I spent the entire day inside. I have been inbetween the kitchen and the closets. I did alot of uncooking and nibbling. I never really ate a meal persay because, I've been nibbling on all my creations. I have to stay away from the Dehydrator or there won't be any "Crusty Califlower" left for when it's actually all the way dry. Hahaha! It's so Yummy! :)

I got started on the closets and have alot more to go. I'm taking it slow. Plus, Hubby's back has been hurting really bad and I need him to put up the shelves. So, I'll just have to work with what I got and go through and get rid of stuff in the meantime.

I didn't work out cuz, I felt nauseous this morning. I have had a humming in my ears for a week now and sometimes sounds like I'm underwater and feeling kinda weak. I worked out yesterday I got dizzy and stayed dizzy for several hours afterwards. So, I decided to take it easy today.

As a result however, and with all the uncooking I've been nibbling more then maybe I wanted too. I have no idea how much I ate except for the 2 tiny apples, 1 regular apple, 1 banana, about 4 celery stalks, 1 handful of spinach, and a handful of my cinnamon almonds. Then nibbling on the crusty califlower - yum!, some pineapple, grapes, mango, and test tasting and nibbling. Now, I just took the carrot pulp, orange pulp, almond pulp, and added agave, cinnamon, nutmeg, coconut shreds and we'll see what that turn out like. The Dehydrator is full so, I'll throw it in the fridge and put in tomorrow.

I feel kinda full ........ I hope I didn't over do it.

    Your making amazing progress with your diet and the closets. So ambitious! Great idea to get the Spring cleaning done early, then you can be outdoors when it finally starts warming up. It will feel great to out there training your babies again in the sunshine.

    I wonder what the dizzyness is from? Coule be some detox your going through. Maybe your fighting off the deadly winter virus that is knocking everybody down, at least around here. Either way, do take care.

    My hubby has a bad back, too. It flares up when he works too hard or picks up something too heavy. I hope your dh gets better soon so he can put up those shelves.

    Have another good day tomorrow. :)

    Hey Knitster. It's funny cuz, I started out sicky and have been non-stop all day. It's 11pm and just finished making Hubby Fresh Almond milk... :) he liked it! :) And I took that carrot pulp concotion and looked a carrot cake recipe and put in more ingredients like dates, raisins, flax. So, I'm gonna make carrot cake tomorrow. The sunflower seeds came out good. I soaked and put salt, cumin, chili powder, cilantro, and parsley on them Yum!

    I think the dizziness yesterday was I am fighting off a bug. Hubby is feeling sick too. He must have the same back as your hubby. He stacked hay for me a few days back and I think he hurt himself.

    oh my gosh, are we connected or what? yesterday when I got home from work I put together a pear, carrot, raisins and sprinkled cinnamon and cloves on top. It totally made me want some carrot cake. LOL! I was going to search posts today for recipes. Do you have a good one?

    sorry you're not feeling well. are you dehydrated? sometimes when I don't want to workout, but I still want to get some toxins out, I like to take a nice hot bath. That's actually what I did yesterday afternoon, it felt so nice.

    Way to go on no coffee! I see you're back under 130 today - woo hoo :)

    I can send you the recipe I have for "Carrot Cake". I just put the cake in the Dehydrator this morning. I decided to make mini loaves. I'll let ya know how it turns out. Keep in mind though I didn't follow the recipe exact because, I decided to make it after I had put things together so, the measurements were more like guesstaments. hehehe!

    I am diffently fighting a bug and have been for a week. So, I don't wanna push myself. I did take a bath the other nite and it was so nice. I think I'll do that tonite too. :) However, I am feeling a tad better this morning so, I'm considering a light workout. This is when I should put my yoga dvd's in, huh?

    YES! I'm going down. I guess that's what not drinking Coffee or eating SAD or Sugar will do for ya, huh?
