Today I was pretty tired and actually felt weak!  This is by far much harder than I thought it would be for me.  Yesterday seemed easier as far as cravings….  Today I am craving everything!  Meat especially.  I think it’s because I just recently started to taper off my meat intake so my body is in total shock!  I have lost 4 pounds but I really think it’s because I’m drinking lots of water and it’s flushing me out.

I had a green smoothie for breakfast which was very filling….. Then we went to the grocery store and that was hard b/c it was around lunch time and I was hungry!!! When we got home, I made some fresh guacamole with jimaca fries to dip with and I was stuffed! Later on that day I had a banana cut up with lemon juice and it hit the spot. I had bought some almond butter today so that was a huge life saver for dinner! I have a headache now but I think it’s sinuses.



My morning start.

Well, I woke up and made a gigantic green smoothie with kale, bananas and blueberries.  I also added ground flax seed to it.  It’s huge so I am full for now!  I am about to go to my whole foods store for some more ingredients….

It’s a good start for me as well…..

I have a list made of additional things I will need from the store tomorrow….. But for the morning I have what I need to get started!

I’m so nervous about this. I think my biggest fear is the weak feeling or headaches!!! I had a very light dinner so I will be huuuungry in the morning!

I will be settling in bed soon with a good book and hopefully a good nights sleep!
