Sorry I haven't been updating daily, a lot has been going on.
I made a delicious pizza made with a zucchini crust. It didn't stick together very well but that's probably because I didn't use eggs but it was still wonderful.
I'll do my best to post regularly but please be patient.
That's all for now :)
Day 3
I've had to change my diet a bit and add in non blended foods. But I'm still feeling really great and I just keep getting better.
Wish me luck :)
Day 2 is a success as well!
When I woke up this morning I noticed that my skin was clearer and wasn't blochy. I wasn't so tired and woke more alert. Ah, it feels so good! ^_^
I also started bowflex today and will be doing that twice a week as well as trying to walk a mile each day. As soon as I get a new bike seat I'll be adding that to my exercise routine.
On a side note I've noticed that I have needed the silken tofu in each smoothie in order to keep me from becoming shaky. Also getting in my daily amount of coconut oil is easier than expected which means no more excuses! :)
Wish me luck!
Day one has been a success!
I do have to admit that walking up and drinking a bitter green smoothie was not as nice as bacon and eggs, I will have to create some better recipes.
Later on in the day I found myself to be really shaky so I added some silken tofu to my smoothie and that solved it and made the smoothie nice and creamy! :)
With today's challenges I find it hard to believe that I already feel so much better. I have more energy and feel more alert and I just feel all around great, such a big change in just one day! Hopefully day 2 will be a bit easier though...
Wish me luck! ^_^
Like many, I have struggled with my weight since I was a kid, I always felt tired and sick. A few years ago, I discovered I had celiac disease along with some other food allergies and needed to be on a restricted diet. So with great sadness I cut out all of the allergens from my diet, lost 14 pounds and felt wonderful! But I am just not satisfied, I want to be %100 healthy! So I decided to share my struggles and knowledge that I gain in this blog so that others know that they are not alone in the fight to be healthy.
One benefit of being restricted with my diet is that I have developed a passionate interest in health and fitness, this fall I will taking that passion to the next level by starting my freshman year of college majoring in biochemistry and nutrition. And I refuse to gain the freshman 15!
I have given myself a deadline of May 3rd which gives me 237 days (hence the blog name ^_^) starting tomorrow. For the first few days (as long as possible) I will only be eating green smoothies just to try and cleanse my body a little bit. Sodas, desserts, sugared drinks, bad carbs, processed foods, meat and dairy will all be cut out of my diet. At various periods I will slowly add back white lean meats and fish, but no red meat!
Wish me luck!
