Day 7 of detox!! Today seems pretty normal for me. Not feeling like I am missing anything by being on the 28 days to Health cleanse.

Workout – None again but I am feeling much better. Still stuffy and congested but chest is clearing and is head.

Breakfast – Old faithful again.  I am waiting to get some more products so I can make some chocolate shakes in the morning and at night once the mandatory 2 shakes per day starts.

Lunch – This was actually my dinner…I did my normal Sunday cooking.  Baked chicken wings, brown rice cooked in turkey stock, sauteed cabbage and carrots in evoo, red pepper flakes, garlic, braggs aminos, sea salt.

Dinner – to be determined.  I am full and my skip it!  Or have a few almonds and a small green apple.

Day 6 of Detox!!!  Its a Saturday today.  I feel like I have been doing this for a while but I have not.  For some reason its much easier this go. Perhaps because I really embrace it and and understand the well being and good out of this kind of this kind of sacrifice. It is worth it though, very much so.  I am looking forward to the days to come.

Workout – now if I could just get my cold licked and get my butt on the Tread Climber I will be happy! Still recovering but I am hoping for a better next week.  Oh and I am buying an ab glider…will let know how this works out.

Breakfast – SHAKE!! Vegan, berry – same as usual.  One day I am going to surprise you with a new kind of shake…stay tuned.

Lunch – Baked wing drums, 5 and 2 carrots.

Dinner – Salad with cider vinegar and oil, 2 ounces chicken breast and 1/4 cup smoked bacon. 1/4 cup hummus with sliced grilled squash, zucchini, red peppers and eggplant (2 sliced of each).

Continue to consume my water, tea intake.

Day 4 of Detox!!!

Workout – None…I am fighting a cold and have no work energy.  As soon as I kick this I will be back!!!  I am looking forward to working on building muscle.

Breakfast – Boiled egg, small piece of ham cooked in coconut oil, tiny piece of beef sausage as well. Small apple.

Lunch – Broccoli, cauliflower and carrots in a bag.  Ate whole bag, seasoned with sea salt, garlic powder, red pepper, onion powder. 5 baked wing drums. Handful of pecans, approx a serving size 1/4 cup.

Dinner – 2 wing drums and 2 carrot stalks.  I was not very hungry due to this cold but am trying to eat something anyway.

Day 3 of Detox!!!! I am feeling great….have a little bit of a headache but that is to be expected. Even though I have done this a bunch I still have to get my footing. I feel very light and its only day 3.  My water and green/herb/detox tea consumption is up which is partially why I feel lighter.

Workout – Zumba!!!  High energy so I was able to have a recovery shake.

Breakfast – Protein shake, vegan flax coconut milk, 6 strawberries, a few mixed berries, water.

Lunch – 2 cups collard greens, piece of turkey meat about 3 ounces and a small apple.

Dinner – tomato meat sauce with out the noodles about 1/2 to 3/4 cup.  Ideally this should have been on a romaine lettuce making lettuce wraps or or steamed cabbage.  I have some left and this is how I will eat the rest so I am sure to have all the important foods for proper nutrients.

Good day over all…was quite busy due to my detox class in the evening so I had just a little time to eat today.

Day 37

Day 2 of detox!! Today was a better day…it was not as busy so I was able to be sure I made time for my meals.

Workout – Kick boxing class…high energy.  If it was not so late I would have gotten a recovery meal because of the level of intensity but its too late for more food.

Breakfast – Vegan protein shake, all the ingredients I normally use but light on the flax seeds.  flax is considered a healthy fat so while I I need this I want to go easy this month on the fat I add to my diet since it is fat that I want to lose and muscle I want to gain. I am also cutting out the walnuts in my shake for a while unless I know it will be longer in between mean and I need something more to satiate me.

Lunch – Bowl of collard greens cooked in smoked turkey.  A little of the turkey meat for protein and meat sauce from spaghetti without the noodle.  *Be careful with tomato sauce, there can be a ton of sugar in it.*

Dinner – Vegan protein shake CHOCOLATE!!!  MMMMM, yum. Tablespoon of almond butter and some cacao nibs. Very chocolate-y.  Cacao nibs is considered my fat, I added organic psyllium husk for fiber. Used 1/4 cup of coconut milk or less as well which is also a fat.  This will ensure I am not hungry through the  night. Cup of berry detox tea. Paleogreens in water.

Workout – None….Tomorrow is a completely different story. I will sweat tomorrow.  Time t get this crap out of me and get ready for a better much cleaner lifestyle.

Breakfast – skipped.  Well I had an apple but that should be called lunch.  Made spaghetti for dinner, had a bite or 3 of that while cooking.

Lunch – Spaghetti, whole grain pasta, ground sirloin, spicy Italian sausage, fresh garlic, tomatoes, green peppers, onions.

Dinner – left over Mexican.  Just a little bit left over form yesterday. 2 final alcoholic beverages. Maybe 3…the night is still young!!

January 1st 2011!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Workout – none.  Gonna take these next 2 days off.  Monday morning I begin to get me fitness level back up to par.  I would not be surprised if I do not work out 7 days in a week.

Breakfast – Boiled egg, walnuts, honey crisp apple with sea salt.

Lunch – skipped

Dinner – Mexican food!!!  Chicken Quesadilla, beans, chips with queso, pico de gallo.  Last Mexican meal for the next 28 days or more.  Actually I may eat Mexican but my choices will be limited to all corn based, no wheat/flour tortilla, no cheese.  I can eat fajitas with corn wraps, no rice just pico and salsa and chips (a few).  I still must watch my caloric intake while on cleanse.

Champagne!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  We had our celebratory drinks Saturday instead of Friday on New Years Eve. 1 Margarita at the Mex spot.

Day 33

Fitness & Nutrition, Wellness, , , , , , ,

Workout – None!!  I wanted to run today since we reached a balmy 60+ degrees but time did not allow.  Work outs start back full speed next week. I am human like you 🙂 BUT I did by body analysis and its actually not that bad but there are some calculations I am not happy about so I will begin to work on improving my over all figures by stepping up my game.  Plus its a new year and we all have new year goals!

Breakfast – whey protein shake in strawberry flavor, scoop of flax, hemp milk, water.

Lunch – 4 baked wing drums, water.

Dinner – Red Lobster!!  Had the broiled seafood with wild rice, salad with oil and vinegar, broccoli and 1.5 biscuits. Oh and 1 top shelf margarita on the rocks with salt.  I am getting all the margaritas in that I want until Monday when the cleanse begins!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!  I am not going to log my spirit intake.  I am sure it will be too much to try to remember after the fact.  At least I’m honest. I am sure it will involve some tequila of some sort.
