Cleanse Day 1 - Complete

Day 1 of the all fruit/vegetable cleanse was a success. Honestly it wasn't even all that hard (probably because I still had lots of Superbowl food in my stomach)... just took a lot of time to wash/cut/prep everything. Here was last night's dinner...

Kale Salad, Asparagus, Brussel Sprouts, Butternut Squash 

Andy did a great job sticking to it too, although he did have some wine after dinner. He claimed it's made from grapes so it fit the rules, but something tells me alcohol doesn't really belong in a cleanse. ;-)

Before bed I did a little yoga and my PT exercises. All in all, a good day.

I woke up this morning feeling a lot lighter (and in fact, I lost 2.6 pounds) and more "peppy," although as I was heading to work I also found myself feeling extra irritated and stupid things - like when I had to stop at a red light and my lunch bag fell over and my pear rolled out. Not a big deal, but I was NOT happy about it. I guess I shouldn't be surprised if I'm a little on edge.... but I am making an effort to try to be nice to people, even if I don't completely feel like it.

Job #2 tonight. Check in tomorrow to see how things go for Cleanse Day 2.
