One Day Down

It's the end of the first day of my cleanse and for the most part I'm feeling good.  I have a headache though and it feels much later than the 9 o'clock hour that it is.  The food that I ate today was delicious: antioxidant smoothie, sweet potato/celery/apple salad (i forgot to take a pic, but believe me, it was really good), minty pea dip with carrots as a mid-afternoon snack, broccoli & squash with tahini dressing for dinner, and now i'm eating some cherries for dessert.  

Other than the food changes I'm trying to make, I'm also trying to improve other eating-related habits that I've started to form in the past couple of years.  So today at lunchtime, I actually took a lunch break.  I didn't simply eat my lunch at my desk and I didn't just skip lunch, which was happening most days.  I told two of my coworkers of my plan to not eat my lunch at my desk and they then joined me in the kitchen instead of going back to their offices.  (One of them was my awesome supervisor who is currently on Week 2 of the cleanse)  After we ate, I went on a 15 minute walk around the neighborhood.  

I feel like this is going to be a good move if I can keep it up!  

Thanks to everyone who have written some awesome posts.  I took my assessment today and I love the alternate recipes and ideas!  Keep 'em coming!
