That huge Custard Apple was as much as I can handle in one sitting. It made me very, very full. I didn't eat for quite a while & skipped afternoon tea. For some reason the Custard Apple made me feel tired afterwards.

DAY 3
B - 2 oranges + 1C spinach
8 bananas (throughout the day)
L - a big salad with spinach, tomatoes, some avocado + 1 peach smoothie
D - 1 cantaloupe + 3 figs + 15 plums + 4 carrots
Oops, I forgot the stats: 2013 cal / 86/8/6.
Water - more than 3 litres
Exercise - about to do 20 minutes of yoga to cool down
Sleep - not enough last night (6h30), I thought I'd be grumpy but I spent a lovely day with my friends.
Feelings - I'm really happy to be part of this challenge. It's easier than the previous 30 days because I was on my own. I'm also trying to take it up a notch and to weigh what I eat. I also have only organic produce now.
However, I've got a mouth ulcer, which is very unusual for me. Probably due to lack of sleep? Any tips to cure it? Thanks!
Good evening, see you tomorrow!
Nan

Day 3 : 27th of march
Bfast : 700ML fresh orange juice + 1,2kilo of oranges
Lunch : 12 medium bananas
Dinner : 100g black berry + 250g organic dried figs + 350g lettuce
total calories (cronometer) : 2900
Water : 3L at least
Exercice : None, rest day
Sleep : 10h
Feelings : A lovely day although I was at work all day, the more I sleep, the better I feel (:
Hey everyone! Hope you're doing well!
Day 3:
Breakfast: 450g cherries, 100g dates
Lunch: 500g papaya, 100g raisins
Dinner: 700g papaya, 100g dates, blended with 20g desiccated coconut
Water: 3L or so
Exercise: Walked 6 miles
Sleep: 8 hours
Kcal: 1825 (would normally eat more)
86.5/9.8/3.6
Feelings: More resilient than usual.
Notes: Not an ideal day, commitments meant I had to eat a lot of "convenience" food that was around - dried fruit. But interestingly, still absolutely no hassle - I don't seem to be struggling at all. If it continues to be this easy, after the challenge I'll probably just tell myself to commit properly to it. It's definitely the internal chatter that I have with myself when deciding whether or not to eat cooked/ processed food that's the obstacle - now that it's not here for 30 days, it seems much easier.

Breakfast: 3 Fresh figs and 2 medjool dates

Dinner: Zucchini pasta with a tomato and celery dressing (This didn't go down well :( )
Total - roughly 1500
Exercise - 20 minute jog

Feelings - was sick all evening after eating my zucchini pasta, this happened before after eating zucchini so I'm pretty sure I must have some sort of intolerance :/ sad because it was so yummy!
