Day Eleven, Tuesday June 21, 2011

Breakfast: Fruit salad consisting of blueberries, grapes, and eclipse cantaloupe.

Snack: We both had bananas although my spouse had natural peanut butter in addition

Lunch: My spouse had a romaine salad with tomatoes, pickles, onions, and rice vinegar and he had a handful of carrots and grapes. I had ½ a tomato with Himalayan salt and pepper and an ear of corn.

Snack: I had a peach and a tablespoon of olives and my spouse had a pear.

Dinner: We had an ear of corn, side of red kidney beans, and oven roasted vegetables.

Snack: I had a granny smith apple with a tablespoon of natural peanut butter. My spouse had a cup of eclipse cantaloupe. We then finished the night off with fresh juiced orange juice!!!! It was a refreshing change-up and much appreciated change. The orange juice was so smooth that OJ from a store cannot come close. I am not sure if we will ever buy OJ from a store in the future or if I will just resort to making the tastier version courtesy of our handy-dandy juicer. 

Overall: It was another good day besides the smog in our area from several wildfires throughout our state. We could smell the smoke and the whole day was hazy and it was all in the air which made it harder to breathe and so we both stayed inside a little more than we normally would. We felt good and are at a point that we feel like our changes have become more of our routine than a hindrance. We are doing well and pushing forward. I did exercise three times last week to get started and by Sunday my reoccurring knee injury had flared. Therefore I took Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday off and iced my right knee a good bit. I plan to get back on the wagon tomorrow as my knee is starting to feel a little better.
