We had a storm today. It actually started in the night with the wind just howling. We live in an older house and our bedroom door was rattling. That woke me up. Then, it was the wind whipping around the trees and branches hitting the window. Oh, and I'm struggling with Plantar fasciitis and suffering pain in my heal. These sharp, stabbing pains were pulsating in my heal every few seconds. Miserable.
It was my workout day so I knew my alarm clock would go off at 4:10. It was not at all a restful night.
When I met my trainer around 5:30 she suggested we go get coffee. I was all over that idea!
So, even thought I'm struggling with these aches and pains, I have remained focused on this fast.
Tonight I made some very yummy Black Bean Burgers.
Here is the recipe:
1 15 oz. can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup steal cut or rolled oats
1 small onion, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cilantro, chopped
1/4 applesauce
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1/3 cup spelt breadcrumbs
2 tsp. EVOO
I put all the ingredients in the food processor and then made up six small patties, I rolled them in the breadcrumbs and then lightly browned them on each side. I ate it with avocado and salsa. Yummy!
The whole getting off of sugar hasn't been easy. The good thing is I have three days down. Each day should be easier.
