Quick update to get me back on track....Now Day 10

I went out of town for the weekend, but tried to adhere to the program as much as possible. It isn't hard. I just tried to incorporate a little of what I've eaten already on the plan. I didn't stick to the plan to a "T", but I was pretty good. I did have a glass of wine with dinner one night, but it was small and let me tell you, worth it!

I also had an esspresso for breakfast and let me just say, there is NO better rush than having coffee for the first time in over a week! I just sipped about half of it and that was it. I felt energized and happy the rest of the day. It was a conscious choice and I really took the time to just taste the coffee.

I didn't experience any headache the next day or the day after which surprised me. So I felt really ok with cheating a little.

So Monday, I had the day off from work to stay home with my kid for MLK day. I stuck to my program except for when I went to the mall. Orange Cup was SCREAMING my name. It's natural frozen yogurt, so I didn't feel guilty. I had the Glo cup with Mochi, Mango and raspberries. It was really nice to enjoy something that really is good for me. It was a bit sweet as I haven't had much sweet to eat. So my tastebuds were having a small soire in my mouth!

So Tuesday comes and I'm back to work and find it a lot easier to follow the plan exactly as it is laid out again. I had everything that was called for, but had a small bit of chocolate after my tofu stir-fry.

So that brings me to

DAY 10

I have been getting quite used to the food on the program. I find it really easy to prepare and eat everything. I really enjoy that I am putting nothing but whole foods into my mouth and about 80% organic. I'd like to be 100%, but it's just not possible for me. I live too far from Whole Foods and my Walmart has a fair amount of organic foods, but not all that I need. I make a few special trips to WF when I can.

Lemon Water and Flora tea. Lemon water was taken on the way to work in the car. I had let it set for too long and it was REALLY sour! I worry what it might be doing to my teeth enamel. My flora tea, I had to bring to work.

Breakfast. "Power Breakfast"
Organic Plain yogurt, Udo's Oil, Almond Butter, Blueberries, 1/2 a banana, Walnuts, Pumpkin Seeds, Cashews. This was a lot. I just used up what I had left of the yogurt...it was supposed to be 1/2 c, but I think it was more like 1 cup. I had a hard time getting it all down. I think my stomach is small now, so it fills up pretty fast.

Snack. Apple & Peanut Butter

Lunch. Spinach and Leafy Greens with a tomato, egg salad made of 2 Brown free-range organic eggs, celery and EVOO Mayonnaise.

I will update about dinner to begin tomorrow's post. I have a small headache today, but it is mainly due to work stress. I need to do some pranayama at lunch I think. I need to refocus my intention with this detox. I seem to be wavering from the center of it. That's typical of me though. That is exactly why I need to finish this so bad.
