Since I woke up this morning STARVING, I decided that I would try to eat larger portions at each meal. We once again started the morning with fabulous gluten-free pancakes and eggs and pineapple orange juice and I had 1 extra pancake and made it all the way to lunch at 11:40!
Last night we found some gluten-free graham crumbs at Hy-Vee, so my dad got up and rolled the pork chops in them and put them in the slow cooker. This is one of my dad and mine's famous meals and we were really worried that we wouldn't be able to eat it while on this diet. Then after finding the crumbs we were worried that it wouldn't measure up. Let me tell you it was GOOD!!! I paired 2 1/2 pork chops with a salad with avocado, cashews, sliced mushrooms, and light vinegarette and I was good until dinner minus my skinny carmel latte while driving home.
For supper, I through some frozen cooked shrimp in a pan on the stove with lemon juice, olive oil, parsley, salt, and 2 garlic cloves and threw some on a bed of lettuce with 1/2 an avocado, grape tomatoes, and the vinegarette. The kids loved the shrimp and had some with peas and blue/blackberries.
I found that I didn't crave the food I normally eat today because I made sure that I was full after every meal but I noticed that Izzy was craving her normal crackers so I promised her that I would take her to Trader Joe's so that she could pick out some gluten-free foods that she would like to snack on throughout the day and she seemed to be okay with that. Otherwise, I think she thinks I am trying to deprive her :)
Tomorrow I need to start with phase II----P90X :S
