After the Ultimate Reset

My Ultimate Reset journey ended rather abruptly, as I knew it would. I made some attempt to still eat minimal meat and carbs, but still found myself literally sick to my stomach due to the change. Eye opening how much better the body functions when nourished properly. And how quickly toxins upset that balance.

I've been surprised that when I get lured by junk I actually find myself wanting the Alkalize supplement as a cleanser.

We've also mixed more vegan dishes into our regular meal planning; recently getting a vegan slow cooker book. Eating more tempeh, which we learned that we liked during the last Reset. Finding additional ways to prepare it. I always felt that I couldn't be a vegan due to the lack of cheese and dairy in general. However, we rarely eat dairy anymore. I've become a fan of various other "milks" from soy to almond (my favorite) to coconut to rice. I still enjoy cheese, but more as an accent or treat than a dietary staple. What I really can't handle about the vegan diet is the lack of eggs and honey. This is especially true since I get farm fresh eggs from a guy at work. Nothing beats local fresh eggs and local fresh honey!

Nutrition remains a journey. The Ultimate Reset is a good travel guide.

Oh yeah, the AFTER picture:
