Good Morning! Better mood today thank goodness!

 Hey guys :)  Its officially day 4 and I am feeling wonderful!! 

I didn't have to drink the fiber drink this morning!!  (insert hallelujah chorus here)

Yesterday was a good day challenge wise.  I stayed on point and ate more of the dirt lettuce for lunch and then I realized...I was to the middle of the lettuce head..which is all kinds of nasty. So I tossed it away and got ready to go to the store.

Yeah.  I still have no pants.  Crap.
So I start digging around in my closet and I find a pair of high waisted "mom jeans" someone had given me.  Man. Tapered ankle and a high waist. Thank goodness this was only a run to the store. ...

I had found a recipe for a cleanse phase friendly taco salad that I really wanted to try and I headed to the good ole save mor with my list in hand.

THEY WERE OUT OF GROUND TURKEY!!!!!!

You may as well have shot my dog.  I was heartbroken and baffled.  What the hell was I going to eat?!?~  With a HUGE pout on my face I walked round, and around and around the store looking for things I could have (wheat flour is nonexhistent in vernon btw)  I settled on getting taco stuff for the family and I figured I'd find a way to dress up the chicken breast strips I had in the freezer at home.

So I begin making TWO SEPERATE DINNERS (which is gonna stop...very soon)
Let me just jot down what I used, and what I did since a couple folks would like to see what I made last night.  I didn't take a picture of it, a) I was super hungry and ate it before snapping b) my iphone camera SUCKS.

Shelly's Chicken Whatever Stuff :D

1 roma tomato diced
1/2 green bell pepper (if you like bell pepper use the whole thing)
1 small yellow onion
1/2 cup of BROWN RICE
2 small chicken tenderloin skinless boneless
2 tsp of taco seasoning (like out of the packet)

BEAR IN MIND THIS IS FOR ONE...IF U WANNA COOK FOR FAMILY BY ALL MEANS USE MORE THAN ONE TOMATO.
On the challenge we can't use heavy creams, syrups, butter, or dressings so the tomato makes a juice and it compliments the stuff well.

I baked the chicken ( I covered it in tony chacheres seasoning bc I SO didn't want bland chicken that night)
Once the chicken was done, I scooped out 1/2 cup of the brown rice I had already made and set those to the side.
Cover a non stick pan in Pam, and drop the diced items into the pan.  Like a stir fry.  Let it reduce a bit and then add the chicken and the taco seasoning and toss around some more.  Lastly add the rice and then VOILA!!

Since I can't have tortilla's or cheese or the chips, I wrapped a spoonful of the mixture in a lettuce leaf and MAN!!  I thought I had made something I couldn't have bc it tasted so good :)  I was so scared that I'd eat too much so I only ate about 4 spoonfuls with lettuce pieces and I put it away.  I did good :)

I don't know how many calories, etc that it had but it was so filling that it had to have been something.  But then again I haven't SEEN rice in a few days so my body was probably like YES!~ heehee.

I woke up this morning feeling great and ready for day 4.  It is a gloomy day outside so I am going to try and keep myself busy inside but if I feel better as this goes I am super excited.

Oh.  I can have pickles. 

SCORE~~
