My body has gone through part of a cleansing...I know there is a deeper cleanse underway. With that cleanse I have lost 10lbs since Christmas. The biggest change I think would be how I feel...and my energy level. WOW!
So...I thought, since I have people asking, I would share with you what I am eating. I will do this as I go...(this is me trying to commit to sitting down and blogging..haha)
First off, I should direct you to what I am reading. I have been reading anything I can get my hands on by David Wolfe. I do not agree with some of his philosophies, but he has good science to back up his nutrition information. I am also reading some older information from Hallelujah Acres. I find nutrition books to be like parenting books... you take the good and what works for you, and toss what is either inapplicable or something that you fundamentally disagree with.

Ok... Breakfast today:
I cooked some oat groats (steel cut oats, scottish oats...whatever)
added some soaked and barely sprouted buckwheat goats (when its soaked its very soft)
maple syrup to sweeten
Garden of Life (my favorite brand of supplements) Superseed (beyond fiber)
Goji Berries
Raisins
Maca (great for hormone balancing and ok for breastfeeding moms)
Coconut butter (not only for the healthy fat that encourages a healthy metabolism but it also helps my body take in more nutrients from the Superseed (chia and flax seeds among other things)
Walnuts
Pecans
I think thats it. I know it sounds like a lot of work, but though the years of learning to eat better these are all things I have readily available in my kitchen, so I literally threw it all in a bowl, stirred it up...and here I sit..eating something wonderfully good for me...and tasty too!
If you dare to give this a try... let me know what you think!
