Day 60 - 2 Months! Wow!

OK.. so this is my 2 month anniversary! :)

While I haven't done everything absolutely perfectly, I must be doing something right, because overall I'm feeling much better than before.

Right now I don't have any muscle spasms at all. I don't have any joint pain, particularly in my ankle anymore. Last night I slept without moving (probably the first time ever)... (But I did take my supplements right before sleeping, so I think I'm going to try that from now on)....

There are still some issues.. certain pains and aches.. but way better than before.. going up for the third month! Hurray!

Breakfast is 2 boiled eggs, keema, humous, and 1/2 brown pita, tea with little milk.... and much later Xocai X Power Square....

More Xocai throughout the day.. I've been craving it for some reason!

Lunch is meat with tomato sauce and brown roti. Didn't even eat it all.

Dinner before the movies is 1/2 Ruby Tuesday burger, with 1/2 baked potato (mostly skin), and salad with a tiny but of dressing. A small amount of potato salad, and iced tea. YUMMY!

All supplements were taken with dinner.

Day 59 - Slept it OFF!

Yeah, it's true, I slept it off... I really couldn't stay awake.. I had to go out with some people later, and I was absolutely dead. went home, did a few emails, and crashed, big time! Can't do that again.. so not worth it!

Today we are going out to Ruby Tuesday for a free breakfast that the manager gave us.. so YAY. but certainly will eat carefully.

OK.. great breakfast at Ruby Tuesday.. don't miss it, at Shaab!

STeak and Eggs with biscuits, square potatoes, and iced tea, of course.. :)

Later Kubba burghul.

For dinner a McD's burger with no bun or anything, and a chicken salad with light dressing.. good enough to be able to take my supplements :)

Day 58 - Life Goes On

Life sometimes isn't easy and things don't go the way we want.. but life goes on.. and we either go with it, or drown.. I'm going with it...

Breakfast was 2 eggs and a piece of toast..

second breakfast :) was eggs with potato and watermelon with iced tea.

Lunch is OFF;;;;;;;Kuwaiti food and Ayam Awal.. I took out my friends.. chicken and rice, margoog, gaboot, and worse.. made me feel like crap.. so we know it's not good to eat white rice.. I should have eaten everything but not white flour and white rice.. I knew that! :)


Thursday, January 27, 2011

Xocai chocolate, natch!!!!!!

Had some chicken and lamb shawarma, felafel with humous, tea with a tiny bit of milk, and brown chapati without oil. 1/2 glass of kefir.

Slept well last night, although plenty of tossing going on still..

Sunday, January 23, 2011

Day 53 - Lost Sleep

Last night I slept but tossed and turned most of the night. That is the type of insomnia that is mentioned in my hair analysis.. absolutely correct... so I don't know why I'm getting those symptoms still.. sometimes it's good and sometimes not, but, now that I think about it, I did eat those cupcakes... that must be the problem, or something similar... will have to watch that.. I need to have a great cupcake recipe with whole wheat to eat!!!!! with lots of yummy looking frosting :)

Breakfast today is omelet (looks like maybe 4 eggs), 1/2 pita, homous, tea with a bit of milk.

Will take supplements now.

Xocai for cravings that have kicked in probably due to those nasty but delicious mini cupcakes.. but I'll tell you what.. Xocai chocolate is really the only one worth eating anymore... I was forced to put a teeny bit of chocolate covered cranberry and raisin in my mouth yesterday, and, frankly, they just don't do it anymore.. It's got to be dark, healthful, super high in antioxidants, XOCAI for me!

Early lunch is brown rice with lamb and tabbouleh... YUMMY :)
Later I had more Xocai.. and dinner was a chicken breast grilled tandoori style with some sauteed squash, carrots, and cauliflower.

1/2 glass of kefir later.


Saturday, January 22, 2011

Day 52 - Getting Into It

Today I had 2 scrambled eggs and a sourdough toast with sesame seeds for breakfast.

All supplements taken except for Magna B6, because I forgot it in the car, so I will take it later. :)

Later I had my second breakfast, early lunch... omelet with mushrooms, green and red peppers, sausage, and spinach with a couple French fries, watermelon and iced tea.

Dinner is 1/2 a sandwich with chicken, lettuce, tomato, brown ciabatta, iced tea, salad with balsamic vinegar, and 3 mini cupcakes from The Chocolate Bar.

