Ultimate Reset: Day 4
Day 4: I hate this. Why am I doing this?! Well...I am feeling pretty good. AHHH the internal mental games!
I promised to keep it real with you guys and today was a struggle! My headache returned, I was cranky, I had zero energy, and London was super needy and clingy. She has a bunch of teeth coming in at once and wants to be on the boob ALL day. Plus she started this thing where she screams in this glass-shattering pitch when I put her down...you know, the perfect thing for a headache!
I thought about quitting a few times today {mainly when I looked ahead at some of the upcoming meals that don't sound appetizing at all!}. But what's funny is that the thought of fried, greasy, or processed foods makes me feel gross! Even if someone put a donut in front of my mouth and told me I COULD have it, I wouldn't eat it. My digestion is already 100 times better and besides the lethargy, I FEEL great! When I focus on how I feel internally, I'm always more motivated to stay the course!
Plus, I lost THREE pounds already! So I'm going to stick with it!
What I ate today:
First thing: 24 oz water with Mineralize and Optimize supplements
30 minutes later: Breakfast
I woke up extra hungry so I added a serving of oatmeal to my breakfast. This wasn't on the plan, but I'm listening to my body and knew I needed something extra. After all, my goal isn't to lose weight. I want to maintain my milk supply and give my body a tune-up. I paired the oatmeal with a fresh fruit plate and yogurt with a few drops of pure maple syrup and dash of cinnamon.
2 hours later: Mineralize and Optimize supplements
30 minutes later: Lunch - Lentil Lime Salad and Vegetable Sushi Roll
{{Thoughts: Worst lunch ever. I'm still hating this lentil salad and the sushi roll was meh. Plain, dry sushi is the pits. Give me some of that spicy mayo, wasabi, and a ton of soy sauce and now we're talking!}}
2 hours later: Power Greens powder with water
30 minutes later: Snack - Vegan Chocolate Shakeology + banana + peanut butter
This is basically Heaven in a glass and the only thing I look forward to all day!
2 hours later: Mineralize, Optimize, Soothe supplements
30 minutes later: Dinner - Veggie stir fry with quinoa, tomato cucumber salad
{{Thoughts: the stir fry was a little bland, but the cucumber salad was UH-MAZING! }}
Supplement Info
I thought I'd start by sharing some info on Power Greens! A lot of people say it's awful, but I don't think it's bad at all. My 1 year old daughter drinks some with me and always asks for more! It has a mild earthy taste, but isn't overwhelming at all!
Here's the description from the Ultimate Reset:
Power Greens
The common diet of highly processed foods, sugary treats, soda pop, alcohol, and other items deemed "acidic" can negatively influence the body's optimum responses and balances, causing stress to the system. This means your body needs to work harder just to stay in its natural sweet spot (a state known as homeostasis), and maintain the stability of your internal environment.
The Ultimate Reset program is built around supporting the internal balances needed for optimum health and well-being.
Power Greens is a combination of six powerful greens, including kale, cucumber, celery, spinach, Matcha green tea, and chlorella, each known for providing their own unique benefits, and now brought together to form the perfect "green team."
The body is a complex organism. Balance is key. And so are greens. Keep the green team on your side.
Day 5 coming at you tomorrow! Let's hope it's better than today!
