Just a quick update this Monday. Things are going well. I'm still cleansing. It definitely is the hardest on the weekends, and when people who are not on the cleanse are around me eating delicious food. This weekend we went to a housing warming party, so I made sure to eat a really big dinner before going so I wouldn't cheat. At the party I stuck to pistachios and crudite. I feel good though. In general I have all my energy back plus probably a little bit more. I think cutting caffeine out of my life has been a good thing. I'm not quite as anxious and I can sleep better. I can also focus pretty well now without having to rely on caffeine. I still have strong coffee cravings though. Post-cleanse, I'm not quite sure how I'm going to handle coffee. Maybe only for special occasions?
This weekend I made some meat-free green pozole with pumpkin seeds and tomatillos and a lot of jalapenos. That should help get me through the last few days of week 2. For dessert and snacks I relied on almonds, strawberries, frozen grapes, and smoothies. It will be so nice to add rice, oats, and eggs back into my diet.
In other news, the 4 boxes of thin mints I ordered just arrived. BOO. I already gave one box away and I'll probably freeze the other boxes to put into smoothies once I'm post cleanse.
