Half Way Home


I've been eating clean for 2 months now and have lost 14 lbs!  I have to lose 13 more lbs to reach my goal.  Pants that used to be very tight are now loose... I Love it when that happens!

Here is what I typically eat Monday through Friday:
Breakfast:  Hard boiled egg, cutie mandarin or 1/2 grapefruit, 1 homemade nut and seed square (I'll post my recipe later)
Morning Snack:  Green smoothie (Spinach, home made goat milk Kefir, Spirulina, frozen berries, almonds, raw honey, flax seeds, protein powder, avocado, ice, and water).
Sometimes I also have one of the following:
   Nut and seed square
   Celery w/almond butter
   Picante inka corn (from Sprouts)
   One of the snacks from the YouTube video below.
Lunch:  Lentil vegetable soup w/nut and seed square or Marys Gone crackers and/or salad
Afternoon Snack:  same as morning snacks (I only have the smoothie as my morning snack)
Dinner:  Lentil vegetable soup w/mixed salad (greens, tomato, olives, cucumber, seeds and nuts, fresh lime juice, and a light drizzle of Annie's Light Honey Mustard dressing)

I also drink 3 things during the day:  My home made Kombucha w/fresh lime juice, ice water w/lemon and stevia, and one cup of hot Roasted Dandelion Root tea before bed.
I don't eat any food after 6 pm.
I allow myself 1 “cheat” meal on Saturday or Sunday.
