Put the Lime in the Coconut

Today (Day 6) had to be the yummiest day of all (so far).  I have to tell you, I'm absolutely in love with coconut oil.  That stuff is just tasty and it doesn't make things all greasy.  If I fall off the Whole30 wagon, I'm pretty sure I'll stick to cooking with coconut oil.  Makes me feel all tropically.

Foods for the day - I started off with eggs, chopped up onions and tomatoes, a clove of garlic and a handful of baby spinach all scrambled up with the coconut oil.  Delicious.  I didn't even need to dose it up with pepper and salt, it was so tasty.

Lunch/Dinner was stir-fried garlic asparagus and more of the garlic fried pork chops.  Anyone sensing a trend?  I'm loving me some garlic.  No sparkly boys will be watching me sleep, that's for sure.  Ha!

Snacked during our volleyball game on some home made ice tea and walnuts/almonds.

I'm definitely feeling better, not as woozy/dizzy, since I've upped my calorie intake.  Still need to work on getting more calcium in the diet.  I'm not having the weird cravings as much and my appetite is a little more under control.  I made it through the day without craving something sweet as well.  So looks like I'm well on my way.  Now I just need to get some more running in.  Maybe instead of spending the afternoon sewing 27 yards of sequin trim onto 27 yards of tulle?  But it was fun and my tutu is going to be pretty bad a$$.  I should be ready for Thursday's Bling Session with the girls.

My knife injury from Day 2 has not healed, or begun to heal.  I suppose that I (1) should have gone to see a doctor when I first did the slice n dice and (2) if I could stop smacking my finger into things so it bleeds more would also be beneficial.  Nurse Carrie says I have to cut the skin flap off...  Yuck.

I'm not really sure why there are gorilla's playing the guitar and the piano but it somehow seemed appropriate.
