Well, the last couple of days were an experiment in being loosely cleansing. I got to eat a salad with brown rice and tahini dressing today, and for dinner split an order of vegetarian pho with my daughter (Vietnemese soup with spices, fresh basil, mung sprouts, steamed broccoli and tofu, and rice noodles). I felt good about both of those food choices but, the tofu was on the edge of my boundary. I also had a small slice of my sons birthday cake, that my mother made special- gluten and dairy free. I didnt have the heart to turn it down. It was a delicious treat but even that small portion left me feeling a bit off this morning. It is good to know that I can be fluid enough to dabble, but not go tumbling off the wagon in a sugar crazed binging spree.
I have continued to run and do yoga and both these practices have been amazing! I have felt the best in both arenas, that I have felt in a long time. This alone makes the hard parts worth surviving!
