Ultimate Reset while pregnant Update....

      Sorry it's been awhile!  The charger to the laptop broke and I had to wait to get a new one!  Anyways -  I'm finally in the third phase of the Ultimate Reset.  I've been doing things a little differently since I am pregnant.   I've been munching on almonds for extra protein and having a daily shakeology.   The Ultimate Reset is not about starving yourself...it's about resetting your body and teaching yourself how to eat right. 
      On another  note....I cheated.  BOOOOO!  I know, I know.  I succumbed in a moment of weakness.  Turns out, the cookie wasn't that good.   At least not as good as I remembered.  It also gave me a stomach ache and heartburn.  The positive thing it did....was take away my cravings!  I was having intense cravings for sweets, and now its gone!  It's a huge relief because I'm not feeling "on edge" all the time.
      I'm so glad I decided to do this reset again.  I know I'm pregnant and couldn't do it all - like the detox... but I feel great.   I love that I am giving my body and my growing baby good, healthy foods that are optimal for nutrition!  Granted - this is by far the hardest it has been.  Not only am I pregnant and dealing with cravings, but it's winter.  Veggies are not as fresh, fruits are limited and not as fresh, and I'm stuck inside.   I do a lot that revolves around food so this had been quite difficult.
       During winter I love going out to eat or ordering in.  I hate that so much of my life has revolved around food.  I've actually been invited to go to dinner a few days after I complete this program.  To be honest - I'm scared to go.  I've been eating so clean and healthy the past three weeks that eating out has the potential to "stir up some trouble" in my stomach lol.    The place where every one is going has a lot of fried foods, pizza, calzones.... not sure thats what I want to eat right away.  It's not that I can't have that type of food again, but I don't really want too.  I know I will want to every now and then, but I don't want to sabotage myself.  It is VITAL that I do well and eat healthy.  Not only for my childrens sake, but for my own.  I am striving for a VBAC and I need to be healthy to do that.  
      I should stop now before I go into another topic!  Sometimes I start rambling and don't stop!  I wish you a good night and hope you stay healthy!
