If you want to lose weight over the holidays, just get the flu. Steve and I are both down for the count, and even Chico seems to just want to cuddle. I'm at the point where I'm debating solid food, but even if we had cookies, which we don't, I don't think I'm ready to indulge! I had one cold this year, and I totally thought how it's great that we're healthy and we rarely get sick. HA! I think some bugs you just can't avoid.
I'm actually kind of curious what Paleo people eat when they're sick. You can't have crackers or toast or even rice or ginger ale. More sweet potatoes, probably. Me, I've had ginger ale and sherbet, and they were both pretty good. I would've had crackers, too, but Steve forgot them!
We are travelling for the holidays, so we brought about 5 bags of food with us, and so far haven't eaten much of it. We spent $120 at the grocery store, too! Next time, I have to remember to pack SPICES, because they're too expensive to buy a whole jar for one teaspoon, when you have some at home! We also brought our Ninja blender and food processor. It's quite a production. There are a few places we looked up where we might eat out, but it's better to eat at home if we can. Even at family's houses, we have to be extra careful, because (real-life example) they might not realize that not all chicken broth is gluten free!
We are planning to have spaghetti squash tomorrow (very Christmas-y) with meat sauce (ground turkey, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce). And maybe eggs for breakfast, to test the waters!
I hope you're enjoying a happy and healthy holiday with your family! Merry Christmas!
