After enjoying a handful of supplements, and a tablespoon of Olive Leaf I enjoyed my Quinoa Flakes!

It is not oatmeal, but it is a pretty close second, and I will take it!

In the Quinoa was chia seeds, cinnamon, blueberries and a few drops of stevia.

I am tracking my food on MFP, however I am not worried about my calorie counts right now.  I am just trying to make sure I am not hungry, and I don’t reach for something that I shouldn’t!

Today was a sad scale day… I was 200lbs even this morning I haven’t seen 2s for A LONG time, and it was a little depressing.  However I guess it will be a great reminder of another reason why I am doing this diet plan.  HEALTH!  200lbs on a 5’4.5″ frame is NOT healthy…

Snack: Raw Almond Coconut Macaroon

Lunch: Softboiled egg and tomato with a smear of cream cheese in a lettuce leaf wrap.

Snack: Another Almond Coconut Macaroon (not the Kale chips I had planned… I did make some but put in baggies for another time)

Supper: Black Bean Crema*, Diced Chicken, 1/4 of an Avocado, and fresh salsa served over a bed of spinach

*Black Bean Crema was a recipe I first saw on HEAB. She found the recipe here on Ashley’s Blog, the edible perspective. I changed it up a bit and subbed the half and half for a 1/4 cup of greek yogurt, and some water to thin it out to keep with my dietary restrictions.

Late Snack: bowl of berries

So that was my 1st day on Phase One… with a LOT of water!

Naturopath’s suggested water intake:

Bodyweight /2= Ounces  —I need to drink 100oz a day or…  

Ounces /33.8= Litres of water per day —approx 3L- DONE! Plus More!!

Have you ever given up any foods??  How did you fare?
