Day 4 - Thursday 4th December 2008


Feeling less tired today and for the first time in weeks I am not wearing the wrist brace I normally wear for my arthritis. Will not at this early stage put it down to the change of diet, because the extra pain I do experience in the wrist that causes me to wear it, does come and go quite often.
Didn't eat as many dried fruits and nuts today, only the leftovers from yesterday. Will have to ensure I have fresh fruit for the sweet tooth instead.
Have definately eaten less than yesterday and am managing okay.
Today I ate:
2 bananas
Medium bowl of watermelon
Salad - Lettuce, tomato, cucumber, celery, carrots
Large handful of mixture of: almonds, sunflower seeds, pepitas, dates, sultanas.
For dinner I will have a couple of lettuce leaves topped with avocado, tomato, grated carrot, cucumber, snowpea sprouts, bok choy.
Last nights dinner wasn't bad. The main problem that I encountered was because I didn't have a blender the almonds for the sauce did not mush up and go creamy like they are suppose to. Finely chopping nuts and putting them in a milkshake maker with the other ingredients, didn't quite work (not at all actually).
Mental note - buy a blender very soon.
