broke down from my dinner of apple juice with ginger to eat a small plate of linda's chicken curry and rice, both from the curry source shop was tasty and not that unhealty, still I dreamt of bacon, crunchy slices smokie and juicy (i blame it on the ginger and spice).....
Diet:
Breakfast is one juiced grapefruit added to 2 liters of water.
Lunch is Irish Oats slow cooked, adding 2 oz of yogurt, 1/2 banana, few raisons and some fiber (omega 3/6/9 tablets and also a tab of folic acid)
Dinner is beans, grain, tofu, rice, greens, hummus, etc (good old hippie food)
Exersize: I get burned out kwik so I am easing in, riding bike (stationary)15 minutes in the morning and 10 min's at nite....6.5 miles.....hope to get to 30 morning and 15 nite (12 miles)....
Detox: I didnt think that it would be this hard, cranky yes but not the deep cold inside from lacking the fuel of pig fat and the gigantic waves of acid, reservoirs built strong for the 4000+ calorie daily desolve routine........
The Diet Begin's......
