Total weight loss since day 1: 1 stone 1 lb
Jumped on the scales again and still 14 stone but I know 13 stone 13 lb can't escape me forever!
When I woke up this morning I headed straight for the dehydrator to check on my aubergines in tamari...the outcome was surprisingly tasty. The aubergines had a consistency of toast and the tamari gave them a marmite flavour...so it was like eating marmite on toast, yum!
After my 'gallon' of green smoothie (banana, papaya, pear and chard) I took myself off to the organic market in Malaga, where I bought a good variety of greens, consisting of: kale, chard, pak choi, spinach, lettuce and leafy beets. So now I have plenty of greens for my smoothies and salads. Also bought loads of bananas, a bag of avocadoes and a big box of tomatoes.
Where I got all my greens from: 'Familia Hevilla' (they are based in Coin).
The owner of the stall told me that if I bought a lot of items he will give me a good price, which I will do in the future as I found out that his farm is based in the next town to mine...super local, excellent!
After I exhausted myself shopping, I then headed into the centre of Malaga for a bite to eat.
Now I did go slightly off the raw track because I ordered vegetarian sushi, which is mostly raw apart from the rice the vegetables are wrapped in. All washed down with a cup of peppermint tea and a sparkling water (no beer or wine in sight...I was being very good!)
Sat outside in the Malaga sunshine. Please note the herbal tea!
Afterwards headed off to the hardware store to buy some wood to make a new raised bed for my garden, where I have already planted the seeds for 2 varieties of lettuce, spinach and chard. I'm looking forward to growing my own stuff.
At the moment it's 7.30 p.m. and I'm still not hungry so I won't bother with a salad tonight as there's no point eating for the sake of it...which I used to do out of boredom, especially if I was going to watch a movie. I'd sit there with a bag of crisps, chocolate or worse still, a pizza...and of course a bottle of wine. But, then I'd feel like crap in the morning instead of feeling great like I did today!
So I'm very happy with the way things are going.
Hasta pronto
