It’s day six and all is well. I skipped the past 2 days of “logging” for 2 reasons:
- On day 4, I simply forgot
- On day 5, I chose to watch a movie
So, it wasn’t at all because I ate something I shouldn’t have or anything like that!! Which reminds me, I didn’t even tell you what I am restricting!!! So here it is:
RESTRICTED FOODS/DRINKS
- Wheat
- Dairy
- Yeast
- Alcohol
- Caffeine
- Red Meat
- Pork
- Sulphites
Along with this list, I am also “limiting” processed foods ( must read all labels) and sugar. People often ask me, “What DO you eat?”
Hence, this blog.
I want to show people that there are plenty of food choices available. Yes, you will have to work harder at making your meals and even pre-plan but the results are staggering. I already feel so much better. I have no feelings of deprivation or starvation. I even ate dinner at a restaurant tonight so let’s start with that and work backwards to breakfast.
Dinner
- 3 chicken satay sticks (dairy-free)
- White rice
- Green salad
- Water
This was a perfect wheat and dairy free meal. One you could make at home too.
Afternoon Snack
- Banana and berry smoothie with LSA and rice milk
- Decaf soy coffee
Lunch
- Whole brown rice cakes with peanut butter
- 8 fresh pea pods
- 4 pieces of crystallised ginger
- water
Morning Snack
- 1 apricot
- 1 nectarine
- 1 plum
- water
Breakfast
- Plain Oatmeal with seeds
- 1/2 cup fresh boysenberries (YUM)
- Decaf coffee with rice milk
Breakfast was on the run as I slept in today. I had to work too and had no issues with energy and this diet. As you can see, I am eating plenty.
Physically: I feel great!! No issues, but I need to keep up my water intake. I struggle with this but I know it’s important.
Now, I going to have a spiced Rooibos tea with rice milk before bed. Life is good.