I have been thinking about those for like 3 days now, so I need to get it out of my system. :) :)

Later some tea with milk (a tiny bit)


Friday, January 21, 2011

Day 51 - Feeling Good!

OK.. today is another day in the life of the hair analysis diet :)

I am going out later for brunch, so this is going to tide me over for sure :)

Lunch is iced tea with chicken bbq salad and potato skins with the cheese and bacon removed... Fridays :)

After that all I had later was kubba burghul (1 order this time!) :)


Thursday, January 20, 2011

Day 50!!!! Hair Analysis Diet

Well... today is the big 5 - 0... Again.. still working it, and it's still working....I can't do another test before at least probably another month or so.. I still have issues too, but not many. Most of my problems are gone or disappearing, which is wonderful and amazing. In fact, I can't wait to do my test again! :)

Breakfast is 3 eggs in an omelet with a little tomato and pepper... 1/2 brown pita, tea with a teeny bit of milk, and humous. Much better this way.. feels super healthful!

All supplements taken.

Lunch is an order of kubba burghul and another :) :)

Had iced tea and wings later.

Dinner is a delish bbq chicken salad and fajitas (chicken and steak) at chilies with a tiny bit of sour cream and avocado! :) Iced tea again, of course!

OH! And I almost forgot that we shared a chocolate molten :) :)

Day 49 - Visible Horizons

Day 49! Wow ... I just got the results of everyone's hair tests today.. some surprises.. why am I the only person who can't eat shrimp??????

Well... I had a delish balanced breakfast.... 3/4 brown pita with 2 fried eggs and one small omelet with a tiny bit of cheese (not my choice)... and humous... with tea and milk (tiny bit)---

A handful of natural organic potato chips.

Kubba burghul later on...

Lots of pumpkin seeds.

Dinner is a little chicken shawarma, a little kabab, and a chicken breast from KFC.. super bad choice but....


Tuesday, January 18, 2011

Day 48 - I can't believe it!

I can hardly believe that I have been doing this dietary program for this long. I don't feel tired of it at all. In fact, I think I feel invigorated, more than anything.

This is a lifestyle change that anyone can do, and it's just a matter of rethinking and having some gumption and reserve....

Actually, at this point, I'm quite sure that there is no way that I would ever be able to drink soft drinks again... no way.

Also, I'm quite sure that white bread will never pass my lips again, nor white flour breading, batter, or anything else like that... greasy, oily fried things either, unless they are made with oils I agree with, or eggs, maybe... but nothing deep fried.

I have also gotten to the point where hotdogs, bologna, etc., seem disgusting to me, so I don't think I'll be eating any of those things again either.

I do need to add more fruit and vegetables in though, I don't eat enough of these I think because they aren't convenient enough. But, I need them, so I am going to have to make a conscious effort to add them in more.

Breakfast was 3 boiled eggs, 1/2 brown pita, 1 piece of brown sliced bread, humous, fava beans, and tea with milk. Wow!

Supplements taken.... Xocai X Power Squares taken!

I ate a chicken breast from KFC at lunch, and some xocai chocolate.. I was starving and still was after..

Later had some flowering tea and cereal with milk.. I wish there was a solution to the milk thing.

1/2 glass kefir, too.

Pumpkin seeds into the night...




On to the day!!! Hurray!

Monday, January 17, 2011

Day 47 of the Amazing Hair Analysis Diet of the Universe!

I had a 1/2 glass of kefir this morning upon waking up. I didn't eat properly yesterday and felt the effects. I need veggies and fruit every day I think.

I also need to carry my supplements around with me for sure, because I'm not home long enough to take them with food every time.
1 brown pita, 2 fried eggs, labna (dairy, probably shouldn't have), humous, keema (Yummy) 1 tiny carrot stick, a couple of tiny black olives, and a piece of brown sliced bread. A cup of tea with a little milk to slush it down.

Yummy! I'm super full, and all is well with the world :)

Early lunch is brown rice with chicken and veggie stew. Really delish and just what I wanted!

Early dinner was steak and lobster, with baked potato (just the outside), and a little butter, with sauteed mushrooms and iced tea. YUMMMMMMMMMMMM!

