Today was one of those days where I felt a little ill prepared. I started out making a smoothie out of fruit that was supposed to be juiced because I wasn't paying attention to instructions. Oh well! Then at some point I decided to make a soup that was kind of good. Having that soup wasn't enough, I wanted some soup from the previous day and then began to eat sweet potato and carrot fries (Yum!)
The preparation is essential and I am failing miserably. If I had cut the carrots and potatoes the prior day it probably wouldn't have seemed so stressful to prepare them and then to cook them. It's ultra-time consuming. Another issue that I am having is my flexibility. Because I mostly work from home, I underestimate the length of time that it will take me to do something with the belief that I can multi-task. That's not really true. Once I end up in the kitchen I'm usually stuck there until I finish doing whatever it is that needs to be done :)
I did have an Aha Moment though...I am following these recipes but in reality if I would have thought this out better I am really just eating fruits and vegetables (a fast I've done before) and juicing a lot of vegetables. I could have developed my own meal plan that was a lot less expensive...here's to Aha Moments. The next phase will definitely be different.
