Day 2 of My UN-Processed Life! Bonus My Sister's Birthday Party! March 15, 2014

Day 2 of My UN-Processed Life!

Well I started out really good today! I had my lemon and cyan water first thing, then my juice for breakfast. I had read a tip from a lady in our Health and Endurance group about having Lemon and Cyan water every morning! You can read more deatails about that here: http://foodbabe.com/2011/12/27/habits-for-the-new-year-and-beyond-1-drink-lemon-water/   I have to say on the first morning I was not convinced this was for me, however as I have gotten use to it I have come to realize that even if there was no other health benefits from drinking this, it definitely wakes me up in the mornings! This is a habit I will keep!

Next on the agenda was My Sister Karen's Birthday! We met at Lake Conestee Nature Park to have a picnic and hike! The hike was really fun and we made it about 2 miles! I packed healthy snacks for the hike and some water, so as far as planning snacks and getting in some exercise, it was a total Win! However for lunch the food and nutrition was a complete fail! Again I did not prepare lunch items and so I ate what was there! I had 3 Zaxby's Nibblers and a small piece of coconut cake!

During the afternoon I did some research on super foods and other things I could add into my juice to boost my energy and have other added health benefits!  I ordered maca root, chia seeds, and goji berries! Later I will write about the benefits of each of these, and some new ones I have added since starting this journey. For dinner I had juice again and called it a day since I had not done that well at lunch!
