One of the lessons I am learning during this purification process...is to be prepared.
As a wife, mother, business owner and many other responsibilities, it is very easy to get engulfed in chaos. Rushing here...running there...putting out any fire along the way. I find that the structure of the program has lessened this stress.
Meal Planning
In order to keep food in the house for 2 desperate meals, 3 times a day I started meal planning. I still visit the market a couple times a week because if the short shelf life of healthy food, but a half hour to hour pre-planning on Sunday and keeping the Supplement Checklist posted on the fridge (or in my husband's case on his desk) has been very effective for us.
Cutting the greens & vegetables in the morning for the day and making an extra shake in the morning has also worked well. I did not do the first week of the cleanse and found myself just not eating. I am not sure whether to say I was lazy, busy or just unprepared, but I know that NOT EATING does not work on this program.
Even though I work at home, my husband does not. I share this because some of you may think,"sure you can do it you don't have to leave your house."
Dave eats more raw vegetables and salads simply because he can not heat food at work. We do not use microwaves so he eats his 50% raw vegetables throughout the day with a large salad at lunch. He was really glad to add the chicken to that salad today.
Here is today's Intake Journal:
DAY 10 - Daily Intake Journal
What did you eat today?
***Worked through breakfast
Greens with 1/4 avocado, carrots & olive oil with balsamic vinegar
Blueberry & banana Shake - added gastro fiber to shake instead of taking capsules.

How are you feeling?
I like the changes in my body. Want to added more exercise to increase the change in thighs and waist.

BM have stopped being regular, body a little achey and sore from the adding daily exercise.
