Day 10 - Still Alive

OK...I have to admit that if I hadn't committed to this month and told everyone about it, I sooooooo would have quit Saturday night.  My parents took the kids overnight and we usually indulge by going out to eat and having some drinks.   I was really missing creamy food made with cheese!!  My awesome husband let me whine A LOT and then we went to dinner at Mother's Cafe.  We has a great time and their salad with cashew tamari dressing is amazing!

It is clear how strongly I associate certain food with "fun."  And I have certain foods I go to when I am stressed.  Since this cleanse has eliminated all of those foods, I find myself substituting other food in its place.  The rest of this month seems like a good time to evaluate some of these habits since removing the food results in the same outcome.

After all this business I am back to feeling good about this month.  I am sure there will be more emotional moments before it is all over.

We made some amazing food again this week...click on the tab up top for recipes.

Southwest Coleslaw- this is amazing, no mayo!
 

Lemony Spiced Chickpeas with Spinach


Faux Tuna that is good for sandwiches or wraps.
