Day 13

Back to the week. It was such a nice weekend. We just relaxed and spent time with Friends and Family, and it was great. So today was kind of a bummer to get back in the swing of things. Lyla is getting more and more confident each day with her standing, and sneaking. She was trying to dance today while standing and was rather upset when she fell to her bottom. She is getting so big, I feel like her babiness is already starting to fade and its getting replaced by these pretty little girl features. Only two weeks until I have a one year old!
I feel like Brett is getting bored with the Detox thing. The other day he said, "so after this Diet are you done dieting and then you'll just work out?" I think he misses having delicious sometimes containing fatty substances homemade dinners and treats (and leftover lunches). Yes, I will just go back to working out, while still being sensible about what I eat. If I am not careful this whole Detox will have been for nothing. This has been pretty rough turning down some of my favorite indulgences, however it has showed me that I can do it, and it has also shown me what I can achieve when I do practice self control, so I feel like I am growing a lot as a person too.

Breakfast: Detox tea with 1/2 fizz stick-Chocolate Protein Shake - 2 Scoops- 4 oz. Almond Milk, 9 ice cubes and 1/4 cup water
Snack:Slivered Almonds and Cranberries

Tomorrow I start the 7- day Body Cleanse, Tara told me to drink a lot of water with it, and to add a little lemon or lime if needed. Wish me luck - 32 oz. of fun coming my way!
