Well, it's week #3 and I'm feeling very strong, and very clean. "We don't eat any animal products!" my youngest daughter (5 years old) proclaimed during breakfast, as she was downing a green smoothie. Wow, can you ask for anything more? My wife and kids have joined me full-on, and we are each other's greatest support structure. Green smoothies in the morning are our default, can't go without them. Salads for lunch, and the occasional vegan-made meal at a restaurant with co-workers (gotta fit in with the new company, eh?). It's easy, just tell them no-eggs, no-meat, no-dairy, and you're good to go. I had a Thai dish (pad-see-ew) and a burrito on the days I didn't eat my salad at work. For the Thai dish, tofu no meat, and no eggs. For the burrito, veggie burrito, no sour cream. How easy is that? And dinner is just a salad, some steamed veggies, some beans and rice on occasion. Just simple, plant-based, whole foods.
I weighed myself after my long run today. I hate getting on the scale, because I didn't feel like I lost any weight. For me, losing half a pound is a freaking miracle. So, guess my reaction when I stepped up and the scale read FOUR POUNDS LESS than last week! Huh!? Nah, must be mistake. I got off, got back on, got off, got back on. And it all read the same. I'm only 1.5 lbs. off of my two year low weight. And if I recall correctly, it took me 3 months of hard training to get down that low.
For next week's training, I'm repeating my week #1 schedule exactly. I'll give a recap at the end of the week. For the blog, I'm gonna delve into some fairly heavy topics about health, disease, food, etc. I've been deep into thought about a lot things, and I want to share with you all next week.
Have a great weekend! Enjoy the sunshine!
