GF - Day #1: Not missing anything yet

Day one was interesting. I feel good and I don't feel like this is going to be very difficult, so far.

I woke up and made a green smoothie. This consisted of:
1/2 avocado
handful of both spinach and kale
1 banana
1/4 cup fat free vanilla yogurt
1/2 cup vanilla almond milk
2 tsp ground flax seed.

This was surprisingly yummy. You don't taste the leafy items and it went down quite smoothly. I was pretty hungry by lunch time, I think I need to add some whey protein powder to tie me over just a little longer. Or have a good snack... I did have a light Baby Bell mid-morning, but it wasn't quite enough.

For lunch, I had brought 1.5 cups of Thai Coconut Curry soup (pick it up at Costco... SOOOO good) with a hand ful of carrots, a turkey pepperoni, an apple and an orange. That made me quite full.

For dinner, I had some potato salad, a bit of cheese and 1/2 a navel orange. For some reason, however, I was horribly craving chocolate, which is odd for me. So, I did the total college thing to do and had a tablespoon of Nutella. It was sooo yummy, and gluten-less, but it had a not so great affect on my stomach.

Other bonus, I ran for 30 minutes at the gym and did some heavy weight lifting. So far, I am feeling good and I'm not 'missing' anything as of yet. I lost a full pound this week at WW and I am looking forward to reporting more later about day #2!
