Advocare 24 Day Challenge Days 8-10

The last few days of the 10 Day Cleanse went pretty smoothly. It was harder to keep from cheating knowing that I was so close to the end.

Day 8

Breakfast: Back to the fiber drinks! Yum! Seriously, though, despite their gross taste, I love the way they make me feel. I didn’t eat breakfast today because I was driving home. I kept thinking I would stop and fix a meal replacement shake, but it didn’t happen.

Lunch: Zucchini noodles with cauliflower alfredo sauce. I added in some salad shrimp and peas. It was super yummy. I also had some hummus and celery.

Snack: Raspberries

Dinner: Dinner was a flop. I was going to make a meal replacement shake with peaches and spinach. It turns out the meal replacement shake does not do well in the blender. It got all frothy and yucky tasting. So then I tried to make eggs, but I added relish and those weren’t very good either.

Day 9

Breakfast: Again, after the fiber drink, I was running late and didn’t have time for breakfast.

Lunch: I was out and about at lunch and had not had any food, so I broke down and bought a sandwich at Target – turkey and brie. I also bought some cheddar bacon mac & cheese chips. Total will-power breakdown. The only redeeming thing was that I only ate half of the sandwich and one serving of chips.

Dinner: My parents made dinner for the boyfriend’s birthday, and it was all of my favorite things: steak, rice casserole, and squash casserole. I tried to keep my portions small, but I did have a buttered dinner roll with it.

Day 10

Breakfast: Meal Replacement Shake. I mixed the vanilla and chocolate together. Yum!

Lunch: I went for a run at lunch, so I wasn’t hungry for awhile after. I ended up eating hard boiled eggs with mustard and hot sauce at around 3:00.

Dinner: Boyfriend birthday dinner part 2. We went to a crawfish restaurant. I had picked out my order online – an order of crawfish and side of steamed broccoli. Except the restaurant didn’t have crawfish, so I had to make a snap (hungry) decision. I got the buffalo shrimp salad. It was kind of terrible. And off-plan. I will say it wasn’t fried, and I didn’t use the dressing, but there was bleu cheese.

I kind of fizzled on my last few days on the plan. Results post tomorrow!
