21 Day Sugar Detox Day 5

Day 4, everything I said about you I take back.  Yesterday afternoon was rough.  Maybe it was my fault and perhaps I did not consume enough carb rich vegetables (I did not eat sweet potato yesterday) but I was shaky, weak, lethargic, hungry--not fun.  I'm thinking the combination of the sugar detoxification from my body and being pregnant didn't work with the amount and type of food I ate yesterday.

Day 5 started with a new approach and so far so good! 

As a reminder, I am Level 2 with energy modifications.

I am up for my first challenge tomorrow evening.  We are going to a friend's house for dinner and I hope there are a few selections that I can make work with the 21 Day Sugar Detox.
