Round 2 - Day 3

I tried to like the cucumber salad again... I really did, but I just don't like cucumber that much, it was just TOO cucumbery. I can eat cucumbers in small amounts, just not a whole bunch at once. I spent a lot of time in the kitchen on day 3. I had to work at the Y from 4-8 so I had to bring my dinner and have it ready by 3.45. I had it all ready and even had the kid's dinners done! Only... I forgot Xavier's dinner on the kitchen counter, so had to buy him Subway (YES, there is a Subway in our Y!).  My sushi also didn't roll well for today's dinner, but I did think to double the recipe for Day 4's lunch.

So far, things seem a lot easier than last time. I know what I'm doing and I'm confident I can get through the 21 days!

However, on Monday the crock part of the crock pot fell out of the kitchen cabinet when I was reaching for something else. We're starting to outgrow our house and it is hard to keep organized sometimes, especially after we packed everything up for our move and didn't end up moving and put things back. I was so frustrated about the state of things that I decided to clean, purge and organize. Almost completely done with the kitchen, although I'm sure I could purge more. I have heard that the Reset makes you clean/organize your outside world while you are working on cleaning the inside of your body. Makes sense.

I am having challenges making all of the food and sometimes eating all of the food. I think I had that problem last time I did the Reset. I was so thankful this morning for the option to use Shakeology for Breakfast. It was awesome to not really think about getting it all around as well as preparing food and the kids for the day. The Vegan Chocolate Shakeology is also curbing my sweet tooth craving. I've used it a couple of times as snacks (only half a serving) and it really hit the spot. It is much easier to stick with the Reset if you get a little chocolate!!

Another challenge I'm having is the body aches. I've been taking epsom salt baths every night but also need to start using the foam roller. It is all good though, because it means it is working! Be gone toxins!

Want to know one thing that is AWESOMESAUCE?! I've not had caffeine since Sunday and haven't had ANY withdrawal symptoms. Completely different than the first time I did the Reset! I don't know how it is different, maybe the fact that I'm taking epsom salt baths, dry brushing, walking more and using Chocolate Vegan Shakeology or a combination of them all, but I'll take it!
