    Great work people! :) Keep it up.

    Day 4 was good for me as well. Getting anxious with the weekend coming up though (that's usually where I fall apart, haha). We don't have any big plans though so it should be good!

    Yesterday, I had:
    B: Chicken leg, unsweetened apple sauce, coffe and coconut milk.
    L: Chicken leg, Salad w/ avocado and olive oil, and some stir-fried cabbage.
    D: Chicken and Shrimp Coconut curry (with vegetables) on some cauliflower rice.
    Dessert: unsweetened apple sauce (i need to find some alternatives!)

    I also had a minor cheat! (I'm not restarting though! haha). For my chicken, I'd used a bit of sesame oil to grease the pan and I didn't find out until last night that that was a no-no (heated sesame oil). Oops!

    I used up most of our meat and veggies from going shopping last Monday. Going back tonight - hope it's cheaper this time. We've spent $160 so far and it hasn't even been a week! haha.

    I always thought the seed oils...etc. where an absolute NO on W30, but I found out that it's just advised to avoid... I think you'll be alright :)

    Ya, I just found that out yesterday. They say as-is should be limited (high omega-6 profile), but heating should be an absolute no. I'd used less than a teaspoon to oil the baking sheet, so I'm not counting it. haha

    I didn't spend too too much time studying the intricacies of the program before starting and stuck to the big lines of no grain, sugar, booze, dairy, and legumes. So I'm still learning every day! haha. Reading the Can I Have thread in the forum there has helped too.
