Nidoqueen's Journal, 04 Jul 18

Happy 4th of July! Had a great day with the family and now I'm home relaxing. Had 3 of my 4 grandchildren, my only child, hubs, my only brother, and both my parents. Couldn't ask for more! Mom did most of the cooking (except the steak which my brother cooked on the grill) and I brought the dessert -- low carb, of course. I did eat a little bit of fruit, which is something I rarely do, but I bypassed the potato salad and corn on the cob. (And I forgot to take a pic till I had already eating the deviled eggs).

And to top it all off, I ended my day with nearly perfect macros, despite the holiday foods. I know some folks are not fans of meal replacement drinks but I had one tonight that was the best I've ever had. I got free samples of a couple of flavors from NutriKeto and decided to try the Gourmet Chocolate one. I mixed it in my Nutribullet with a cup of unsweetened cashew milk and a few ice cubes. OMG, it was amazing. It was chocolatey with an overtone of coconut, but not really a coconut flavor. It was one of those things that I sipped slowly because I didn't want it to be gone. I will definitely be ordering some of these soon.


And to all who commented on my last post, thank you SO much for all the support. I am enjoying my day today, scale be damned. My macros are good, my food was delicious, and I am looking fine and feeling great!
