Citrus Chicken and Cherry Walnut Compote

Happy Friday!!!!

I'm going to try harder to post on the day things happen.  I'm sure it doesn't really matter to my readers but since I am also using this as a sorta journal/accountability project it seams like I should.

Since my last post I have "cheated" a little.  Wednesday was WINGS day at our local joint.  I went with my friends and I did indeed order the wings.  I should have ordered them plain but I didn't think about that I just got them the way I always do, with Carolina sauce.  I did get a side salad so at least there's that.  The good thing about my cheat was that I couldn't eat all my wings which is a first.  I also felt really full all day and being aware of how I feel after I eat certain things is great.  I'm glad I've started noticing things like that.  It can only help me make better decisions.  Dinner that day was good.  Since I was so full I just had leftover tuna steak and some fruit salad.

Thursday I met Ryan for lunch and we went to Zoe's Kitchen here in Brentwood.  I had the grilled chicken pita sandwich with pasta salad.  Big Paleo oops.  :(  I ended up not really eating the pita but just the chicken out of it and of course I ate the pasta salad cause it's one of my favorite items from Zoe's.  This meal didn't really seam to bother me to much physically or otherwise.  I didn't over eat and although bread and pasta are no nos in Paleo my recently started lifestyle change in not that instilled.  I made sure to eat a great dinner to make up for it.

Citrus Chicken and Cherry Walnut Compote

The recipe called for frozen cherries but Kroger didn't have any so I just used raspberries.  It was delish!  I am also having it for lunch today and I can't wait!
