go see what we ate and how the week went here.

Day 9

Went to Chipotle for lunch and got a kid’s meal of 2 corn crunchy tacos, chicken, lettuce, & corn (you only get three toppings when you order a kid’s meal!)
Dinner:
NOT GOING TO LIE TO Y’ALL. I succumbed to peer pressure and ate Domino’s for dinner. G and I were dying for pizza lol
UPDATE: Today was so hard. I was out with my best friend most of the day at the mall and it is hard to be good when you are surrounded by soft pretzels and ice cream. I was good most of the day, but then came home and Garrett and I were both so HANGRY that we said “screw it” and ordered pizza.
Day 10
Breakfast:
Overnight steel cut oats but without the yogurt and honey. Pretty much everything else stayed the same. But I did cook the berries in the oats for a while so that they would cook down a tad and release some of their natural sugars.

Dinner:
Black bean burgers with lettuce buns
Day 11
Breakfast:
Smashed avocado and egg on toasted Ezekiel bread, topped with Everything but the Bagel seasoning
