Day 7

Yesterday we had to get up early to substitute teach a seminary class. We were on the hook to bring donuts, but I didn't eat any, nor did my wife. (They ate them up pretty quick). The bakery we get them from also has breakfast burritos, croissants, biscuits and kolaches which has inspired me to try to make some tortillas this weekend and freeze some compliant breakfast burritos. Lunch was the usual Caesar salad again to use that up. We had to run to Lawton, OK to get some things right after work, so I was forced to eat out. In an effort to stay as true as possible, we went to Carl's Jr and I got a Beyond Meat Famous Star. I've been wanting to try this since I tried the Impossible Burger at Burger King which was really good and you can actually get the Beyond Meat stuff in Lawton. I also took the bad parts of the tomato as best I could (seeds and skin). The burger was okay, but the Impossible Burger is much better in my opinion. I think my wife would like the Beyond Meat better as it is not as flavorful. She pulls so many toppings off the burger that the Impossible Burger has too much flavor for her (it was designed to compliment a normal burger). I also had a side salad with balsamic vinaigrette and a water. We did some grocery shopping, but sadly I couldn't find one of the things I was looking for: Root Beer extract. There is none of that for over at least hundred miles. It is interesting to note that I found the Beyond Meat at the store, but when I read the ingredients they were definitely not Plant Paradox compliant/lectin free. I Googled and Dr. Gundry confirmed this and has his own burger recipe. We'll have to try that some time. They are probably better for you, but not the best. No weight loss at all for the first time yesterday, but having to eat out kind of throws a wrench in that. I do find it interesting that I found a few articles on the MSN newsfeed about health and certain foods and they totally support what is said in the Plant Paradox. Still feeling good, we'll see if I get to the tortillas Saturday. See ya later.
