Phase 1 requires you to limit all grains and carbs and sugars. The intent is to rid your body of all toxins and rebalance the body. This is quite a tricky stage and a lot of people do tend to feel ill during this first week due to their body detoxifying. Many say its a lot like flu symptons. However, I have been off of wheat for a while and been trying to lessen my sugar intake so we will see how we will feel through it all.
- Day 1- Breakfast was an omelette with peppers and onions followed by Chicken Soup (Jewish recipe) for lunch. Made a big batch of that for the next day. Dinner was a Moussaka with minced lamb and layered aubergines in a tomato sauce. I used yoghurt and eggs to set the top and some hard goats cheese which I found in Asda. Thought it was going to be really hard but actually I haven't been starving. God seems to be helping us through it because I'm pretty sure we couldn't do it otherwise.
- Day 2 - Fried eggs with mushrooms and tomatoes for breakfast followed the remains of the chicken soup for lunch. In the evening we had a steak with my own spicy carrot chips. The carrots were parboiled then rubbed in oil and seasoning and roasted, must admit I preferred them to normal chips. Still seems to be fairly easy, no hunger pangs, so all is good. No improvement in my health as of yet though.
- Day 3 - We got up too late for breakfast this morning, as I hadn't been sleeping very well, I found that this morning I could lay in and fall asleep without feeling sick, I wonder? Made a Chilli con carne without beans for lunch, which did upset my stomach slightly, think its the tomato sauce. Dinner was our own homemade Chicken Kievs stuffed with garlic butter and roasted with more carrot and swede spicy chips this time.
