It's day four! WOOHOO! I'm feeling so good. I was a little tired today but that's because I stayed up too late. Good books always get ya! :) Today I remembered all my supplements and even got down the alkenize without gagging. Don't get too excited now. You'll never hear me say "Mmmm.....I love this alkinize" but its getting easier. My energy levels are up. I'm more productive and am doing it without feeling groggy or tired. It's truly fantastic. I feel like I have finally gotten the sleep I need. That hasn't happened in such a long time! I do notice that my skin is drier. Particularly my scalp. I suppose that is part of the process though. Whatever gets the gunk out right? Now.... on to the good part - FOOD!
Fruit and yogurt with a little bit of raw honey! It was so good. 2 cups of fruit, 1/2 cup of yogurt. I had oranges, strawberries, blueberries, and cherries. The little green plate is my sons. He gobbled it up. Part of the reason I'm doing this is to teach my son to eat healthy. To show him that eating healthy is good. Another bonus to this breakfast? Super easy to whip up and very little utensils used in preparing it! I love it when my day starts off with fruit and minimal dishes!
Lunch today was supposed to be Nori rolls but I had the Microgreen salad instead. I've got lots of veggies to use up before they go bad! I decided that the jicama tasted a bit like radishes. They add a nice, crisp, crunch to the mix. The red bell pepper was also extra special because it came direct from my friends garden. For some reason, food from friends tastes better. I also tried to save lots of my seeds and nuts for the end. I like to save the best for last.
Today I wanted a snack and I chose crackers and a hard boiled egg. It was most excellent. I wanted more crackers but I was good and stuck with my six. The boiled egg also tasted great. Not sure what it is about boiled egg that I love so much. :)
Dinner tonight was halfway AMAZING and halfway blah. The stir fry with quinoa was fantastic. Well, the second time. Here is a friendly tip, when the directions say "high heat" that does not mean to cook on the highest setting. My first attempt at stir fry resulted in a smokey house and burnt to a crisp veggies. Thankfully I had enough to make a second batch! Which turned out FANTASTIC! I must say that I did a great job. I think after the reset I will make it again but add shrimp. Doesn't that sound yummy? Now, the second picture is supposed to be cucumber tomato salad. I had no tomatoes so I did without. I'm not a fan of cucumbers, red wine vinegar, or balsamic vinegar. I think if I have to do this again I do without the dressings. I didn't get all of it down, as the stir fry with quinoa was a lot, but I did eat quite a bit.
Overall another successful day. I'm happy with the results I'm seeing and with how I'm feeling. I can't believe I am almost done with week one. Just three days left. It excites me. One part of me honestly wants to say - Once done I'm going to eat whatever I want. But from what people say - the cravings go away and you don't have that when you are done. It will be quite interesting to see if this reset really gets rid of my sugar cravings. Only time will tell. But lately I feel like I'm stuck at home. At home I don't have junk food staring me in the face begging for me to take just one bite. I am afraid to travel far because if I'm out and hungry that will make things worse. I pray that this is the answer I've been looking for to help me. I need this.
That's all for now. As always, if your interested in knowing more,
