Last weekend, I added in some brown rice to the mix and all of a sudden, I kind of forgot I was altering my diet at all. This is a mixed blessing, because it was nice to note that I didn't particularly miss processed foods or dairy. But on the other hand, I felt a little let down that I wasn't really undertaking a challenge anymore. Does that make any sense? I guess I was looking for more drama. If I'm looking for drama maybe the Master Cleanse is the way to go. <br /><br />Last night L. came home wanting to order food, but then remarked: "Oh, right, you're not eating food." Which is completely untrue. I have been eating well and plentifully (maybe a little too plentifully, truth be told) and the variety of foods I can eat is great. So we ordered some Asian and I had veggies with brown rice. Normal, fun. But, oh the sauce. I wasn't so careful about the sauce and, man alive! my body did not like that sauce. <br /><br />My stomach rebelled against the sauce in a pretty major way. So, I'll have to be extra careful about what I'm putting into my body in the coming days. <br /><br />Someone asked me how long I was planning on doing this, and I told them about the ten-day plan, but added: I may just do it until I don't.<br /><br />Meaning, maybe this is the way to go for me. I feel much more energy (no caffeine), and I don't crash in the afternoons. Why add foods that will only make me feel heavy and sluggish? <br /><br />I'll ask that question to myself again as I'm staring a Mystic Pizza in the face this weekend.theheyladynoreply@blogger.com
