Have I mentioned I am just ready for this to be done?  Don’t ge me wrong, I feel really good and I am REALLY glad I am doing this but I really don’t think this is the way I want to live for ever and ever.
I’m NOT saying I want a cheeseburger and cookie, I just don’t watn to be so strict.

I think I’m most curious to see how my body reacts to the foods that I was used to eating. I wouldn’t call it a “craving” so much as I just “want” certain foods – mostly bread. I’m glad I began eating “like a man” for this week as I need more calories with my amount of activity. I’m also looking forward to working out but unfortunately with upcoming travel I wont be sticking to a program.

Before the reset I actually ate pretty healthy, granted when we were traveling it wasn’t perfect so this reset has been GREAT to start me, and my kitchen off on a super clean foot :)

I have been giving a lot of thought as to how I want to come out of this. There is a transition period, of another 3 weeks actually, where you slowly add things back in. I already know I will be transitioning much faster as I will be traveling a week after the reset is done and we have a friend in town mid week. I kind of wish I had two weeks between finishing reset and traveling.

I imagine I’ll be “tasting” foods, not eating an entire meal of fish, dairy, grains, cookies etc. But if Chris is eating something I want to appreciate the taste of I’ll try it. I’m looking forward to trying some recipes from Forks Over Knives and Eat, Taste, Heal which are both “new to me cookbooks”. I love that a lot of the Reset meals are similar to the meals in the cookbooks :)

Anyway… Thanks for reading my journey. It’s not over yet!

Here was my breakfast today. Since I didn’t prep the night before I ended up blending my frozen cherries and peaches with a bit of water – it was really good!

Breakfast - sorbet ;)

Lunch was really good. I enjoyed this salad.

Spinach salad with quinoa

I totally forgot to eat my afternoon snack. That never happens to me. I was really hungry for dinner and totally forgot to take a picture! I enjoyed the tempeh better this time than I did the first part of the reset.

Prep for day 20 :)
Breakfast fruit plate is ready
Lunch – switched it to another spinach salad
Dinner – No need to prep, can make it all fresh.
