Ever since we moved here I have had a hundred and one excuses, but it's ending now. After a particularly indulging winter holiday, I felt I needed to start with something drastic, so I have for the first time in my life, been doing a juice detox.
For the last three days, I have only had a green juice (freshly pressed, with broccoli, ginger, lemon, spinach and cucumber) for breakfast, snacked on raw broccoli during the day, had a black coffee or two throughout the day; and a palm sized piece of oven baked white fish in the evenings. I was supposed to do these green vegetable based protein shakes as well, but they tasted so incredibly yuk that there was no way. I've had an egg white a day instead.
The result? - 2 kg.
A good start. Now for a paleo based diet for the next few weeks, to see if I can get rid of my sugar addiction, and establish some healthier eating habits. Lately it's been way too much of too much, to say the least.
Sunday Pia and I are starting an exercise challenge, and curiously enough I'm really looking forward to it. Not sure I'll be just as cocky come Sunday afternoon when the DOMS set in..!
Oh god, pass on some of your inspiration will ya...I need to do the same me thinks!
