What I have decided to do this week is to only eat fruit and vegetables to clean out my system of all the toxins and hoping it will help replenish my body and get used to not eating any meat...this is what i am hoping it will do *keeping fingers crossed.
I also picked up some whole wheat bread and will be starting B12 vitamins. For snacks i picked up assortments of nuts and pumpkin seeds. I also read the benefits of adding lemon to water, so i picked up some fresh lemons too! I have posted a internet link regarding the benefits of lemons added to water below this post.
I have been discussing my findings with my neighbor, she too used to be a vegatarian but went back to eating meat a few years ago. She was listening to what I had to say about the book and said. "Laurie, let's do this together"
Off we went to the fruit market (asian grocery store) they have a great selection of exotic fruits and at great prices!!
Came home and tried my friends juicer...my findings...juicer machines take alot of fruit to make 1 glass of juice!! I may just do that once in a while as I found 1 glass of juice cost approximately $4-5 and the glass was small.
I may stick with my smoothie machine as I can add frozen yogurt and an assortment of fruits, add in some flax seeds and that will be a refreshing drink.
Tommorrow i am leaving for a girls cottage get away...have my bags of fruit/vegies ready and will be a true test of smelling the bbq cooking up steaks, chicken and smelling bacon in the morning, but i am determined to keep my fruit/vegie regiment till next Wednesday then will try tofu, my next experiment!!
Will be back in a few days to journal how my weekend went :)
