๐ฟ I have been eating “clean” cutting out processed foods and refined sugar.
๐ฟ Yesterday & today I made this smoothie and found it was ACE for KICKING CHOCOLATE CRAVINGS โค๏ธ๐ซ๐๐ป
Foods I have cut out:
- White Potatoes ๐ฅโ
- Pasta ๐โ
- Bread ๐โ
- Biscuits ๐ช, Cakes ๐ฐ, Sweets ๐ฌ etcโ
- Sugary Drinks or Artificial Sweeteners โ
- White Rice ๐โ
- Gluten Crisps โ
- Refined sugar โ
- Chocolate ๐ซโ
( I don’t eat/drink dairy products anyway)
๐ฆ Due to my thyroid condition I do struggle with having sufficient energy & suffer with “brain fog”. Over the last couple of years I had slipped into a poor diet & was feeling sluggish and weak as a result.
๐ธ This decision is not based on weight loss as I am actually happy with my body BUT I’M REALLY UNHAPPY WITH HOW MY BODY FEELS INSIDE. I am suffering with joint pain sluggishness and the heavier my body is the weaker I become.
So I thought I would document & share my new ‘clean eating’ habits & results.
This is how I started my day today. I am home so had some time to put a smoothie together.
I had my medication and supplements with plenty of ๐Lemon Water๐ง.
Lemon water has definitely become a winner for me, helping with energy levels, and I think digestion. Ideally I drink with bottled filtered water, but tap water is tolerable with lemon for me. ๐๐ฟ
๐๐ผ๐๐ผ I did some yoga and followed that with this delicious smoothie. ๐ I included some cocoa powder as I have been craving chocolate and didn’t want to be temped to buy sugary processed chocolate. โ๐ซ
- 1 Banana ๐
- Handful of frozen berries (red and blue)
- Half an avocado
- Almond Milk ๐ฅ
- 1 Scoop vanilla protein powder
