Woot Woot! Double digits here we are! AND I had a wonderful, RAW, no-cheating-kind-of Day 9! Day 10 anyone?

DAY 10

1. Daily Affirmation:

” I am eating to thrive, not just survive.”

Hopefully, you are not doing this cleanse to just torture yourself with raw foods. My hope for you is a lifetime full of life-filled, enzyme-rich raw vegetables that will drive your energy levels through the roof, revitalize your skin, and cleanse every cell in your body. I have been mostly raw for two-and-a-half years now and will NEVER go back to the way I ate “pre-cancer.” It was a gradual uphill climb to get here, but my food addictions, toxic body chemistry, and cancer all were shed along the way.  I truly believe you could have the same results if you continue this lifestyle after the cleanse. Just keeping to a green smoothie for breakfast, a BIG, FILLING salad for lunch, and a nutrient dense mostly vegan or vegetarian dinner that will rock your socks off. I’ll give you some recipe suggestions later this week. If meat is your thing- you can have a it a few times a week, but not every night like many of us are used to. AND it must be raised in its natural environment: free-range, wild, etc. After all, you are eating to THRIVE and not just survive.

2. Today’s Menu:

Breakfast- green tea, Pango Smoothie (2 peaches- pitted, 1 cup of mango, 1 banana, 4-5 leaves Chard, about 2 cups of water)

Snack- continue with smoothie, piece of fruit if needed.

Lunch- BIG salad (1 head chopped romaine, 1 chopped tomato, 1/2 yellow bell pepper, 1/2 avocado, 1/2 diced cucumber, 1/2- 1 cup sprouted or cooked lentils, 1/2 cup almonds, 1/4 cup red onion, 1/2 cup blueberries, olive oil/ vinegar)

Snack- 1 sliced apple and almond butter, Red-Green Juice (1 beet, 4 sticks celery) Use juicer. Add a few carrots for a sweeter juice if you’d like!

Dinner- Green Delicious Smoothie (5 kale leaves with stems, 1/2 avocado, 3 garlic cloves, 1/2 lime juiced, 1/2 tsp sea salt, 2 Roma tomatoes, 1/2 pepper, 2 carrots, water as desired.)

Dessert- naturally caffeine free herbal tea

3. Daily Questions:

Can you visualize yourself 3 months down the road still eating mostly raw?

Do you feel like a smoothie for breakfast, a salad for lunch, and a nutrient rich mostly vegetarian dinner is reasonable for you long-term?
