Week 16

How do I feel? I've had two off days, when I've felt quite back. I had to increase my Diclectin dosage for those days. At first I thought maybe it had something to do with my switching my vitamins to a different brand and form, but that surely that wasn't the case. I had a good look at what I was eating and I'm 99% sure that, that was the cause! It wasn't hard to figure out what I was doing wrong.

What did I eat? I am emberrassed to admit this but, I had ice coffee from Mc Cafe two days in a row and twice!! Also, I did something even more stupid. I purchased and Arizona iced tea (we all know that's full of sugar!!!!) and I did that two days in a row as well. On top of this, since I thought I was feeling a lot better, and I was craving for a decaf hazelnut flavoured coffee... oh you guessed it! I am so dumb.

Well no wonder my body went a bit loopy and was like "hey!! what's going on?!" I felt so awful, I could hardly get out of bed.

There is something I didn't do for a few days, which was juicing. I guess, having S away for a few days put me on survival mode for a second, and honestly I just forgot to. Howeverm I put it to the test, and juiced today and I INSTANTLY felt my nausea had subside and, I have not even taken Diclectin today! I am now, again, a true believer in juicing my vegetables. If you cannot consume them in large quantities, then juice them!!! 

I am back to "normal" :)

Here are my top #5 snack ideas for in between meals

  • Greek Yogurt with berries, nuts and stevia. I sometimes substitute almonds to a handful of oats or 1T hemp hearts.
  • Protein smoothie. Basicall any kind of vegetable and fruit, yogurt based smoothie with a scoop of hemp protein or whey protein.
  • Hummus and Peppers. I love red pepper boats filled with hummus. It's pretty much the only way I eat red peppers.
  • Apples and nut butter. I love organic peanut butter. I know almond butter is better for you, but peanut butter tastes best!
  • Cheese and grapes.
