Day 8

Breakfast: Low glycemic fruit, including oranges, berries, melon, and grapes

Lunch: Micro green salad with avocado

Dinner: Pinto beans and rice with steamed zucchini and green beans with lemon

I was thrilled to begin week 2.  Not only does it mean I am 1 week closer to the end of the reset, but also I have a lot of new delicious items on the menu.  Today's round up of food was so delicious, I could eat all 3 every day.  I will never tire of fruit for breakfast so this week should be great since that is on the menu almost every day.  Too bad there is not much fruit in season right now...might be a benefit of doing the reset during the summer.  The pinto beans and rice was amazing and a meal that could easily be whipped up on a week night for the fam.  I thought the cup serving of rice was quite a bit for the amount of bean, I left some in the bowl.  I also added some Bragg liquid aminos to the veggies and that gave them a great flavor.  Will be doing that in the future, also.

I am continuing with the supplements from last week and adding a detox concoction 3 times a day.  I was scared to add another powdered supplement to the mix because the alkalinize tastes so terrible, but I actually enjoyed the detox today.  It is like drinking an Indian spice tea, cold.  A bit grainy and you need a lot of water, but the taste is surprisingly delicious.  I was also scared that the detox would cause a lot of bathroom (for lack of better word) issues, but after 3 packs today, I haven't seen much of a change.  Still making lots of trips because of the water intake, though. 

I also did another session of beginner yoga, which was great.  My muscles seem tired and I think the yoga helps to stretch them out.  This is not strenuous at all, just very easy and slow paced.  I find it very relaxing and peaceful, too, which I definitely need.  It helps me slow down.

Until tomorrow...
