I, however, am feeling mighty fine. I still have my headache (4 days now!) but otherwise I feel really good. Hopefully my other half picks up tomorrow.
This is what we ate today:
Breakfast: Superfood museli with berries, grated apple, seed mix and coconut
Morning Tea: Banana and handful of raw nuts
Lunch: Sesame salad with artichoke, chickpea, celery and kale and a bowl of lentil and carrot soup
Afternoon Tea: Blueberry smoothie, handful of olives then a rooibos tea
Dinner: Wild rice, fennel and mushroom pilaf
Drinks: Lots of water, a vitamin liver detox drink, and some rooibos tea
The seed mix is a blend of ground up seeds and we're putting them on almost everything during the detox. It's about 50% ground flaxseed/linseed to 50% blend of other seeds. I used chia, black sesame, sunflower and pumpkin seeds. Once you blend them keep them in a non-plastic container tightly sealed in the fridge. I've been sprinkling it on the kid's peanut butter toast and they're enjoying it too.
How was it?
The museli was nicer than I thought. I hate breakfast and wasn't looking forward to eating a huge bowl of warm museli but it was actually quite good. To make it you put 40g of raw rolled oats in a bowl with 1 Tbsp seed mix (as above), 1 Tbsp dessicated coconut, 1 Tbsp blueberries and 1/2 grated apple. Then you cover it with boiling water and leave it for a few minutes so the oats soften and puff up.
Lunch was pretty good too. I got a bit sick of the salad so I also had some leftover carrot and lentil soup with some seed mix on top.
I skipped the olives for afternoon tea (couldn't see them going with a smoothie!) but Mr J had them.
Dinner was delicious!
Exercise
Once the kids are in bed we're going to do a couple of short detox focused yoga practices on myyogaonline.com. We also spent a few hours walking around an outlet mall today - that counts right?
