I may have slept for 8hrs 19 mins but the 6x I was restless
well those were probably the times I was having some crazy dreams about food.
Yes I dreamed about food. Steak, Potatoes, Triple layer chocolate cake and a
big glass of milk! Totally crazy!
Today was very easy for me to get up. It seems that the 8
hours of sleep totally agreed with me.
Breakfast: I wasn’t so sure about breakfast. Miso Soup,
Chickpeas and a slice of avocado. The Chickpeas and Avocado I could do again
but the Miso Soup I can so do without. I can not get it to taste like what I am
used to from the local Sushi Places.
By lunch I was getting hungry and looking forward to my
lunch date with one of my BFFs and then my red beans and rice when I got back.
Now how can you eat out on the Reset? Well it isn’t easy and I have only found
1 or 2 places that you can. We go to Ruby Tuesday’s because it is right down
the road. There I can get a salad bar and have my microgreen salad with some
grilled veggies on it because some of that stuff and still can’t eat raw though
it is slowly getting to me. I have now had cucumbers 2 times. You must
understand. The only way I eat cucumbers is as pickles. Well I had a nice lunch
with my friend and headed back to work looking forward to my red beans and rice
but I was half full or more. I measure everything like the reset said and man
it seems like a ton of food!! After eating my red beans and rice I really could
have curled up in my chair at work and taken a nap.
Today I have been craving Chocolate and a Cup of Coffee with
some Pumpkin Spice creamer. I resisted but ended up have a cup of Green tea
with Jasmine. The next thing I knew it was time for that nastly little green
supplement of stuff. Even after 9 days it still doesn’t not taste better
For Snack I had plan greek yogurt with cinnamon, honey,
blueberries and strawberries. Now that is some good stuff. I am really looking
forward to dinner tonight.
Well I arrived home to find my grandmother was looking for
something to cook the family. I was going to offer to make enough sweet potato
and red pepper bisque for everyone but she made the one thing that made me
almost have to leave the kitchen, spaghetti! Let me just say that while being
on the reset for 9 days now I have learned a few things about myself. 1) When I cook I taste test a lot. I may know
my portions but from tasting I probably had 1.5 times the amount I should have
of something. 2) When I am cooking if there is a bag of chips or cookies open I
tend to reach for them if I am cooking something you can’t taste along the way.
3) Spaghetti noodles sitting in front of me are just a bad thing. Grab you a
fork and pull you out a few and eat while you are waiting on the sauce to get
ready. I didn’t have any spaghetti but you can sure as bet as soon as everyone
had their plate fixed I put all the leftovers up. Out of site and out of mind.
Dinner: Well I started getting everything ready for the soup
and right before I put it in the blender I started to think I was missing
something. My Asparagus! I totally forgot to put it on to cook. No problem
though. A Little bit of Olive oil, almonds and onions and they started cooking
just nicely. Dinner was just great. I loved the soup and I am looking forward
to having it for lunch tomorrow. However I followed the recipe and doubled it
but man on man does it seem like a lot of soup? It made a really big bowl of
it.
Today I am still really achy. The detox supplement I was so
worried about really isn’t that bad but my whole body aches like the flu. I
can’t say it is like I exercised because that is a deeper pain. Time for a nice
warm Epson salt bubble bath.. Now where is the Wine? It is a fruit right?
