Detox Day 7 - Halfway there!

I'm a day behind so i'll blog twice today. Yesterday was a nice relaxing day -had a visit from my parents (who are also on the cleanse) and got to enjoy a potluck of detox-friendly foods. We had rice paper salad rolls full of shredded carrots, avodado, cucumber and cilantro with a delicious spicy almond dipping sauce (from Delicious Detox). We also had two kinds of sweet potato salad -one was warm with mung beans, roasted onion and an olive oil and lime dressing, and the other was cold with diced cucumber, cilantro and the same dressing. Dessert was black berries, pineapple and pomegranite.

Hopefully you are noticing your pants feel looser at this point! Going gluten-free makes a big impact on the midsection - people feel less bloated, and have probably greatly reduced their amount of bread intake which leads to weightloss. I challenge you to try to continue with eating less breads - get away from the sandwich lunch! Bring leftovers instead - soups, stir-fries etc. Use crackers, wraps and whole grains in the place of bread, and try to keep some of them gluten-free. Eating this way not only gives you more energy, leads to weightloss, but also decreases the development of allergies against gluten!
