Crazy Sexy Diet Day Seven

It's Day Seven of the rest of my life!!!  I think I needed a clear timeline to be motivated to start this cleanse-slash-new-way-of-eating, because to say "no more sugar or coffee, period" would have turned me off.  But now, I feel as though I could stick to this diet forever.

Let's see how I feel after eating wedding cake next weekend.  Yes, I will be eating wedding cake.  At least one bite. If I have to sit through a wedding, you better believe I'm having some cake.

Actually, cake sounds disgusting.  So did coffee when I went into Peet's today.  I'm clean!!!

I'll start with today's food:

• As I've mentioned, my activity level has gone way, way, way up and my energy level has stayed the same.  In other words, I'm not bursting at the seems with green juice energy, but I'm able to pull off two to three times as much exercise and still feel "normal".
• I didn't realize how much I like breakfast until I can't eat until noon.  The green juice seems to actually make me hungry, but I get used to it and by noon I barely even care about food.  I love the way I feel and I'm afraid to add food to my morning routine lest I feel less good.  I've tried adding oats and walnuts to the juice, but it doesn't make a huge difference.
• Why does Carr say to eat fruit alone?  When she mentions that berries can be eaten in the morning if I am still hungry after my green juice, but to make sure when eating fruit not to eat anything else.
• Why does she say to get rid of processed foods but two snacks on the cleanse include flax crackers (processed, IMO) and Earth Balance?  Am I not getting something?
• This weekend, without the help of coffee and no sugar, I did yoga, jogged the dogs, read a boring book and wrote a paper about it, read lots more and did more assignments, went clothes shopping where there was a million people (exhausting), blogged, cleaned the house and did laundry.  And I still have energy left!
