Variety really is the spice of life
So I've been on this cleansing diet for the past 5 days. It's 21 days total. And I hate it already. I am severly limited in what I can eat. It's mostly veggies and fruit, with brown rice and lentils thrown in. On day 10, I can add 2-4 servings of chicken and fish. I've already been cheating and adding a serving of chicken or fish in randomly.
There are only a set number of veggies I can eat, and most of them I don't really care for. I am tired of salads and stir fry. Jeff made lentil soup for me the other day and that's good, though I'm tiring of it too. I've decided to let myself cheat a little bit each day, whether it be chicken on my salad, a few steamed shrimp or what have you, just so I don't go insane. Though, I am really freggin bored with this. My cheat today might be a portobello sandwhich. I can have the portobello, but not the bread.
I have started a list of things that I want to eat once this is over:
chipotle burrito
ice cream
chocolate
cookies
pasta
mac & cheese
egg sandwhich
bagels
Outback steak
kebobs
fiber bars
veggie burgers
ramen
roast beef sandwhich
