If it tastes good, don't eat it

I started a yeast cleanse diet last week. For 30 days I have to do a strict diet. I am also taking probiotics to put the good bacteria into my system. It's going to be hard I think because I love carbs, breads and sugar lol. But I am really excited to try this to see how it makes me feel afterwards. I know people who have done this and lived, so I am confident it won't kill me. It  might kill Jon though. :) I can't have anything with flour or any form of sugar. So no pasta, breads, yogurt, cheese, milk, etc. So far it sounds like it if tastes good, I probably shouldn't eat it.

Day One - I had some yummy scrambled eggs with spinach with some salsa for breakfast. Only I realized that apparently the salsa manufactures put sugar in the salsa. Oops, so I didn't do so good for breakfast ha ha. Why do we Americans add sugar to everything by the way. It's no wonder we are all eating to much sugar.

Lunch was a salad with cheese, black beans and a black bean patty. I didn't look at my list right until after lunch and I guess I am not supposed to eat dairy either. So double oops for today. Oh well, it was a start in the right direction. Lunch was really hard because I usually just eat what the kids don't because I don't want to waste food. So I just threw away the uneaten portions of the sandwiches instead of eating them. I felt like I was throwing money away. I am going to start making fewer sandwiches and then only making more if the kids eat what I gave them.

Dinner is taco soup and unless I put cheese on it, I should be within the rules for dinner so yay!!

So far I have a little headache and I am craving chocolate chips, bread and anything I can't have. Pretty sure this is only going to get worse and that it's normal. I do miss my Sobe Lite drinks. But they have artificial sugar, so that's a no no. At least I remembered that right!

Photo Book

I made this book for my parents for Mothers Day and Fathers Day. It is basically photos and quotes from the last two years of watching the kids. They have sure grown so much and I had so much fun putting this together. I thought family and friends would also like to see the book, so here is the link.
