It's harder to do this when you want to go socialize with people or you have work events that feed you. We are actually considering stopping at the end of January, which will be day 25 for us. We have several social occasions and work events coming up that will involve food that is definitely not on program.
I do think we can see differences in our health, bodies, and energy levels from this challenge, and I think we're going to try and pay attention to the way the foods we add in affect us. As people who lives often center around table fellowship, I'm not sure this way of eating is something we could keep up consistently, but I'm glad we're done it.
Friday's Menu
snacks: mandarin orange and dehydrated fruit (the one thing they had at the testing site that didn't have added sugar, grains, etc)
lunch: leftover kitchen sink soup
dinner: frittata, salad, and chicken sausage
Saturday's Menu
breakfast: frittata, sweet potato pancakes, fruit salad, apple sauce
lunch: leftover roasted veggie and hazelnut soup
snacks: banana, soft boiled egg, chocolate cherry mousse, mandarin oranges, frozen cherries, coconut butter (my attempt to make this didn't work out that well, it was super grainy--I guess some thing really do require a vitamix)
dinner: shredded pork and carrot sticks
Sunday's Menu
breakfast: green smoothie and soft boiled egg
lunch: salad with grilled chicken and grilled veggies
snack: mandarin orange and some prunes
dinner was a potluck and we can't be sure of the sugar content in the things we didn't bring. I ate: ham, turkey, roasted veggies, curried cauliflower, salad (scooped trying to avoid the crunchy noodles and cheese), and mixed fruit
