In reverent fear of missing bad-for-you-foods I totally binged last night, raiding the fridge and the pantry of anything and everything I love including that deliciously dry burgundy wine... Even writing about it makes me salivate. Obviously I have a "problem"...
So here I sit, gassy and bloated and slightly hung over, looking at this box of Advocare stuff.
I can do this. I need to do this.
Spark is awesome! I am sold on this stuff. I had one yesterday because I was really struggling to stay motivated, and I felt AWAKE. Not heart racing jittery sort of awake but simply awake and ready to take on the day.
The fiber drink is alright if you love pulpy orange juice. I drink it fast so it's done. (WARNING: DRINK IT FAST! Otherwise it turns thick and has the consistency of that stuff that blows out of disposable diapers when they're too wet. That gelatinous goo... Blech!! So, drink it fast).
Breakfast: I'm going to have one of Blanch's eggs (my favorite sweet hen), a small portion of steel cut oats, and lemon mint water.
Lunch: Romaine lettuce, salmon, sliced raddish, sliced cucumber, sliced tomato, and a celery stick. Lemon mint water again. Have to go to the store, I'm missing my complex carb
Oh, and when the husband isn't working I will post a "before" photo so I stay motivated during this whole thing.
I love your honesty! I started a short juice cleanse to reset my addictions for sugar and caffeine and I did the same food orgy the night before in fear of desperately missing my "bad but delicious" foods.
