Today was my first real test of willpower as we went to the local pizza buffet for lunch. Even though I'm gluten-free, I typically cheat when we visit this restaurant because pizza is one of my favorite foods; plus they have "dessert" pizza, too...need I say more? I think I did pretty well today...I had chicken without the skin, green beans, and some pizza "toppings" by scrapping the meat and cheese off of the pizza slices. My worst lunch item was the green tea that was sweetened. At least it was regular sugar not high-fructose corn syrup, and I filled the cup with more ice than tea.
Breakfast and dinner were primal compliant as well, yeah! But I'm looking ahead to our local tulip festival later this week and worry that my resolve will fail me. Somewhat like the state fair, there are food booths everywhere sporting an array of goodies, none of which are primal :( To top off the temptations today, I received an email from The Cheesecake Factory about Mother's Day, and I do love cheesecake. I need to learn a few primal recipes to mimic the sweets I'm missing.
