February 17, 2011Fitness & Nutrition, Wellnessblogging, clean diet, clean eating, eating, food journal, healthy, Learn Healthy Habits for Life, nutritionKimberly

I have been keeping a journal of my eating habits for 78 days! Thats a big deal for someone who jumps all over the place and has a hard time finishing something she starts. I must pat myself on the back! Oh and HAPPY VALENTINE’s DAY!!!!

Workout – Off Day…but its very tempting. I have been asking for this kind of weather so I can get my butt outside and run more. Its here and what do I do with it, slack. LOL.

Breakfast – Vegan protein shake….no detox but this is my ritual no regular days as well. I only detox 2-3 times per year but drink my breakfast almost everyday. I try my best to have inflammatory foods rarely, maybe 10-20% of my meals. Everything is is clean. My digestive system just does much better. And my skin. And my sinuses.

Lunch – orange with a little sea salt. Can of Amy’s split pea soup and 3 baked wing drums.

Dinner – 1/2 cucumber, 2 Roma tomatoes with cider vinegar, sea salt, olive oil and bragg amino. Roasted turkey deli meat. You know the good kind, the expense kind! LOL Capped the night ff with some almonds and raisins.

Finally had that alcoholic beverage! You know it was a margarita heavy on the tequila! One word – EXCELLENT.

Day 77

Detox is OVER!! I lasted for 41 full days, no alcohol. Yippee. It was not as bad as one might think. I feel really good too. I will have a celebratory cocktail for sure.

Workout – 3 plus miles and 100 push-ups. What a beautiful day it was today. I hope it was where you are!

Breakfast – boiled egg, sliced honey crisp apple.

Lunch – 2 handfuls of rice chips, a couple sweet potato chips and a few pieces of roasted turkey deli meat. No nitrates, preservatives, antibiotic, additives or gluten.

Dinner – Chili, homemade and GREAT! Had a 2nd helping :o. Some nuts and raisins for dessert.

Day 40/27 of detox…went out last night…still no liquor, Voss.

Workout – none

Breakfast – Shake, strawberries and black berries, flax seeds, hemp milk, hemp seeds, last bit of detox powder. Almost done – one day left.

Lunch – 3 baked wing drums. Lame!

Dinner – Olive Garden. Did you know the had a gluten free menu? Yup they do! Had soup and salad though. Salad is on the gluten free menu, no croutons. Minestrone soup – has pasta shells but I order mine all broth and veggies. I was great! Been a while since I had been there.

Day 39/26 of detox….today is Thursday February 10th and I am two days away from be done. Just in time for the weekend. Good news (for me that is) I decreased my body fat by 2.2% in the last 39 days and lost 5 pounds. I would have lost more if I had been on my regular warm weather regimen. I was not trying to lose weight but its unavoidable while detoxing, its a side effect of cleansing. I ONLY care about body fat % and fat mass, not pounds.

Workout – Off day….but I washed my hair and that is a work out by itself!!

Breakfast – Blackberry shake

Lunch – Small portion of quinoa, shrimp and broccoli. 2 baked wing drums randomly in the work fridge, a peach and a few bites of a fruit cup I had. HUNGRY today.

Dinner – A few walnuts, medium cucumber, 5 large cooked shrimp, cider vinegar and olive oil. 2 baked wing drums,

Day 38/25….3 more days and its bottoms up. 😉

Workout – ZUMBA!! Class was packed today. Good times.

Breakfast – back to old faithful. Ok confession…I only used the peach because it was going bad and I did not want to waste it. BUT the chocolate is on the horizon. Prefer it at night.

Lunch – 3/4 of a Protein shake. I teach a nutrition class on Wednesdays so I do the best I can with the eating, that all one could ask!

Dinner – 1/4 of a Protein shake and some quinoa, shrimp and broccoli. A really small portion. Tiny.

Day 37/24…..and the countdown continues.

Workout – Kick boxing class. Not too crowded today so I was able to focus on the students more. They hate it when I am not busy, they can’t cheat!

Breakfast – SURPRISE…I had a peach vegan protein shake!! I told you I would switch it up on your one day, LOL. Same stuff in the shake except the fruit. I finally got my chocolate protein in so I will be able to make a chocolate delight!

Lunch – I forgot my lunch today soooo I had to pick something up. Decided on a medium salad from Publix, romaine, olives, Roma tomatoes, bragg amino, cider vinegar and olive oil. For protein I had baked lemon pepper wings from the hot foods side of deli. They are the dry kind not with all the fattening and inflammatory sauce, prepared like the Mardi Gras wings that I love. I could actually eat chicken everyday. Prefer free range chicken that is fed grass! You should too. EAT ORGANIC as often as possible. Disclaimer: I like the kind with sauce too! Just not while on a cleanse and in moderation.

Dinner – A small serving of cabbage, serving size of some almonds and raisins…here I go wit this crap again. Oh and my detox drink. Almost over.

Day 36/23 of detox. Just as a reminder, I screwed up my detox so I started over. I am using both days on my log because I kept eating clean but not on the correct schedule so I want to keep track of how long I did it right and how long I was on it altogether. 5 days to go!! Looking forward to that tequila.

Workout – Off Day

Breakfast – Shake——-you know the drill! Vegan protein shake.

Lunch – large honey crisp apple, cleanse drink with fiber. My cleanse drink has protein in it so I’m good!

Dinner – half cucumber cider vinegar olive oil bragg and 3 baked Mardi Gras wing drums.

Day35/22 of Detox…moving right along. 6 days left, yippee!

Workout – SLACKER!! Lol. Guess that should say enough.

Breakfast – Rise and shine!! Woke up to a wonderful protein shake.

Lunch – Skipped it. Had 2 baked wing drums. Keep these around! This way I always have some protein in the crib.

Dinner – steamed quinoa, broccoli and shrimp mixed and cooked in one skillet. Cooked in olive oil, bragg, fresh garlic, sea salt and cayenne pepper. AMAZING. Just ask me for the recipe!

Been on a nuts and raisins kick again, especially at night. Trying my best not to snack but its been hard this go round. Only healthy snacks but the calories start to add up after a while no matter how healthy. Working on doing better!

Food Democracy NOW!!

Act Today Or Kiss Your Organics Goodbye!
After years of bureaucratic wrangling, Secretary Vilsack and the Obama administration are only days away from approving Monsanto’s genetically modified (GMO) alfalfa. If approved, GMO alfalfa will fundamentally undermine the entire organic industry overnight. In addition, the USDA says American consumers don’t care about the contamination of organics.

Please join us in calling on Secretary Vilsack and President Obama to stand up for organic family farmers by rejecting the approval of Monsanto’s GMO alfalfa. Tell them to protect organic integrity and seed biodiversity over corporate profits. Click here!
