Day 2: detox cleanse
Posted on July 28, 2009
I had a 6 hour drive today and managed to avoid the lure of the fast food rest-stops along Routes 15 and 78 in rural PA. The key? I planned my meals ahead of time and really want to commit to this detox for 21 days. I've also put it in my head how disgusting fast food is -- even the salads -- lord knows where the salad comes from and the idea of injecting salt and oil into the grilled chicken is repulsive. (Good visuals when you start to cave...)
Here's my day 2 diet:
Breakfast at the hotel:
1 cup of plan oatmeal
1 green apple
herbal tea (apple-cinnamon)
Lunch (enjoying the warm breeze out on a bench on the National Mall)
1 cup of brown rice (kept cold in the cooler)
2 cups of fresh Jersey blueberries
bottle of pellegrino water
Snacks in the car
mix of pumpkin seeds, almonds and goji berries
1 fresh peach
more water mixed with a Shaklee energizing tea (yes, this has caffeine, but just a tad)
Dinner
Shaklee shake with rice milk
more blueberries
I felt pretty energized all day, didn't have any major cravings and no sign of a caffeine headache (the tea must have helped.) And slept like a baby.
