I know, I know a day behind, but mornings seem to be the most convenient time for me to get things done this week. Day 3 was interesting... I opted to have mu BPC first and then had breakfast about an hour later. I can't normally get away with this, but I had the day off yesterday. I ended up making a "pudding" I don't really know what else to call it but here'e whats in it:
1 scoop protein powder
1/4 cup walnuts
1 tbsp shredded coconut
1 tbsp ground flax seeds
1 tbsp cacao nibs
1/4 cup coconut milk
1/3 cup apple sauce
I just mix everything together and eat!

One thing I've noticed is that I'm pretty hungry in afternoons, and I experience a significant dip in energy around 3pm. I had lunch around 12:30, which was just eggs, kale, turkey bacon, and avocado. I had another scoop of protein powder around 3:30, hoping to boost my energy for Crossfit. Last night during the WOD, I really noticed my energy drop. The only explanation that really makes sense to me, it that my body is REALLY missing carbs. I haven't bothered to track my macros (protein, fat, and carbs) but I would guess that I'm well under 100g of carbs/day, and possibly more in the 60-80g range. The ONLY fruit I've had this week has been in the form of applesauce... where normally I'd have a daily banana and serving of blueberries. I also have sweet potatoes on a fairly regular basis, but not this week.
Dinner last night was a bison burger topped with tomatoes, onions, lettuce, jalepenos, and avocado, along with a side of frilled asparagus.
