day 16: mixed up

today was one of those days where my mood and physical state seemed to swing like a pendulum.

i woke up with a mild headache which dissipated after a pint of water so i think i was dehydrated :(  made YummyHubby a big brunch frittata then went out shopping.

when i got home, after a bit of nudging from YummyHubby, i spent an hour doing yoga. i have a yoga dvd which is very basic poses and easy to follow. i always feel so wonderful afterwards and do that whole 'why don't i do this more often' thing... only to leave it a month before i do it again. today i was very impressed because i managed to do a whole sun salutation without pausing the video :) that's a first. 

today i had:

1l msm-lemon water

honey-coconut oil heart

maca-coconut oil round

1l orange-mango-papaya juice

0.75l canteloupe juice

2l water

herbal teas

well spotted. there's no green juice on that list. i just couldn't face it. and no superfoods. ditto. i went to the loo unaided so no enema today. i did skin brushing before my shower and an hour's yoga practice.

coconut oil hearts

i borrowed carrie's idea for these. we do have a silicone ice-cube tray but since she said the oil was corroding the silicone i bought a chocolate making mould instead. it has four different shapes so i can also make different combinations and track which are which. i softened the coconut butter a little (put the solid coconut butter into a bowl sat in another bowl with hot water in it) and did four plain coconut squares, four hearts with a drizzle of honey inbetween two layers, i blended some maca in for another four round shapes and the last four pyramid shapes were made by blending cacao powder into the coconut butter. these last four are for YummyHubby. it makes a nice change to eat something, that's for sure.

and now to prep for tomorrow morning. i find if i know what juices i'm making and get it all out, scrubbed and ready for chopping before i go to bed then it makes mornings a lot easier. 

have a fabulous week, y'all x
