Day 3/4

Day 3-
Since I started this process, I have slept through the night, except for the frequent peeing trips, but quickly falling back to sleep! This is not the norm for me, so I am enjoying my beauty rest.  I woke experiencing some joint pain on day 3 and overall body aches. I also was craving a Mimosa or a Bloody Mary or both around 2 pm. Instead, I upped the water intake and decided that I needed some movement. I went on a walk and then cleaned my apartment which lead to more sweating and exercise. Before I knew it, it was 6 pm and I felt great. I had fun with Kale last night! I never thought I would say that....
I made crispy kale (oven at 350 for 10-12 min). I made 2 batches (olive oil+ sea salt+ pepper & Chili pepper+avocado oil) YUMMO!
Kale & Leek soup:

• 3 Leeks
• Mushrooms
• Kale
• Veggie stock
• Herbs de Provance
• Sea Salt/pepper

Cook leeks with spices in stock until soft (20 min), then add mushrooms for 10 min. Add  kale. Simmer for another 10 min. Volia! 
It was a welcoming change to the fresh salads and raw veggies. Apparently, I crave a hot meal every night and that is OK!!

Day 4- Day off! No pressure to get out of bed except to take my supplements on time. I felt well rested and decided to get up and  have a morning meditation. I finally mastered the shake today. I was adding too much water. I like a thick shake, I've decided. Today, I used some frozen and fresh berries (pic above).
Honestly, I'm not used to waking feeling so great on a Sunday...I mean Saturday night is usually wine night! Sundays are my lazy days aka hangover days. Over all, I am proud of myself for sticking with it and getting through the weekend.  I feel like it can only get better from here. Food is one of my favorite things and I am learning so much about making things taste good that are good for you! I meal prepped like crazy today and have things ready for 3 days. That was fun with my new tool (pic below). Stay tuned for more recipes! For those of you on the 21- day purification, keep truckin! You got this!!
