Eating rice cakes is like chewing on a foam coffee cup, only less filling.

Did I really say I would turn macro for 40 days?!? What was I thinking!? I need to be locked up ~ preferably in a kitchen stocked with more than brown rice, leafy greens and colourful, cruciferous veggies. Argh!!
What!? Did you think that the life of newbie macro was as easy as pie? [Oh no, do not think of pie! Especially crust made with lard and white flour ~ Gah!] Deep breathes. Why are we doing this, Mikaela? To strip away our addictions [caffeine, sugar, white flour]. To obtain balanced energy. To re-center our energy and bring our focus back on the essentials of life: faith, creativity, relationships.
I am not doing a pure brown rice fast ~ that would be madness when I have a full social schedule. But the past two days I’ve eaten nothing but brown rice with leftover pesto and some brown rice bread with honey. Woo! Time for some more greens, mushrooms and onions to go with it!
And some extra sleep ~ I am still trying to get back my lost “spring” hour!
Oremus pro invicem,
~ Mikaela
