Day two of cleanse

Ok-- at this point 14 days seems like a very long time.  I did not feel great or energetic. I feel like laying around. In fact i fell asleep on the floor yesterday with the kids st 4:30. I woke up this morning and my Bowels were unhappy. I have to say I am a very regular person and typically my bowels are pretty happy with me, so this is a change... Not so much for the better.

I am keeping with it though, it is only day two. :).   Breakfast this morning is brown rice, walnut, hemp seed milk porridge.  I am going to try to post more to help keep me motivated!

bad day


After our long talk today about being healthy and planning a juice fast, I came home and ate half a bag of sour patch kids!? Tomorrow will be better, I will start the day in my work out clothes, go for my run and make better food choices. Promise.

I accidentally weighed myself tonight - the boys were playing with scale. Yep, i have gained 2 pounds. Not super happy about that - but it does give me motivation to keep trying and push harder. it might even motivate me enough to do this cleanse.  http://consciouscleanse.com/

I bought the book on amazon and just got it in yesterday - need to do some reading to make sure i am not setting myself up for failure. With two kids and a sick husband - i really dont have much time to cook something different for myself every meal. I will keep you posted...

Dinner

So I made a salad for dinner. It is a chick pea, avocado, tomato, sprouts and pumpkin seeds. I made a goat cheese dressing -- it looks pretty good-- however, my body really wants to go eat a bagel with butter. :)
OK OK OK.   I lost my path (not my butt) and i am getting back on the health and fitness game. Went to the gym today and worked out for hour. Ate a good breakfast, trying to drink tea instead of snacking and i also bought a new book called the Conscience Cleanse. I know the woman who wrote it, her son goes to the same preschool as mine.  I will get the book in a week or so and share what i learn. It is a cleanse program that is based on real food - the idea being that you can detox everyday by eating the right foods for your body.  I will keep you updated....
