Cycle 2 Menu & Grocery List

YOU DID IT! We just completed the first seventeen day cycle! & with all of your success I hope you are motivated to continue and start the second seventeen day cycle! In cycle 2 we are adding healthy natural starches. The book says to have these starches (sweet potato, chickpeas, black beans) before 2:00PM ... but we may fiddle with this a little some days! Be sure to review the new Cycle 2 allowed foods : HERE 

*now that you know the basics and the principles you have the tools to create and change my menu to better fit you! If you don't like the hot lemon water in the morning ... exchange it for one glass (8-12oz) of water first thing in the morning. If you don't like cauliflower ... exchange it for another cleansing vegetable or newly allowed natural starch like quinoa or beans.

Monday: Stuffed Sweet Potato

                ½ Sweet potato loaded with steamed broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, & shredded chicken
