7 Day Cleanse - Day Three

Day Three
"A mixture of fruits and vegetables of your choice. Any amount, any quantity. No bananas yet. No potatoes today."

Nothing too exciting to report from this day.  Mainly because I spent the whole day being excited for day four (soup, bananas, milk!!!)  I am still feeling really energized and I even thought to myself something incredibly euphoric like, 'this is the best week everrrr!!'  If eating this way makes me happy, then I don't know why I would ever stop!


I am most surprised at how satisfied I am after a meal of just fruits and veggies.  This really makes me think about why I include carbs in almost every meal.  Obviously, I don't think this is something I could do day-in, day-out, but I know I can definitely start to rely less on carbs.  Even though they are the most delicious part of the food pyramid EVA.


Still drinking coffee black.  I am able to drink more than one cup of coffee now that is isn't bogged down with the usual sweet creamers I usually dump in there.


Last night, I had some mashed cauliflower and I vowed to use those more often.  They look exactly like mashed potatoes, and so I wonder who I can trick into eating them because of this?  With the right herbs and spray butter, they taste good too, so I think this new wonder is here to stay.  


I also made my soup for day four before I went to bed.  I took a picture I was so excited (will post it tomorrow!).  I think I even did a soup dance as I walked away from the simmering pot.  Cauliflower. Kale. Green beans. Asparagus. Mushrooms. Tomatoes. Corn. I will devour the entire pot, I am sure of it.


Tomorrow, Day Four...pretty sure this day is going to be my fave!!
