It's the 5th of June and so far so good. I have had no grains except for the Eucharist on Sunday. I was severely tempted both on day one and two. especially day two, I had to get up early for my son's baseball game and I really really wanted a scone and coffee to get me through the 8am game (oh how I love the scones at The Bean). Stuck with my decaff Earl Grey tea and a banana. But only because I told myself I can't give in on day 2!
Lunch today: Hamburger patties topped with sun-dried tomatos, some fancy olives, Fresh pressed garlic, 1/2 a avocado and a little feta cheese. Who needs Ketchup? Also Carats and an apple.
mmmmm... Cant wait for Lunch! .
Sweet Drink Alternative: I struggle also with getting a Vitamin water or Sobe at the gas station, just to have something. My better half has gotten me into squeezing a half a lime into a cool glass of water. It's really good and not overpowering. Not enough taste for you, try adding 1/4 squeezed lemon in it too with a few ice cubes. Perfect!
Day 5 Results: I am feeling a little better all around. I've lost a few pounds. My skin is feeling much better, not so itchy and my hands are not near as numb as they had been. Good to see some results so soon.
Cheating: None really. I had one glass of red wine last night. Still grain/ sugar free. Had a few too many nuts the first few days. I love these things. Can't really call it cheating though.
Exercise/Lifestyle: Another biggest weak point. I'm trying to do a little of Mark Sisson's workout plans. and just a little sore. I need to spend the time reading his whole ebook on the topic. Also I have been going to bed too late. That's just one more of my seemingly endless list of struggles....
