On Day 7 for lunch, I realized that a light lunch is just fine for my body. Here’s what I had…

*Organic Whole Foods 365 Coconut Milk
*Organic Strawberries
*Organic Bananas
*Ezekiel Sprouted Cereal
*NutriHarmony’s Whey Protein

I started off with a can of coconut milk that I had put in the fridge so it would be really thick. Dumped that into a container, and sliced up berries and ‘nanners to fill it up. Then I mixed it and stuck it in the freezer for several hours to let it get really solid and cold. Dumped a bunch of sprouted cereal and a scoop of Whey…VIOLA! Oh baby I loved how easy it was, the taste, and I felt amazing all afternoon. What I love is 1. The protein is raw and pure. 2. The fruit is local and organic. And 3. the total cost of my lunch was probably under 5 bucks. Can’t beat that, huh?

Every 7 days we are on a fast and so that started last night at 8pm and it will carry for 18 hours until today at 2pm. From a physical perspective, a fast is great because like all things, our body needs a rest. I hope to enjoy the spiritual perspective of time in prayer in those moments I am thinking about chowing something down. Maybe as the 40 days go on I will increase the time. We’ll see.

On Day 8 I feel like I’ve gotten past the detox and feel like a million bucks. My body feels light and my tummy feels more tucked in than ever! AH YEAH! I woke up today with ease and feel like I have sustained energy throughout the day.

One last thought. Try Kombucha. It’s an organic raw tea that is full of enzymes and probiotics. Simply put, it’s a delicious drink full of all the good bacteria we need in our body that we kill daily because of the “poo poo caca” we feed ourselves. It has helped me with digestion for sure in the last couple of days. Make sure you get one that does not contain sugar, and I can make one small bottle last me 3 or 4 days. A swig here and a couple swigs there, and life is grand. It’s kept cold in your health food store and comes in all kinds of flavors.

More later,
