DAY 2

I love garlic. But, man, eating a clove of raw garlic each day--even sliced between apple--is hard. It tastes amazing, but that's a SERIOUSLY concentrated amount of garlic.

So far, so good. I watched someone eat pizza on tv and I wanted to jump through the screen. And I still have an entire box of Esther Price in the fridge, but I'm holding strong. I think it will be hardest at the beginning because I am still getting used to all this new food. Today I had chicken and quinoa with salad greens and olive oil. I've never in my life had a salad with no dressing. I added some balsamic vinegar for a little extra flavor, but overall it was good. The smoothie for breakfast and dinner had blueberries and raspberries, coconut milk, and 1/4 of an avacado. Quite tasty. I am blowing my nose WAY less than what I usually do, so that's wonderful. And I can breathe out of both sides! Sadly, that is unusual in my book.

I've discovered I don't like mint or parsley. These herbs are in many of the recipes, and I have a huge bunch of parsley. Once I run out, I will not be purchasing more. I'll add some spinach for extra greens, if needed. For now, though, I'm sort of just forcing them down. It's not terrible, but it's also not my favorite.

Day 2 was great. I got through it with no problems.
