Day 3

So day 3 has been a struggle for many reasons. To start off in the morning, and through most of the afternoon, I was feeling very weak and extremely fatigued, took a lot to get me going this morning. Slept in way later then planned. After I finally got up and did get my breakfast and take the dogs on a walk I felt a little better. My breakfast was a juice called peachy blues it was a good drink however it did not hold me over very long and I became hungry quickly, i snacked on some grapes. My lunch started my second problem for the day with my veggie drink. Again i tried to pick a juice that had a good variety of vegetables and one I had not tried yet. My lunch was called Delightful Green Juice, it didn't taste horrible but was hard to get down. I think it could have used less cabbage. It wasn't my favorite, but was better then the lunch the day before. I managed to finish it but it stayed with me for quiet a while. My stomach felt heavy and full for quiet a while after I finished it and made it feel a little unsettled. By supper though I was feeling better and had my typical salad with spinich/spring leaf mix, onions, tomatoes, avocados, and organic pinto beans. After supper the feeling sick started going away so I have been doing better this evening. The other hard thing today was grocery shopping. The first few days I went to the store it was fine but this evening there was a lot of temptations that looked very good and were hard to pass up. I just tried to stay focused on what I went to the store for. I make sure I have my list and now what I"m getting and go straight to produce section to prevent temptation. Well it was a rough one but successfully made it through day 3. For day 4 I will be making a lunch that is more of a mix of veggies and fruit so its not so hard going down.  Below are day 3 recipes.

Peachy Blues:
2 pears
1 peach
1 cup of blueberries

Delightful green juice
1 apple
1/2 cucumber
1/4 green cabbage
