16 Days of 21 Days
Only 5 more days to go. I think I'll do a maintence for one week and then go back on the diet. Last week I didn't do so good and lost a total of 10lbs. I'm hoping my last week I'll do better. I have noticed that my skin is clear and my hair feels softer. I've also been eating raw honey everyday for a week and I think that has really helped with the pain in my feet. Very little pain these days and feeling so much better.

This will probably be a part 2 blog day, maybe even part 3. I need to get back into the game. So far so good this morning, although it is only 8:15.
I noticed this morning that my feet haven't been hurting as much lately. I think it has to do with the honey have been eating everyday for the past week. Raw honey is very sweet and it has a funky flavor to it has well, but if taken in small quantities it isn't too bad. I made the mistake of eating a spoonful and couldn't get it down. I've heard that there are great benefits to eating honey with cinnamon and I'm wondering if that will help with the flavor. I'll have to get it a try tonight.

Should have never had that pizza because I have fallen off the wagon. I had chicken salad for lunch and a twix later in the afternoon. I was doing so good and I need to get my head back into the game.

The pizza party was today and I had one slice and a brownie. Didn't have my drink that afternoon and had some soup later that evening, but not much.

11 Days of 21 Days
I walked my 1 mile in 23 minutes. Of course that isn't all that greater considering that someone ran a mile in 1 minute, but every little bit helps. Plus, I knocked off 2 minutes. I was normally doing it in 25 minutes. So good for me. I didn't do the weight training because I'm a bit sore from yesterday. Tomorrow will be the day for that and a walk. Although I'm not sure when I'll be able to do my walk because there will be a pizza party at work during my normal walking time. Great!!! (sarcastically)

Pretty good day today. I added a strength training routine to my schedule. Nothing to much, but something. I'm doing the biggest loser exercise dvd I just love the guy on there of course I can't think of his name...Bob? Anyway, I don't think I have a stomach muscle left. I was doing some setups and my stomach just cramped up on me. What a horrible feeling.
Tomorrow I'll walk on the treadmill at lunch and do 1 mile and if I'm feeling good, maybe a little more. I think I'll also do the strength training when I get home if I'm not to sore.

Made the Collard Greens Soup today for dinner and that braggs liquid amino is the best!!! Makes it taste so much better. I wasn't able to eat the whole thing, so I'll save the rest for tomorrow. Also think need a new blender. The soup had some bits in it that I had to chew.

I missed a lot of my drinks today because I was out and about with my Mom shopping. I was tired and hungry and would have loved to have had a pepperoni pizza, but I made a another batch of the bean soup.
I couldn't wait anymore and weighed myself and I've lost 7lbs so far. YEAH!!! Unfortunately I was cheating on some of the those days with a handful of peanuts here and there. Promising myself to do better next week.

I was happy to come home and find that the Braggs Liquid Amino has been delivered. So I put a little on my Spicy Bean soup and it was GREAT!!!

I made the Green Bean soup last night and smelled wonderful, but tasted terrible. I'll have to really work on getting the right combination of vegetables or just have the Spicy Bean soup or have a green or vegesplash every night. I know for sure I don't like kale.
Excluding the soups, the diet is pretty easy and the drinks are good. If you get the Apple/Banana Green drink us apple juice. It is so much better. I would like to use organic but it isn't easy to find. The vegesplash just taste like V8 and I find it better to drink them somewhat cool or room temperture.
On to day 7....

Today was much better and got a hold of myself. I also brought an extra green drink to help with the cravings.
Tonight I'm going to have the beans for dinner. I was going to make the green bean soup which I think calls for Braggs Amino, but I'm not going to receive it until tomorrow, so I think I'll wait until tomorrow to make it. I'm really hope it helps with the flavor of the soups.
Also did my 1 mile of walking today.

Yesterday was a tough day and did very poorly.
That is all I'm going to say. Very disappointed in myself.

3 Days of 21 Days
Not too bad of a day considering it was my first day at work. I actually found it easier to stick with it at work......around 3pm I had some cravings and had a couple of pretzels. I know bad girl.
I added the 1 mile walking, which seemed to move "things" along and I found that the apple juice with the Apple/Banana Green Essentials works so much better.
I have to do something about those soups. I placed an order for more Vegesplash and Green Essentials Berry flavored. I also got the Braggs Aminos, because I have got to do something about those soups. I'm hoping it will add some flavor to them.

2 Day of 21 Days
I woke up late this morning and was going to use that as an excuse not to do the diet and start again tomorrow. But I thought better of this and started at 9:30. I did a little bit better with the drinks, but I did have a few almonds and a handful of peanuts.
I've decided that starting tomorrow I'll use apple juice with the green drink. It does say on the directions I can use juice or water. Think I'll use the juice. As for the vegesplash you can only use water. I've found that if I put it in a water bottle and use room temperture water I can get it down much faster.
I made the Spicy Bean soup for dinner and it was very good.
I did weigh myself this morning, even though I said that I would wait the 21 days. So far I've lost 2.4lbs.

1 day of 21 days
The day has been a little difficult. There seems to be a couple of different schedules to follow and I'm trying to pick the one that works best for me. The apple/banana green drink is ok and much sweeter then I thought. The Vege Splash taste like V8 and it was pretty good, so whas the berry drink.
I made the Ginger Carrot Soup and it wasn't so good and had a hard time eating it. As a matter a fact I didn't finish it.
There were times that was I really hungry and just waited until it was time for my next time, but I think tomorrow I'll have a bottle of water at hand at all times. I was very tired, then again it has been a long week and I have gotten much sleep. I have been going to the bathroom a lot. Mostly #1 and a little of #2.
All in all it was a good day, but I did have a lot of curvings like now I could go for a tasty bacon cheeseburger.
