Today I feel much better than I felt yesterday. I have had a bit of what I would call Fibromyalgia pain that I know it is from inflamation but it is not severe. My weight did not change but from what I understand people do not generally lose weight on the whole food detox.

I have decided that I probably will not do the 5 days of smoothies after having one yesterday.  I am much more of a juice person so after this 5 days I will go right to juicing only.

I also realized that the reason I was not hungry for lunch yesterday was because I ate too much for breakfast.  So today I cut the soaked oats to 1/4 of the recipe and felt much better.

I said on day 1 I was not going to stress over the little things and here is an example.  I got everything ready for juicing this morning and forgot to juice my lemon first for the lemon water and just juiced everything.  That being said I didn’t have my lemon water this morning.

I have been also doing a detox bath each night which is suggested in the detox.  I use a cup of epsom salt and try to soak for 30 minutes.  You can also add baking soda and/or some powdered ginger which I have done.  It will make you sweat.

Day 3

• Breakfast: 1/4 recipe of soaked grains with a handfull of soaked walnuts and1/2 tsp of honey
• 1 glass of juice – 3 carrots, 1 lemon, 1/4 of small beet, handfull of lettuce, 1 apple, 1/3 slice pineapple, small piece of ginger
• Lunch: Kids plate, carrots and broccoli at Cracker Barrel with water
• Snack: Juiced 1 orange, 1/2 lemon and grapefruit,  I don’t like grapefruit but tried it.  Still don’t like it but I could change it to 1/4 grapefruit.  It did fill me up.
• Tsp almond butter
• Blue Corn Chips and hummus
• Dinner: baked cauliflower, onions and small peppers (red, yellow and orange).  The onion was from my garden and it was sweet as were the peppers.  Maybe my taste buds are changing?
• Juice – 1/2 pear, 1 apple, 1/4 piece of pineapple and 1/4 mango, boy was it good.
• Couple of raw cashews and they were good!  I purchased these from my local health food store.  I did not soak these.
