Day 31: DONE!!! And notes on food

I'm done! Except... I suspect perhaps I'm not.

We made brunch this morning. It seemed the obvious thing to do - brunch is my favorite meal and food category, and I have been really enjoying the mindfulness of preparing food. This was a little stressy due to a late awakening, but still turned out good.

The food was prepared well, and tasted as it should. I'm hesitating to use the word, 'Delicious', because I was totally overwhelmed by the heaviness of everything, and I felt like a stone after eating. I don't think I had a huge portion. 

I found myself craving a green drink. I picked up another box of juices this morning, and had one. It was fantastic.  So... keeping up with juices + small meals that are not butter-themed. And lots of soup (I love soup!)

wooo woo wooooo! big ups big ups! 30 days... that is a long long time. but i'm so glad you are going to keep on going!

i know what you mean about feeling like a stone after eating. i'll occasionally indulge myself with a bowl of pasta when i need a fix, but holy shit it floors me afterwards. i think its our bodies mobilising every resource it has to digest the meal. which is exactly the opposite of what food should do - its supposed to give us energy, not take it away!

anyways, hugs to you!!!

Well done. You are an inspiration.
I have cut out alcohol for a month and am finding that hard enough, I don't think i could manage this.
A ton of will power you must have!
