Fresh Start - Day... Um. What day is this?!

It's been a rather crazy week already - I can't believe it's already Wednesday! 

I've continued making choices to eat cleansing, nourishing foods. I have however, eaten a few meals with the family. And enjoyed them, because even for them, I kept the meals real and nutrient dense. 

I am noticing a difference in how my taste buds are reacting. 

Yesterday I bought a small cup of coffee and two chocolate chip cookies. 

I couldn't finish either. They just didn't taste good to me. I'm grateful for the change in the taste buds. I was encouraged to wait and eat my lunch at home - a spinach, grated carrot, green onion and smoked tempeh wrap. Super tasty. 

As I begin to wind down these two weeks of my liver cleanse, I am encouraged that the whole package approach seems to have really paid off. 

By beginning first with getting enough rest, I was able to approach my food choices with clear thinking. By adding in exercise every day, I've found new energy and encouragement to make choices that don't undo the work I'm doing. And the new tastebuds make up for those moments when the 'old' way calls my name! 

I don't have a recipe for you today, just an encouragement to get one large dark green salad with vegetarian-based protein into you today. Your body will say thank you!
