Whole30 Day 3-5

I still haven't broken.  I'm still on-board, haven't cheated and I still feel mostly full.  I'll tell you what... I'm sick!  I have a nasty cold and fortunately, I'm off today, so I'm blogging from my bed.  All my past remedies haven't worked  and I have succumbed.  And I'll tell you what else...I am pissed!  All I wanted for dinner last night was chicken noodle soup, but nope, fuck that, wheat, added sugar... make your own, right?  Yeah well I wasn't planning on feeling like I had been hit by a truck and all I wanted to do was eat and go to bed; not prep for an hour, wait for an hour and maybe have a bowl of soup by 10 pm. I mean, I had considered the noodle factor wouldn't exactly work.  So how about vegetable soup?  Nope, frickin alphabet pasta, wheat and added sugar.  Yeah, after this, I will attempt to make some chicken soup, GF, non-dairy, no sugar added.  Sigh, this diet of sadness and deprivation continues....
I am getting to be a very good master of smoothies.  Coconut milk is added to almost all of them, and my concoctions taste quite good.  Added nuts or a banana adds protein and texture and creaminess.  I haven't really done the whole green smoothie thing yet...green tastes like plants.  And Larabar is my good friend on the run.  Currently addicted to the apple cinnamon.
Coconut milk is my dairy (but I really miss yogurt!!), avocado is my mayo, salsa is my flavouring for now, bananas are my thickener... eggs are my chicken soup (from last night anyway).
I want to say I feel better, have more energy, etc, etc.  But with this stupid cold kicking my ass, all I have are body aches and sleepiness.  So, I am going to have a nap.  Then run to the grocery store for fixin's for chicken soup, sans noodles. Sad face.
