Green Cleanse: Day 3

by Leslie Uhl on January 7, 2012

Day 2 was a day with a lot of traveling: I ended up with a banana, strawberry, spinach, flax meal, and apple smoothie for breakfast..and oh yes, spirulina and aloe vera also in there. Lunch on the go ended up being tomato soup from a local cafe after an appointment, and a big green salad for dinner.

Day 3: Today, that is, started with the same breakfast smoothie as day 2, only I also added celery and beet greens. I drank half in the morning and half at lunch. Later in the afternoon I had a kale salad. Yummy though very chewy, with basil dressing.

Dinner was a very green smoothie: all of the above minus the spirulina and aloe vera. Added in were carrots.

I feel great, and am drinking a lot of water, as always.

Happy New Year! Starting with a Cleanse…

by Leslie Uhl on January 5, 2012

Yes, the Holidays were fabulous, and delicious, and I admit I WAY indulged in lots of sugary, yummy, alcohol-based treats…and now my body is feeling sludgy, and sluggish, and I am ready to do a delicious green cleanse to get back in prime working order. I felt so good after 2 months on the Candida Diet: No sugar, yeast, or fermented ANYTHING, and I want to feel that good again, if not better!

Interesting to do this when I am starting to film a cooking show cooking food for kids that is not only tasty, but nutritious..yes, even the desserts. This certainly ensures that the kids will WANT to eat it as they will be doing ALL the tasting for a while!

Today, January 5th, I’m starting on Day 1. Anyone care to join me?
