Fasting Day One

Update on liquid fast:

What I've consumed today:
  • Water
  • A few sips of coffee
  • Half of a protein drink
  • More water
  • 2 cans of Amy's Organic Split Pea soup :]
Thoughts: I am hungry... mentally hungry, not physically hungry. Gotta get over that and reset my eating habits.

Fun Stuff: Top 10 Superfoods
  • Edamame: 17 g of protein per cup
  • Kiwifruit: 84 mg of vitamin C -- increases fat burning potential
  • Sweet Potatoes: Increases fat burning; reduces hunger
  • Yogurt: Contains 20% more of daily calcium needs
  • Eggs: Blocks fat absorbtion
  • Olive Oil: Contains healthy fats, protein, and complex carbs
  • Lentils: Shrinks fat cells and fat burning
  • Quinoa: Protein rich and full of essential amino acids needed to build metabolism-revving muscle
  • Apples: 4-5 g of fiber; filling and delicious!
  • Wild Salmon: Omega-3 fatty acids; reduce body fat

Note to self: Eat Healthier. Snack Less.

Much Love,
