The plateau has been broken! Hoorah! Finally.

Not much new around here! I’ve been struggling a bit keeping hydrated as winter kicks in. I’m drinking a ton of water (60 oz a day absolute minimum, 80+ most days) and that’s hurting my electrolyte levels, leading to foot cramps at night. I can’t figure out my body’s middle ground. I have my annual doc checkup in a month or so, and I plan to have her check my electrolytes and get some advice.

Other than that, I’ve been a bit lazy with cooking (more like busy, but it makes my meals pretty boring). I did try a couple new products including the Morningstar Farms veggie pulled pork, which I really liked with Keto Connect’s BBQ sauce. I subbed white pepper for black pepper and used too much, so mine was too spicy, but it was still good.

Here’s the photographic evidence!

This is my lazy lunch go-to: some form of sandwich making vessel (Keto Connect low carb bagel, in this case), scrambled egg with cheese, and a Morningstar Farms veggie sausage patty.

This is the new Morningstar Farms veggie pulled pork, with Keto Connect BBQ sauce and plain green beans. I RAN OUT OF KERRYGOLD. The horror. This is the laziest meal ever. I couldn’t even be bothered to put it on mug bread.

Yep, another fathead pizza. Easy breezy beautiful. And green beans. Still out of Kerrygold.

3-minute mug biscuits have saved me this week. This looks boring but there is secretly some sugar free maple syrup between the biscuit and the scrambled egg and cheese, which made it quite delightful actually.

A new find at Costco – Hannah’s Cheesy Cauliflower Dip! I know, this meal looks weird, but it tastes so good! Mug biscuit, Rao’s tomato basil marinara, salted macadamia nuts, and some Flackers.

I made more meatball subs! The 3-meatball version from last week was too much food for one meal, so I did 2-meatball versions (same fathead dough recipe). These were perfect! Raos marinara and Gardien veggie meatballs inside.
