WOOHOO! I'm officially over half way done AND in single digits! I can't believe I've done so well! I think this is the longest I have had absolutely no sugar of any kind. My cravings are really subsiding and that is making life easier. Some times I want stuff but I know I don't "need" it. Even when I see something I like, I see it, think how good it is, and move on. No lingering thoughts!
The Ultimate Reset has a HUGE on line support group. Today somebody posted that they were craving dairy. And it dawned on me - I have not craved it at all in this second phase. I really enjoy cheese and thought I would crave it a lot more than I have. So far so good!
Week two is detoxing, and so far my bowel movements have been - strange? And unsatisfying. I really thought I would have to go a lot more. I feel a bit constipated. Strange isn't it? I guess there is a lot to clean out! I've also been feeling pretty emotional. I know it's part of the cleansing and detoxing but I wasn't expecting it. It really hasn't been too bad. I just notice my feelings a bit more.
The food today was delightful. I mean, it is really amazing how good food is when you truly taste food thats real and not processed.
Breakfast: grapes, cherries, and papaya. The papaya was terrible. It tasted like bug spray. It doesn't even look good does it? I guess that's what I get for buying a tropical fruit that doesn't typically grow in the middle of the country! Maybe I cut it wrong, I don't know. I might be biased as I had high expectations. The first and last papaya I've had was in Hawaii! Oh well, it was still a good breakfast.
Lunch was left over from yesterday. The lentil pilaf with tomato cucumber salad. No picture today. Remember how I said that it was just ok yesterday? Well, today it was fantastic. The lemon flavor was not so bold and I added a couple splashes of liquid aminos. Fantastic. Simply loved it! I could have eaten more to be honest!
Dinner today was vegetable miso soup. I was supposed to have cabbage but some how missed that on the list when I went shopping so I added extra green beans and broccoli instead. Typically I'd add noodles or meat to veggie soup but this was so filling it wasn't needed. I did think some bread would have tasted great dipped in it though. Once again, this reset has provided me with another meal to make! <3
And here is a fun one. I scooped up some soup and this came out! Just like this! At first I was thinking elephant, but now I think it might resemble a mosquito more. What do you think? Either way, I think it's great when your food makes you smile. And I hope this particular picture made you smile. <3
