#whole30 WholeLent, Day 31 (reintroduce legumes).

[angledge]

Sleep: not so good. I did my pre-bedtime routine, but hotpantsgalore stole all the covers at some point & I woke up cold & achy. Also, Shadeaux was snoring like a buzzsaw.

Breakfast: kim-chi, prosciutto muffin, slice of sweet potato quiche, half an avocado, blackberries, black Constant Comment tea.

Snack: second cup of black Constant Comment tea. Zzzzzz, want to nap in sun with Puppeh....

Lunch: Chipotle salad: lettuce, chicken, black beans, pico de gallo, guacamole.

Snack: monkey salad, which tastes much better made with toasted & salted cashews instead of raw cashews.

Dinner: Work and Class!! Love this restaurant! Citrus-mustard braised short ribs, brussel sprout/apple/bacon hash, sweet potato fries, & - oh yes - TWO gin & tonics. I'm so drunk!

Reintro notes: I realized I don't really miss legumes that much - I don't have ANY in the house (except some peanut butter that is for the dog). I ate them at lunch & didn't notice any effects at all. So legumes are likely OK to eat going forward.

Mike and I have separate sheets and blankets because he rolls up in three quilts like a burrito and I just have two thin blankets that I'm tossing on and off throughout the night. Plus we both toss and turn.

I ate them at lunch & didn't notice any effects at all.

Could the effects be cumulative? Good luck any which way!

I think effects might be cumulative, but the way the Whole30 reintroduction schedule works, you try one food group for one day, then go back to the Whole30 for two days, then try another food group. So it was only one day - during which I was supposed to eat more legumes than I did - but I really just didn't wanna.

I don't think I have a sensitivity to legumes anyway - I would never have survived 12 years of vegetarianism (with a HEAVY reliance on legumes) if I did.
