Post Reset Food

Still need to coin my own term for my eating style but breakfast this is pretty typical for me now - filling, healthy, balanced, and satisfying!

Darn you GRAINS! And...is Paleo for me?

So, since the reset, I've not been able to reintroduce grains without getting quite an upset stomach. And now that I've thought about it, while I ate grains during Phase 2 of the reset, my stomach was upset too...though at the time, I'd thought it was just the detox supplement. Now, I know better. So, going vegetarian doesn't seem like a plausible option if I eliminate grains... So, now I'm researching the paleo plan. Though should I opt to head that direction, I will still plan on doing at least "meatless Monday" and really focus on all fruits/veggies that day. And I would miss my granola so it's pretty likely that I'll end of with a modified version of something that I'll likely coin my own term for!

And Shakeology is not completely paleo as there are grains included. HOWEVER, it'd be SO worth me keeping it as part of my diet for several reasons. One, is that it tastes awesome. Two, the fruits, veggies, and even some meats today aren't as nutrient rich as they used to be as a result of being produced at such rapid rates so having the added nutrition means a great deal to me. Third, there are plenty of beneficial ingredients that I don't have easy access to putting into my own smoothie. Fourth, it's a filling and fast meal. And finally, it makes me feel good...more energy, better mood, fewer cravings. Enough said!

Day 21 Last Day of the Ultimate Reset!

Crazy that this is the last day...doesn't seem like I've done this for 3 weeks now but the good part is that on the other hand I'm so used to the meal prep and eating this way that they're definitely habits that I'll stick with. My main concern currently is just how I'll feel not taking the supplements as I can tell they have made a difference. I did not opt to continue having them come automatically so I'll give it a week or so and see how I feel and then possibly order.

Tomorrow I will post measurements, weight totals, etc. as well as concrete before/after differences so look for that!

Day 20 Ultimate Reset

I have no reason to stop eating this good! The only thing I need to work through is that my family is used to eating earlier and so I have been eating separately. So I need to start figuring in a more substantial afternoon snack for them. I have not ordered the maintenance supplements but am hearing from other post-resetters that I will really be wanting them so we shall see. I would gladly spend more money to continue feeling great and healthy instead of on doctors later on. Tomorrow I will post a last day video!
