Still feeling super jazzed about this cleanse, but MAN, this whole thing is just, difficult.
Being on day 3, the one thing that's sticking out in my mind seems to be:
eating healthy takes major planning and is time-consuming.
Now that i'm nearing the end of day 3, I'm already having some slight detox symptoms (headaches) but the trade off also is, that today I feel
...awake...
It's amazing how after 1 and a half days of completely clean, organic, produce filled, ZERO processed stuff-eating that i'm already having intense cravings for bread and sugar.
like dreaming of this:

Day 2:
water
banana-berry smoothie
roasted veggie and chicken salad
celery
homemade almond butter
cod baked in foil
roasted veggies
Day 3:
water
green banana smoothie
kale-quinoa salad
carrots
homemade hummus
veggie stir fry
brown rice
For all these recipes, dressings are super simple and homemade, and there's a very low-to-no added salt on anything. I will say so far- it's all been mostly great.
I work with a gal that is on her second 30-day paleo/clean eating spree and she does a phenomenal job at it! I know she planned out her meals for a month, makes weekly grocery lists and does spend a little more for fresh, organic products, but with the cookbooks she's found a lot of her dishes sound (and smell!) really good. Way to go for keeping up with this for 3 days! *rock star*
