Days 12 and 13

My biggest lesson over the past two days...DRINK MORE WATER.

Friday was a fabulous day. I started the day with yoga sculpt, then on to some errands which landed me at home at about 2pm. I was starving because I did not plan very well. Second lesson...just go to a restaurant and eat a salad! I easily got re-hydrated and fed during dinner time. I have some really great friends that provided delicious fruits and veggies for me on top of all the delicious cooked food for others.

My Menu(it's pretty sad and I wouldn't recommend repeating what I did)
Breakfast-orange
Snack-two apricots and an apple
Lunch-a large salad
Dinner-watermelon, grapes and more salad and finally a lot of water.

Saturday was the dandiest day of all because it was the day of the 3rd annual Dandy cup. My friends and I dress in all white, gather at balboa park for a day for croquet, badminton, finger sandwiches and mint juleps. It's high society at it's finest! This was the day I had my first craving. When making sandwiches in the morning, I found the smell of the bread so tempting...oh how I wanted to eat it all up, but I didn't. It's fun to be in the moment. To allow ourselves the enjoyment of wanting something, but being unattached to the outcome. It really was ok that I didn't get to eat the bread. I wasn't sad. I didn't feel deprived. When it was over, I went on with my morning, enjoying the next task.

Learning my lesson from Friday. I made a beautiful bowl of fruit to share as well as a large salad for myself and drank plenty of water. It was an awesome day. Everyone brought creative, yummy looking sandwiches and played fun games all day.

My Menu
Breakfast-didn't really have anything official as I was preparing the fruit salad, I nibbled
Lunch-I pretty much ate the entire fruit salad I brought and some veggies another person brought.
Dinner-the large salad I had made for the daytime
Snack-two apricots

Peace :)
