I just can’t!!!

It’s Day One—-no more sugar once again! Not processed, to be sure, but no cane either, or any of the myriad of artificial sweeteners out there. Have you ever heard of Rita’s?
It is only the BEST dessert ever (well, besides those cream stuffed, chocolate dipped bear claws, I mean WHO came up with such decadence?!?!)!!! So, Rita’s—-oh my. They make amazing Gelatis—our fav made with frozen vanilla custard, & black cherry Italian Ice…😋😋😋 Bad, bad, just B.A.D. for someone (me) who is addicted to anything at all, truly—-no exaggeration in the least. My husband’s & my weakness. A franchise just opened only two friggin miles from our front door (3/1). Bleh.

So, today is Day One (though jumped to the package of Day 2 because I failed at continuing past Day One last time I tried this feat a couple of weeks ago) of Prolon 5 Day Fast mimicking diet. Basically a keto type very low calorie diet with supplements. It mimics a full fast. I like to utilize this program to help me detox from sugar & other crap. It doesn’t require a lot of stress or planning so I find it very helpful—simply follow instructions. When I’m done I’ll continue no sugar & return to my low processed WFPB diet. Honestly, I am grateful to admit that the appeal is so much less than it has been in the past…whew! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 That’s a win!

What a gift to have a “hankering” & to be able to purchase all that is needed to make such a delicious treat—-blending my own oat flour in a blender, moving about in the homey kitchen, to alas, bake in our oven. 🙏🏻

Who would have thought?! WFPB Apple muffins sweetened with maple syrup. Healthy to boot. Full of superfoods, protein, and yumminess!! I added vegan protein powder, & chick pea/ & greens Go figure. Super healthy treat.

What a productive day all around! I’m so very grateful—-Resolution on some problem child claims I’ve been working on…an early morning workout!…working with my new coach, Anne! 🙌🏻👏🏻 Speed walking…lol. I feel like a total dork doing it though. Allllll the sweet babies—-I adore our farm of bullies, Prolon fast day one!, not living to eat today, but rather eating to live! I have been on a food bender, emotionally eating, no fun. Not today Satan‼️

My favorite picture from today!! Joyous in the ability to move my body!!! Celebrating that today!!! When you celebrate your gratitude…feel it in your heart center as an energy & visualize that extending out into the world!!!!!!

Who’s running today?!?!? You are sooooooooooo #BADBUTT! You’ve got this!!!!

I am with everyone in spirit! Sending so much positive energy and love to the trail! It’s a good one!
