I have a few things I plan to write about in future installments of this blog series, which records my eating and sleep patterns as I make my way through a 60-day version of the Whole30 program, but my time tonight is limited. If you haven’t yet read my posts about blood sugar or the complexity of whole food, give them a try in the meantime.

Here are my food photos for day 10:

Friday, Jan. 24

I woke up at 9:25 a.m. (after heading to bed at 2:25 a.m.). A decently sound sleep, and getting a little earlier. Progress.

Breakfast: 10:40 a.m. | 8 oz. salmon, 1/4 head cabbage, 1/2 rutabaga, 1/2 yellow onion, 4 cloves garlic, 2 Tbsp. coconut oil, herbs & spices

I forgot to take a new photo this morning, so this is the same shot of the dinner skillet. For breakfast, I ate the half that I didn’t eat last night.

Lunch: 2:10 p.m. | 3.75 oz. sardines in olive oil, 1 cucumber, 5,000 IU Vitamin D3 capsule

I inadvertently left my phone in the car today, so this photo was taken with the office iPad.

Dinner: 9:40 p.m. | 8 oz. flank steak, 1/2 sweet potato, 1 carrot, 3 1/2 red chard leaves & stems, 1/2 sweet onion, 4 cloves garlic, 2 Tbsp. coconut oil, herbs & spices

I ate half of the contents of the skillet below, saving the other half for breakfast.
