I was just kidding with that last post, we do have a real toilet in now, not a porta potti. but Mike still has to paint and stuff so I will post the new photos when he has finished. By the way you can look at the pictures of our new kitchen via the Renovation Project link at the top of the page.

I am 7 days into my detox diet and it is going well although I fell off the wagon slightly on the weekend. I never thought I could actually enjoy a Vegetarian diet. A Vegetarian diet without dairy or wheat even. Alot of vegetarians smother their food in cheese to get any taste. Seems to be missing the point of vegetarianism if you do that. But this diet is extremely tasty without all that. Before the diet, bread and pasta were pretty big in my life, but I have been wheat free for over a week now and I’m not missing it at all.  I’m still getting the bloating though, so wheat doesnt seem to be the cause of that (i didnt think it was but everyone else seemed to think it was. narrow minded people).

On the scales I have lost a kilo, but I am a bit reluctant to believe that as I dont feel any thinner. Also I have gone from 30.7% body fat to 30.4%. Again, I am a bit reluctant to believe my body fat scales here too. I want to see results not read them.

I will see how i look and feel after the 30 days (23 more days to go)

I started the detox diet yesterday and so far so good, the food has been delicious. I didnt think it possible to go wheat free and not be hungry. Here was yesterdays menu:

Breakfast – Muesli with apricots and dates

Lunch – Tuna with lime and dill,curried quinoa and toasted almond and herb salad

Dinner – Aduki bean casserole topped with sprouted mung beans 

The mung beans were just like noodles.
