Today, 20/11/11, I ate

Breakfast: 9:45AM
Protein Smoothie
Allergy meds
Cromium Picolinate
Probiotics

Exercise: 4 mile walk around Albert Park lake with a good friend

Lunch: 2:00PM
Not that hungry but headed out to the Polish festival and did not want to eat heaps of Polish fair
Leftover cabbage
Jello fortified with glutamine
Spoonful of pumpkin, chili dip

Polish Festival: 3-5PM
1 Polish vodka
Bigos
Potato pancake (not paleo)

Exercise: 3 mile walk home from the festival, felt good after the potato pancake splurge.

Snack: 7:30PM
After making some homemade cilantro, pepper and garlic lean burgers, I ate about 2 ounces of a mini burger along with a slice of gluten free bread and almond butter.

Sundays are always a little different as are my eating patterns closing down the weekend. Do you find Sundays or would it be Saturdays or Friday nights harder to stay on track of your health or diet goals? Sometimes I think a day with a few splurges should not be a day of guilt but a reason to try harder tomorrow. If I were to give myself a grade for today, I would give myself another B. I strive for a 100% paleo and I need to make a decision and stick to it. 

Please let me know if there is anything else you want me to add to each daily post.

Cheers to you and good health!
