Ingredients I'll use for my lemon detox. |
Well, I have been doing a great job of staying away from soda so far. I also wanted to stay away from chips, but I ate some corn chips Saturday during our mini-vacation at the coast. I failed there, but I won't beat myself up for it. I will keep staying away from them and the soda. I have not restricted my husband from his Pepsi, but I cringe when I see how much he consumes.
I'm concerned about my husband's consumption of soda.
I love my husband. I had already showed him how much sugar is in one can of Pepsi. He's used to drinking Pepsi while driving to keep him awake. Perhaps I could make tea, and we could drink that in our trips. That's something to think about.
Oh, I did not have a good start for the coast. Before leaving San Antonio, I asked my hubby to buy us fast food from Sonic. The popcorn chicken and tater tots were heavily laden with salt. I drank a strawberry slushie. That combination made me sick; I won't be eating that again.
Here I am thinking "out loud." After last week's anger, I am thinking about what I can do for the health of my family. I have the power to change what my family eats. I can keep the unhealthy, processed food out of our pantry and the fast food out of our mouths. I can put my foot down and say "No" to sugary cereals, too.
One thing that I still want to do is detox. I found an article that discusses lemon juice to help detox. Yesterday, I asked my husband to buy me some lemons so that I can try this idea. You can read the article here:
I wonder how I will be affected by it. Will I feel sick? Will I have to run to the bathroom? I have been afraid to try this for fear of theses situations. I've been wanting to try this when I don't have to leave home.
I'll let you all know next week how I do
with a lemon drink detox.
How about you, my readers? What drinks are you buying? What drinks are you buying during a vacation? Are you trying to buy the right during a vacation? Looking for the best foods is tough, but it is especially difficult while on a vacation. I hope you pay attention to your body when it tells you that a certain food is not working for you.