Later at night a little scrambled egg, two pieces of multigrain brown bread, tea with milk, and a little jam and feta. I wasn't even hungry, but other people were and wanted me to eat with them.. doesn't really matter though, since it's all part of the diet anyway :) YAY!!!


Sunday, January 16, 2011

Day 46! Wow!

I can't believe that I have gotten to this point.

I have mostly followed the diet throughout this time, with a couple rare treats.

I am happy with my results, although I still have body pain, my joint pain is mostly gone.

I'm not getting the muscle cramps that I used to get before, which is great.

YAY!

Breakfast was 2 fried eggs, with humous, two very small carrot sticks, 1 piece of brown sliced bread, and 1/2 brown pita. 1/4 brown sandwich with bologna and cheese, and tea with milk.

I have noticed that I'm probably getting a wee bit too much dairy, although the report said I could have it 2 or 3 times a week, and when I have it I only have a smidgeon.. but nevertheless, I'm going to watch it.

Two pieces of sourdough sesame bread. Which was a mistake without protein, but there wasn't anything to put with it.

Had a wholewheat arais (a bread thing with meat inside that was good but I didn't finish it... and a couple pieces of Xocai gourmet healthy chocolate.


Saturday, January 15, 2011

Day 45 - It's a Beautiful Rainy Day!

Breakfast is steak, one fried eggs, hot tea with a smidge of cold milk, and hash browns.. (the hash browns were not nice)... at Centerpoint.

Lunch is super late.. Chilis.. Turkey sandwich with tomato and lettuce, on a brown bun.. (didn't eat most of the bun.. too big)...

Delish quesadilla salad.. I didn't eat the quesadillas I swear!!!!!

But I did eat part of the brownie sundae that we got free for filling out the survey from Chilis! :) Oh, and I had one ton of iced tea!!!!! (no sugar or lemon, of course)...

Woke up feeling much better than yesterday.. seems like all the anesthetic has worn off.. YAY!

I had a banana first thing, and a Vit C chewy.. but I forgot all of the other supplements at home, so I'll have to have them later....

Breakfast is 2 boiled eggs, 1/2 brown pita, 1 piece of brown sliced bread, a spoonful of humous, and another of a strange lentil chick pea thing... water, tea with milk, and a couple sticks of carrot and cuke. Not bad, super yummy! YAY!

I had hot and sour soup for lunch and a piece of Xocai.

For dinner I had crab abd avocado Japanese salad at Sakura, and hammour sashimi (won't do that again! it wasn't nice)... and some soba noodles with scallops and chicken.. also not the best.

1 piece of Xocai.


Wednesday, January 12, 2011

Day 42 Hair Analysis Rocks!

Today I am not going to be able to eat anything until at night, because I have to fast for this dumb test I have to have at 4:30.

So, I had to drink some gross medicine and all I will be able to have all day is more gross medicine and water. Bummer! But what to do?

Test done.. wasn't THAT bad, but the anesthetic made me sooooo nauseated!!!!

When I could get my head off the pillow, I ate scrambled eggs, dark multigrain toast and tea with milk.. with no sugar strawberry jam. That certainly made me feel a lot better... but the anesthetic lasted all night. BLAH


Tuesday, January 11, 2011

Day 41 - Keep On Keeping On

Today started off slowly.. I ate at work.. 2 fried eggs, homous, brown bread and brown pita, cuke and carrot sticks, 2 mini black olives, keema, and water.

Day 39 - Join The Group!

Hey... you know 6 more people have sent hair for hair analysis last night. They are on their way to the USA for testing. It's so exciting seeing other people giving it a go to get their health on track.

I feel so blessed that I found this amazing health aid! I just feel the need to share it with everyone I know, in fact, everyone in the world!!!!!

It's an incredible way to find out just what is going on with your health, and you discover things that you just won't find out with blood tests, etc. It is a most important tool to getting your health in order.

So, I start my day out today imploring everyone to get your hair tested and see just what your body is all about. Then and only then can you really get into optimal health!

Xocai X Power Squares is an early morning snack, along with my supplements. :)

Today breakfast was a little strange.. but this is what was available.. I think I'm going to eat at home from now on! :)

Humous, humous beans with hot homous, brown bread sandwich with bologna and cheese, olives, cukes and carrots, more brown bread, and a strange omelet with veg. Not my fave :)
