Day 15 ... Half way, oh Yeah!

Yes day 15 officially marks half way and I am actually loving it.

I am, however, very sorry that I forgot to photograph my lunch aka Scotch egg and salad as I totally got carried away and snaffled it before I remembered so I will try again tomorrow.

In work today there was a massive tray of bakery cakes that were delivered from the local bakery and of all places they were right on the end of my desk all morning.  I didn't need one and it didn't bother me either which was really amazing.  I could smell them and I can still appreciate the nice smell but it didn't make me want them or need them and I didn't feel bad for not being able to eat one either. 
One thing I really did enjoy though was watching and listening to other people coming and going with excuses and leaving with a cake.  I heard things like 'I shouldn't really but ...' and 'I'll start again tomorrow' and 'I've been good recently so ..' ha ha, honestly ... and it was the most entertaining part of my day and I was really pleased as I am no longer using one of those excuses, thank goodness, and try as they might the others couldn't persuade me to eat one either as I simply kept repeating 'I don't snack between meals' and I was the only one telling the truth!

So, the rest of my day 15 was like this: -

Breakfast

Hard Boiled Egg
Cherry tomatoes
Half an avocado
Kiwi

Lunch

Homemade Scotch Egg
Rocket
Cucumber
Raw carot
Closed handful of cashews
Melon

Dinner

Steak mince burger
Onions and Mushrooms cooked in Ghee
Roasted Sweet Potatoes
Rocket
Cherry tomatoes
Cucumber

Roll on day 16 ...  :)

Day 14 and I made Ghee and Scotch eggs!

It's Sunday again and therefore it's day 14.  I have successfully managed 14 clean days. It really is a journey of discovery for me - where food and in particular taste is concerned.  Salad is really tasting amazing and so is fruit .... never thought I'd say that.

I also made my first Ghee today from organic non salted butter.  I only made a small amount but it was pretty straight forward so I will make a bigger batch next time.


This is the Ghee (Clarified butter) I made: -

This is all the gunk that I strained out

I also made 10 scotch eggs! But I will show you a photo tomorrow.

So here's my food today on day 14: -
