Metamorphosis

Smoothie Fast - Day 3

Rate this Entry
I surprised myself and did this day easily. There was a single second when I glanced longingly at the Kale Chips but that passed without a second thought.

I'm having plenty of second thoughts about tomorrow. It's Easter and I'm doing a dinner for the family. My internal dialogue has been going along the lines of, "I should have something special because it is a special occasion" to "Those avocados are ripe and the arugula is not going to be fresh much longer". I would like to have a coconut papaya smoothie for brunch and a salad for dinner. That's why I haven't decided yet. If I make the decision today it will be to eat those tomorrow. Instead I will wait and see how I feel tomorrow.

Today's choices:

32 oz of Green Smoothie; pineapple, mango, strawberries, rainbow chard, kale, parsley

2 apples

16 oz Green Smoothie; leftover of the above smoothie refreshed by adding an orange and carrot top.

I went to my Nephew's baptism into the Catholic Church tonight. It started at 9:00pm and lasted until after midnight. I had no clue what to expect. I'm glad I went. It was a lovely experience. Especially after 3 days of smoothie fasting. Somehow I think that enhanced the experience. I felt good and I was at peace.

    HAPPY EASTER!!!!!!!!!!!!

    My goodness you are so so well. I think I'm eating too much fruit inbetween or so my head says that. I went through the same dilemna about today but, I'm going to take my green smoothies with me and some fruit or a fruit salad.

    Love and Blessings today!

    Happy Easter. Good job on passing on the kale chips- I could eat trays of them when I make them. Your smoothies sound really good too:)
