I am proud of myself because I ate 100 % raw all day yesterday. I have been struggling with this lately so I really used mind over matter yesterday. When I got really hungry I would have fruit or a green smoothie and I really ended up feeling very satisfied and full. So this is what I ate yesterday:
breakfast:
green smoothie (2 cups fresh squeezed oj, 2 bananas, strawberries and 1 cup of spinach)
snack:
2 mangos
lunch:
2 cucumbers
lots of muscadines
dinner:
2 avocados mixed with one mango
green smoothie (same recipe as for breakfast)
*I usually get hungry after I get off work and want to go to whole foods and buy food which first of all ends up being pretty expensive and is not necessary since I already have lots of food at home. So, yesterday after work I really wanted to go to whole foods but just changed my mind set and just started thinking about green smoothies and all the food I have at home. So, it worked. Yay.
I also wanted to mention a really neat "meant to be" moment. I went to a yoga class this past Sunday and the teacher was subbing for the usualy teacher. However, she (the sub) was one of my first yoga teachers that I had a few years back. So, she remembered me and I told her I was going to be getting trained at Yandara Yoga Institute. She then told me that her daughter was trained there and loved it. Then, she gave me her daughter's phone number so I could call her and ask her questions about it. I thought that was really cool, anyways, I called her daughter yesterday and she really did love the program and answered all of my questions. Well, that is all for this morning.
Congratulations on your 100% day! I love it when it happens without feeling like a struggle.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
ReplyDeleteHi April I have a question for you...DO you always use OJ instead of water for your smoothies? And when are you going to write a recipe book? :-)
ReplyDeleteI do use orange juice most of the time and actually never have used water but I think I'll try it some time. About the recipe book. I really want to write one...we will see. Right now I am so busy but I think when I get some free time I can begin to put one together. Thanks for the comment!
