The Cleanse, Day 7
Aaahhh the difference a good night’s sleep makes! Earplugs in and I was dead to the world. I woke up with lots of energy and feeling great. Since we had scheduled a Mother’s Day brunch with my in-laws, I had a Lara bar for breakfast.
Brunch was a challenge. Overall, I did well on staying on the Cleanse, except for one egg Benedict and a little smoked salmon. Oh, and 2 bites of coconut cake my husband had. THAT was a strange sensation – the sugar overloaded my taste buds and my mouth felt funny. I didn’t really feel deprived (maybe because I cheated!). Most times when I consider eating something off the Cleanse, I remember how great I feel and I don’t want that to change.
After 4 hours working in the yard this afternoon after my in-laws left, I was starved! For dinner I ate a small salad and an Amy’s organic frozen dinner – Santa Fe Enchilada. Amy’s products are frequently gluten-free and taste great.
