We were able to go about our days and were totally back to normal by Sunday. This was great, but it also means no more excuses.
Since we returned from vacation my eating has been horrible, so here is the chain reaction.
Eating like crap, so no energy to do anything, no energy to cook and no energy to juice, just want to sleep. Not really but you get the picture. Basically I went to the food store and bought Naked Juice because I was too lazy to juice myself, which means I am not getting what I need nutrient wise so I am tired. (really I don't feel like washing the juicer). Now by normal standards I am still in good shape, but by my usual diet not so much.
So here is the plan:
Back to juicing every morning and back to cooking.
Today's juice:
Carrot, Apple, Ginger
Spinach, Apple, Celery, Cucumber and Ginger
Other Breakfast options:
Gluten Free Oatmeal, cooked plain and add fruit, berries are especially yummy with it.
Fruit and Nuts
Eggs (if you eat them) and fruit/veggies
Plain Greek Yogurt (again Vegetarian not vegan) and fruit, especially good with frozen berries.
GF Toast with avocado and flax oil or natural Nut Butter. Sprouted grain bread, like Ezekiel bread is a good choice.
Smoothie, any kind you like and add some greens. I really like to add Coconut water to my smoothies, it gets me the hydration I need along with the magnesium and potassium and all the other yummy stuff.
Dinner, I like to mix it up sometimes and have beans and veggies for breakfast, or greens and legumes. So if your feeling it have last nights left overs for breakfast.
Give it a try and see if a cleaner breakfast, free of added sugar will give you a new outlook on the day.
While your at it, try a little desk yoga, or just pop right out of your chair and rock a little down dog, or up dog, whatever your feeling. And watch out for some yoga videos soon to add to your practice.
Eat well, enjoy the day and Namaste.
