I had a bumpy weekend food-wise, so I'm going even stricter to get back on track. For the next 4 days (don't want to do it too long and feel completely deprived), I will only eat things that grow (with the exception of salad dressings ). Today is shaping up as such:

• banana
• plum
• salad (baby spinach, sliced strawberries, and chopped pecans with a light Asian soy sesame ginger dressing)
• salad (romaine lettuce, dried cranberries, sliced almonds, dressing TBD)
• possibly a cup of 100% organic roasted red pepper and tomato soup

I'm working on liter #3 of water so far (plus a can of Coke Zero...probably another can this evening as well).

Oh, and to go along with yogachick's "thankfulness" theme: I am thankful to live in such a place, time, and lifestyle that I have a CHOICE as to what I put in my mouth. I am not starved nor deprived, and I have an abundance of options that are affordable and readily available. There are many people and places around thw world who do not have such a luxury.
