The Food
Meal 1: scrambled egg with sautéed onions, mushrooms, and tomatoes
Meal 2: quinoa, tomatoes, steamed kale, black beans, garbanzo beans
Meal 3: 1/2 avocado, tomatoes, lime juice, salt
Meal 4: roasted chicken, carrots, onions
Throughout the day: almonds and cashews
Best tasting: close one but the roast chicken always wins!
Most surprising: kale. I've never had it but it's SO tasty. Gonna find new ways to incorporate it this week.
Saving grace: cashews. Feels/tastes unhealthy which was welcomed today!
Biggest challenge: missing milk and juice. I don't think milk in and if itself is bad for you but it does contain a lot of naturally-occurring sugars so it's out for now. I am going to limit myself to one unsweetened tea a day. It kind of sickening how much sugar I must have been consuming. Yikes!! Anytime I struggle I'll think abut that.
More tomorrow...

Such a hard change, but you are right a good change. I have just finished reading and starting to apply "Body Confidence" by Mark MacDonald. I highly recommend it for after your cleanse. The food plan (not diet) is all about maintiaing a stable blood sugar through the whole day. The plan is so easy and logical. The book is written in plain english. Love you.
Okay, you're inspiring me! I have major sugar addictions. And as a result battle hypoglycemia. I keep telling myself that I'm going to get it under control.
