WOW! I weighed in this morning and I lost 6 pounds in 7 days. I've been trying to not get attached to the numbers on the scale – which is why I will only weigh in once per week – but I think a 6 pound loss warrants talking about. Don’t you? While detoxing and cleansing were important factors in deciding to embark on this journey, I also wanted to break a weight loss plateau and it sure seems like I am accomplishing that goal! I'm feeling more "normal" by the day now...hoping by next week I will be feeling awesome with tons of energy!! I haven't had a headache in a couple days now, so I think all of my addictions...such as caffeine, sugar(tho I didn't overload on sugar I'm sure completely removing it did play some part in my headaches!) as well as all the other bad stuff in my diet that I removed all in one week!:) I had a pretty amazing herbal tea today from Starbuck's! It is called Vanilla Rooibos Tea(Tazo brand) It was amazing! However, I'm pretty sure this was so tastey just b/c it was in a Starbuck's cup & I'm a coffee addict...so it was kinda the same as ordering my skinny latte! LOL!
So here's a breakdown of my meals :)
Breakfast - A plate full of yummy fresh fruit...what's not to LOVE?!
Lunch - Microgreen Salad with 1/8 of an avocado(btw yes I know I spelled it wrong on my pic but I'm not going back to change it now...so people that hate misspelled words, so sorry!) ;) I also put walnuts on my salad today to change it up a little... and I squeezed fresh lime on it, and topped it off with some basic vinaigrette! Deliciouso!!
Supper - Well if you've been following my posts you know we had a "potty" incident....yep we had to go buy a new one at Lowe's tonight & it was a little like flushing money down the toilet (LITERALLY) hehe...I cracked myself up with that one...the hubby didn't think it was that funny! ;) So by the time we got done with all that & keeping up with 2 kids we decided to go to my daughter's favorite restaurant, Russo's Coal-Fired Italian Kitchen. I knew my choices would be limited but my daughter seemed to have her heart set on eating there. Yeah if you are wondering...the beans in the crock pot didn't happen this morning!! By the time I thought about it, was way too late to be done in time for supper, so we will have that meal tomorrow night & my hubby is super excited he gets beans & cornbread!(I'll be having brown rice instead of cornbread with mine!) I will probably top it with some salsa....yum! So back to tonight's supper...it was between Cucumber Salad & Caprese...I probably should have chosen the Cucumber Salad or even a Greek Salad but I WANTED the yummy juicy tomatoes!! It was great:) This phase still allows some dairy so it wasn't actually a "cheat" but I probably could have made a better choice. My hubby thought it was funny I was taking a picture of my food at every meal, I told him y'all are keeping me accountable! If even one person is reading my blog posts...it's worth it! I want to finish this Reset strong & to the best of my ability...8 days in, can't give up! I won't give up!
I'd better head towards more of that beauty sleep, I sure need it with this greasy face & hair from detoxing! haha!!! G'nite y'all!
