Real Food Diary – What I Ate Today
I try to keep my diet low in grains because I feel best when I eat a lot of protein. But sometimes a girl just wants a bagel, right?
Today was a fun day, but it was tough to keep the food real. I visited my hometown for the first time in a while and we had a barbeque.
Even though the food wasn’t ideal for a real food diet, it was delicious. Frankly, it’s just not worth it to me to make a big deal over fun food with friends and family. In fact, I wrote an article about how to eat healthy at parties without being a food snob.
The truth is, I ate plenty of real food today, I just had some extra stuff, as well.
To see what I mean, read on to today’s real food diary entry.
Breakfast
Blueberry bagel
Organic cream cheese
Coffee with grass-fed, low-temp pasteurized heavy cream and coconut sugar
Snack
1 banana
Lunch
Family BBQ!
Burger (refined, white flour bun, CAFO meat from the grocery store, bottled BBQ sauce in the meat–you know, pretty typical Standard American fare. And I enjoyed every bite while enjoying time with my family!)
Blueberries straight off of the bush
Potatoes and green beans from my dad’s garden
Dinner
Kombucha and organic cranberry/blueberry juice
Tomato, avocado, and goat cheese salad with olive oil, honey and real salt
