for day 3, my morning started with yoga. i spent 5 hours in the car yesterday driving up to a meeting and back again so stretching felt pretty good. i focused on hip openers and finished with a brief seated meditation. (that didn't last too long as M started making breakfast and packing lunch in the next room.)
i ate leftover cooked oats with berries for breakfast and had a hard boiled egg for snack. another big green salad served as lunch today with arugula, mushrooms and other raw veggies plus brown rice, chic peas and a little oil and vinegar to dress it. i would have preferred lemon, but they didn't have any where we were.
one avocado, a bunch of grapes, an apple and peanut butter and edamame later and here i am writing this evening. i spaced all that out over the afternoon and evening, but i'm pretty hungry at the moment.
i have to say, i'm surprised at how good i feel physically. i read those testimonials about people who eliminate something from their diet and poof! they're cured of whatever ailed them. i tend to be a bit of a skeptic when it comes to pre-set programs and revelations through diet, but i feel really great. and my digestion is excellent. for me, this stands out as a really big deal as my health issues all revolved around digestion.
although, while i'm not usually a person who craves sweets, i could really go for something sweet to munch on. like a pastry. or bread with jam. fruit tastes sweet, but i crave something with more substance. and i did have a moment today when i was ready to quit early and have some french fries.
in the scheme of things, i'm glad i decided to do this.
You got this!
