I go for the fourth of july over to my dear inlaws. I am on a low carb paleo plan, but when presented with a margarita or three, I succumb. Then for dessert my wife's deadly banana pudding (made with the usual ingredients but then add Eagle Branch and cream cheese and Cool Whip).
Well, yesteday I resolve to get back on the plan and have a nice breakfast of eggs and country sausage with lots of bacon grease. All is fine and well until lunchtime at work, when I discover I left mine on the countertop at home. My solution: I'm seriously craving carbs, so I have eight packets of instant apple cider mix. No water, just the mix eaten with a spoon. When I get home, my dear wife -- who usually has dinner ready for us all -- is at the pool with the kiddos. And I'm having an apparent sugar crash (never had one before, but I couldn't stand and almost fainted). So I eat: jalapeno cream cheese on almond crackers, three other kinds of cheese, about half a pound of fruit, and the denouement was almonds in a large plastic cup with whipping cream and about three tablespoons of wildflower honey.
I went to bed feeling rather crappy thank you. I think the stress of the upcoming vacation is starting to affect me ;-)
Back on the wagon this morning.
Jim
