Being Me- Vivian: January Challenge - Diet Cleanse

In January 2013, I started working out with Amy Brennick - Personal Training after a 4 month absence- financial concerns only. But on my usual workout nights, I did absolute nothing. I didn't notice any weight gain. But I was a bit down for no real reason. Anyway, first week back with personal training- ok. My second week back, I thought I had the flu!!! I was so sore, it was crazy. Is that what happens to muscles when you don't use them. NOT good. Anyway, I am trying to get back into shape both physically and nutritionally!
I am also working with Amy's Saturday morning group. It is a 8 week challenge. And I had my first week! I am also working on diet detox. Back to eating better, especially after the holidays. The Detox is only 1 week. I am trying to get a jump start and I am using the Mark Hyman- Ultra Simple Diet. I like simple, lists and checklists. What more could a girl ask for.
I started today after a cup of coffee with milk (NOT ON THE US PLAN) and a trip to Berkeley Bowl and $132.00 later including vitamins and supplements.
I made the Ultra Broth- Very expensive vegetarian broth, but did it taste good.
I spend an additional $75.00 at Costco. Frozen berry fruit, Protein Powder and blueberries.
I made a protein shake- but added Almond butter, KIWI and the almond milk - Loved it!
Made it through the day and I am going into the evening feeling good and not hungry. I have set my alarm clock to get up tomorrow and make the two protein shakes for the 2 day. I only had 1 today.
Passed the bathroom check - so I am good to go!
