We’re almost at the finish line… although, my friend and I are going to continue on the cleanse for a few more days to support my cousin’s journey.
Yesterday, was our 7th day on the Dr Oz Cleanse. We are feeling really great.
In the morning, I started with my cup of warm water with lemon. Then, I fixed myself a Cherry Banana Smoothie, one of my favorites. The smoothie was a perfect breakfast since we had to take Benny to the doctor because he wasn’t feeling himself at all plus it was his nine month checkup.
NINE MONTHS!!! I just can’t believe that this little baby is so big now and doing so much. It was just the other day that we brought him home from the hospital, so excited to have a new little one, so blessed and so in love. Turns out, it’s a cold that has caused a lot of congestion in his lungs and some wheezing. Hopefully, it will work its way out of his system in a few more days. By the way, he’s 21lbs, 10oz and is 30.25″ long. He’s in the 97% for his height and 75% for his weight, just like my other kids. They are all going to be tall like their daddy. I will be the short one in this family.
For lunch, I just heated up some leftover Chickpea and Cauliflower Coconut Curry from the other day. Sooooo good!
As an afternoon snack, I had an Organic Honeycrisp Apple, my favorite, as well as a Brown Rice Cake with Almond Butter. I had to have two snacks because I baked up some Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins for Lucas and a couple of his friends that came over for a play date, and they smelled so good coming out of the oven. It was so very tempting but I resisted!
Then, we made a simple Roasted Vegetables over Quinoa with a side of Grilled Chicken. It was very satisfying and very tasty.
That’s about it for yesterday…. see you all tomorrow!
