Day 4 of 21

I'll be honest - I haven't experienced any major shifts yet on this cleanse. I think that so far it's been about focusing on the food, and the rest will come later. I've noticed that I haven't been that hungry, strangely enough. I did get tired this afternoon, but that might have also been because I was watching a (fairly interesting) presentation and (fairly boring) panel discussion in a darkish room. So afterwards I had a decaf soy latte. I know that the soy milk was sweetened, so that's my little stretch of the day.

Breakfast: Two wheat-free Barbara's fig newtons, a banana, and this delicious mango-passionfruit herbal tea.

Lunch: Baby carrots & hummus and a few bites of leftover gluten-free pasta from Sunday. Let me tell you - gluten-free pasta is pretty good when it's fresh but mushy and gross when it's been sitting in the fridge for a few days. Blech. Oh, and some Superfood Naked juice - you know, the stuff that's green and looks totally gross but is really delicious? It has wheat grass in it, and I'm not sure if that has gluten, but I figure that overall it's really good for you, so that's what counts.

Snack: Decaf soy latte and a handful of cashews.

Dinner: Garbanzo bean salad, brown rice pasta with cannellini beans and roasted tomatoes & cippolini onions. Yum! Dinner was courtesy of Kim, who always turns out delicious meals.

I have been drinking more water, which is good. And I need to be sure not to fall into the decaf soy latte trap. It could be a slippery slope. Also, I was glad to see that my strawberry jam from Trader Joe's doesn't have sugar in it. Sweet! (naturally)
