Started things off right today. Juiced:
- 2 grapefruits
- 2 tangelos
Decided I’m going to quit putting “organic” in front of everything this blog. Just assume that 95% of everything I eat is organic.
Breakfast was:
- Sprouted grain bread
- Peanut butter
- Jam
Lunch was:
- Cucumber
- Carrots
- Grape tomatoes
- Hummus
- Corn chips
Afternoon snack was:
- Oat cereal
- Almond milk
For dinner, I ate leftovers, but this time added:
- Kalamata olives
- Marinara
- Eggplant
- Tofu
- Onion
- Brown rice
Then for dessert:
- Roasted yams
- Maple syrup
And that’s the end of my day. I’m kind of surprised that I’m not feeling horribly deprived. Maybe it’s because I’m still having pretty big portions. When I had the veggies, it was a whole big cucumber, two large carrots and about a cup of tomatoes. That’s a lot!
No liquids today other than the almond milk with my cereal and the squeezed juice upon waking. I’ll have to do better tomorrow.
This is exactly how I transitioned form vegetarian to began in 2006. I started a new blog and chronicled what I ate, how I succeeded, and how I could have done better every single day. Even if it's only for you, journaling your experience gives you a sense of both accountability and accomplishment!
ReplyDeleteGood luck!

Thanks so much for your encouragement! I admit I'm not feeling my usual bloated self at the moment, but I know it's going to be a long haul (at least to reach my first goal). But I didn't put these pounds on a a week, so I have to be patient with myself.
ReplyDeleteI'd love your blog link if it's still available.
