Super Smoothie-Doesn’t it look good? More greens to fruit ratio is the way to go!

Had a BBQ at work today, since I couldn’t really eat anything I just ate the pasta salad and watermelon that I made. (Forgot to take a picture)

Day 56: July 2nd 2013

Standard

Breakfast

1

My very first Wheatgrass shot! I have been studying and reading up on wheatgrass lately and I am convinced this is a wonder food, a super food and I am so glad to be on this bandwagon. Don’t love the taste so much, but I LOVE the way it makes me feel. Energized and awake and just plain good.

Toxic Health Knowledge: Day 1 – Aspartame

Standard

You know me and challenges! I love them!

I started an Instagram challenge yesterday, it’s not so much a challenge…I guess…it’s more of a platform of knowledge and I encourage feedback. Let’s get talking people! What you do not know could hurt you. Ask questions! When I first started on this clean eating/Vegan journey it was overwhelming (and still is) it is so difficult to read ingredients on the foods we buy and actually understand what we are purchasing. So I always found it easier to take it one chemical (ie additives, poison, toxins, etc.) at a time…

So, each day for the next 30 days or so I will do a daily post on Instagram(and probably here too) of the definition and side effects of the chemicals that are put in our food. One chemical each day.

It’s important that we understand what is in our foods, we really are what we eat and why wouldn’t you want to know what you are ingesting. This may get a little disheartening, but just know that there are options and you have a choice to eat clean and grad hold of your health.

Meat Day. I have not had chicken on my meat day in over 4 months. I am so weird-ed out by chicken I just cannot eat it anymore…but let me tell you…the Trader Joe’s all organic chicken is wonderful. It is amazing what whole, natural chicken tastes like. So yummy. I savored this meat day. Oh the sauce is my homemade buffalo sauce, Olive Oil, Garlic, Rice Vinegar, 21 Seasonings(from TJ’s) and of course Red Hot.

Not looking forward to work tomorrow.
