A week since my endocrinologist appointment.

It's been a week since my appointment with the endocrinologist, 6 days since beginning my new medication and 6 days since changing my eating habits. I weighed myself on Sunday morning, just because I noticed I felt lighter and most of the water retention in my legs were gone. I mean, my legs did not look swollen for the first time in... I don't even know how long! I stepped on the scale and to my surprise, I lost over five pounds -- in just a few days. I'm sure that most of it was water weight. I knew I've been retaining a ton of water, so I've been drinking cranberry, hibiscus tea everyday at work.

I went grocery shopping this weekend and bought organic meat. I can't believe how expensive the stuff is. I spent $90 on meat alone this week!

Today is my third day on Whole30. I'm so proud of myself because I've been eating better than I ever have. Yesterday morning, I had two hard boiled eggs for breakfast with some watermelon, for lunch I had leftover meat sauce with spaghetti squash, and for dinner I had seared salmon with spinach and mushrooms. It was delicious!

Today I had an egg white omelet with peppers, spinach and onions for breakfast and a banana with coconut water to drink. I then had a sparkling water. For lunch, I'm eating three hardboiled eggs with watermelon. I'm drinking herbal tea with it. For dinner, I'm making roasted chicken with vegetables.
