I lost 2.2 lbs. I'm now down 7.4 lbs in four days. I had more energy yesterday. I loved my cheese. I chose a goat cheese from Span called "Cana de cabra Mitica" and enjoyed every bite. For chocolate I ate "Newman's Own Organics" dark chocolate with 54% cacao.
Since Tuesday, I've been taking probiotics to offset the antibiotics in an attempt to avoid yeast overgrowth. Yesterday I opted to have chocolate over wine, however, when I woke up this morning my tongue looked white. Today I completed my antibiotics so hopefully I'll recover by next week.
Today's Plan
After I wake up:
- Weigh myself
- Drink 16oz of water with lemon
- Take my liver supplement
Breakfast - The book recommends 1 cup of flax granola with ½ cup blueberries, ½ an apple or ½ a pear, however, as I mentioned in my posts I ran out of granola so I am replacing it with the compote.
- 1 cup of the Berry Pear Compote
Lunch
- Arugula with carrots and 1 ounce of goat cheese
- Spicy vegetarian soup
- Chicken with spicy apricot glaze (page 4)
- Sauteed zucchini with onion and basil, orange oil (page 5) and 2 tablespoons grated manchego
- Beet and carrot salad with sunflower seeds
- 1 rye cracker with 2 tablespoons of raw almond butter and ½ an apple
- 1 ounce dark chocolate or cinnamon poached fruit (page 50) with whipped cream

I'll be doing this tomorrow. I'm desperately hoping I pass todays' cheese test so I can have the manchego tomorrow. :-)
I am doing this one tomorrow, too. I will be avoiding the basil part of the saute, though. I've been reactive to it before and don't want any confusion with the manchego. :)
