DAY 13
Breakfast: apple
Lunch: (at market) roasted chicken breast with roasted brussel sprouts and mashed potatoes
Dinner: (don't feel like fixing anything) sopressato (sp?) and pecorino romano plus mixed berries and 1 1/2 glasses red wine (finished off the wine)

I craved McDonalds today (saw/smelled someone's McDonalds on the subway; also monthly visitor probably contributed to cravings). Note to self, much less symptoms of pain this month. Is it the paleo?!?

[bamabelle]

Nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnoooooooooooooooo!!! I just succumbed to peanut M&Ms. You see my monthly visitor is here. And I have the entire contents of my pantry that I am getting rid of sitting on my counter right now---waiting on neighbors to come through and take what they may want. And the peanut M&Ms have been sitting there without tempting much; until now I had a small handful and 2 glasses of local grass fed whole milk. So there! I did it
