Let the 28 Days Begin

Start the 28 day challenge this week!


We started yesterday. Remember it is all about adding nutrient dense foods to your menu everyday.


1 large salad
1/2 cup beans - hummus, soup, in sides etc.
3 pieces of fresh fruit - no dried or juice
1 oz. of raw nuts
2 large servings of greens - all leafy greens, broccoli, brussel sprouts etc. steamed or raw.


Eat these everyday along with what you normally eat. Let the 'old' food be crowded out by these nutrient dense wonders.


Here was my day yesterday:


Green smoothie - kale, banana, organic apple, soymilk, water and ice
A large salad and bowl of black bean soup for lunch
1/4 cup raw walnuts and sunflower seeds
A huge plate of sauteed turnip greens with garlic, sun dried tomatoes, and a few strands (literally) of left over pasta for dinner.

I was full, energized and finding I was not in the mood for one more fruit. already am noticing a real sensitivity toward sweet foods. They just are not as attractive.


Sunday night we had a store bought pizza crust piled HIGH with steamed kale, onions, garlic and artichokes and a big salad of spinach, arugula, and mizuna...delish!

Take a moment and share a typical day for you. What are you observing about yourself as you put this into practice?
