Breakfast on the skillet & The finished product
The herbal coffee tasted different from the average cup of joe. The Chocolatey-Minty Flavor help make it palatable. And it has about 6 g of protein from the whey powder, which was kind of nice. ~_o
Herbal Coffee provides no energy boost whatsoever. I think I’ll try drinking organic tea. Or maybe even organic *coffee.* Caffeine is prohibited though, as it works the liver too hard and distracts the liver from burning/ metabolizing the fat. Herbal coffee and tea it is.

Behold:
Not the most delicious juice, but not terrible either. I prefer *eating* the fruit. The juice is more effective, as they say. It’s still considered a carb-y fruit, so it’s not entirely FFP-Friendly. I’m having it in small, limited amounts, I hope that will be okay.
And now to prepare dinner. I am very tired. It might be because I didn’t get enough sleep yesterday from sleeping late + waking up intermittently from taking care of River. I miss coffee. I’m starting to miss cheese. I miss chocolate.

Meet my dinner, smiling up at me. Not bad. I was satisfied.
