Day 5 of challenge

Well, I have made it through 5 days of Leeny's challenge.  I have done pretty well, but I think I can do better.  I need to be careful not to slip back into my coasting habits and not eat enough protein.  I made some salad for lunch in the week-only had it one day, but it was a nice change.  I also took tomato and basil soup to work, which pretty much kept me going all week.
I have replaced the vast majority of my coffee with Teavana tea.  I have had about 1/2 a cup in the mornings with some almond milk, but then drank tea the rest of the day.  I have definitely got my water intake up
We were off work today (ice storm) and so I made some fruit clafouti to eat when I want something sweetish
I made a batch of paleo muffins because I had some marmalade left in the fridge.  I have not made them for a while because they have quite a bit of fat in them.
I also made some paleo mayonnaise, mixed it will hot sauce, and used it as a dipping sauce for chicken
I am fighting (and losing!) a cold this week, which is making me feel very achy.  I can tell if it's the sugar withdrawal or the cold that is making me feel this bad.  Drinking all this tea has to help though
