Can you believe I'm already on day 5? I'm very excited about it. It's nearing the end of week one which means I'll start the second week soon and be close to finishing. I admit that I am nervous about the detox. It's taken three times a day. I just got used to the alkenize. Which, I might add, went down pretty smooth today. I am impressed. I thought for sure I'd gag every time but that isn't the case. I am surprised that I'm getting used to it so fast. Very unusual for me. But I guess this week is proving to be unusual. I'm sleeping better, drinking more water, have more energy, and am more alert than ever. I bought a couple DVD's today. One was Yoga Booty Ballet Meditation and the other was Ho Ala Ke Kino. Yes I realize they are old school but they are approved fore the Ultimate Reset and will benefit me no matter what. Lets move onto food shall we?
This was breakfast. Yummy, delicious, sweet breakfast. 1 cup of oatmeal with 1 tablespoon of maple syrup and walnuts. Paired with 1/2 an apple. I loved the sweetness of the maple syrup. It was a great addition to the oatmeal and perfect start to the day! Oatmeal and fruit - you can't go wrong!
This was lunch. Quinoa salad and a veggie plate. I was also supposed to have hummus but don't like it. I could have used some garbonzo beans but didn't have any cooked. Never the less, lunch was filling. quinoa salad is not my favorite but it was tolerable. I'd eat it again if I had too. The veggie plate was good too. I never was a fan of red peppers but made myself eat them. They were pretty good today.
For a snack I had crackers and an egg again. It was good. :) Really enjoyed it.
I messed up today. I knew we were allowed to have vegan shakeology but didn't realize we could only have it for breakfast. The reason I had it tonight was because my back has been hurting all day. I tried yoga but couldn't get into my regular poses. So I tried a bath and shower but that didn't help either. Then I bent over and my back totally spasmed. It hurt so bad. I immediately went to my chiropractor. It still hurts. I tried making dinner for my son but I couldn't even stand that long. I decided I would just whip up my shake. I was supposed to have brown rice and stir fry. Sounds yummy doesn't it? I would have loved to have that but I just hurt. I am hoping my body is back to normal tomorrow. Apparently, lower back pain is part of the reset. It just means toxins are leaving my body. I just need to drink lots of water. :)
Until tomorrow! As always, if you want any more information, feel free to contact me or click here.
You've got to have the stir fry at some point. It was, in my opinion and Tim's one of the best meals!
