Clean eating plan has a hiccup.

This is the first day of my decision to eat clean, and mindfully reject all foods that may interfere with my weight loss. That went just great until 3:00 this afternoon. Breakfast was a glorious fruit salad topped with plain yogurt, maple syrup, and hemp seeds. Lunch was a righteously healthy salmon, pepper, and avocado salad, no dressing. I was flying high with success!

Then came the hiccup. We are on a road trip. This route takes us by a dear old uncle and aunty, who love company, and were thrilled to have us stop in for tea. Oh, if only it were just tea… Aunty, 85 years old, had baked a lemon merengue pie! For us! So I graciously munched on buns and cold cuts of roasted turkey, (and the pie!), and decided to sort all of this out later. On my new blog.

I was not wrong to eat the food. But I was very worried. Because I display addictive tendencies. If I revert back to delicious sugar, can I regain my momentum? The test came at supper. My husband took me to Brown's Social House. I had every intention of ordering the healthy thing, whatever that may be, but I was watching myself with a curious dread to see whether I would change my mind at the last minute, and order what HE'S having.(Pizza) Well, I won! Halibut, salad, and I substituted the braised cabbage for the almond rice. I picked at the purple pile with a twisted grimace, but was very pleasantly surprised to find I liked it! In fact, I'm going to learn how to make it myself!

Oh, this looks so good! top with a little goat cheese, and I am right back at Brown's!
