Cleanse is over

The Cleanse ended Last Friday 11/04/05 and I'm cool nothing spectacular has happened Just a whole bunch of breaking out and I think the water drinking has basically got me back to regular BM's. I'm doing about 40% better with portion control.

`I am so proud of myself my hubby and I and the kids went to Golden Corral to get something to eat after my son's playoff game saturday and I did so good it was unbelievable. I had a huge salad with no meat ( I use mushrooms as meat it's the closest tasting thing to me lol). I then had some jalapeno poppers and brocolli, and Mac n Cheese. I grabbed a piece of cheese pizza but for some odd reason it smelled like fresh throwup (tmi i know sorry) and I couldn't eat it I was nauseous just smelling it lol. I drunk tea and water and when I took my son to get dessert I was basically mentally making myself want to eat dessert when I was plainly full. Then as I walked past all of those, cakes, cookies, candy and dessert. I heard a little voice clear as day say..." IS it really worth it?" And I though it over and really it wasn't, I had enought time to analyze and really think about it. And kept on walking. Normally I'da gotten a piece of carrot cake, german chocolate cake and whatever else but honestly I wasn't hungry and the food on that stand didn't even tempt me. I was so excited I told my DH when I sat down about my victory :D He was proud of me and he's lately been talking about buying more fish for the house. I told him that I haven't even been eating fish, not to worry about me I'm cool and he said no HE wants to get the fish because he's getting tired of chicken .......LOL I was shocked. My family doesn't eat alot of pork or beef they really eat chicken, fish and turkey more or less. So when he said that I was shocked I guess this new way of eating is effecting him too lol.

I took this girl named Black pearl's recipe for jerk chicken and made it for my family and they LOVED it! I'm so happy. I'll post the ingredients and if anyone wants to make it feel free the jerk sauce tasted really good as I was making it.

Too bad I don't eat meat but I didn't want any anyway. I attribute that to the Lord people because it's so weird I have absolutely no inkling of a taste for meat AT ALL. I mean even eating vegan I don't even have a want to try eating soy or veggie burgers, ot any kind of vegan versions of foods with meat. I have no taste for these types of food whatsoever, It's really weird. I feel like whats the point of going vegan if your just gonna eat something that resembles what you gave up unless you really want that meat that you gave up? I guess when people are transistioning I can see eating meat alternatives to get used to not eating meat. Anyways I'm doing pretty good with it.

God has been revealing so much to me I'm just waiting on and asking what to do with all of this word that has been given and revelation that I'm seeing during this time of consecration and prayer. Yall this is more of an exciting spiritual journey but nonetheless I love the Lord so much for direction. God has delivered me from alot of things and I know so because when I sleep the enemy tries to bring it into my dreams. I have nightmares about stuff that I never thought was a problem that I gave up just out of the sheer not wanting to do it anymore. God is real and his word is so true. I can't tell you guys all of the things that I have been delivered and released from yet because God is not allowed me to release it yet. BUt when I get a chance to give my testimony I surely will. You all be blessed on Jesus name and try making this jerk chicken recipe... according to my family it was the Bizomb. Here check it out:



Jerk Chicken

INGREDIENTS: 1 tbs. Ground allspice (didn't have this)
1 tbs. Dried thyme 1 1/2 tsp.
Cayenne pepper 1 1/2 tsp.
Freshly ground black pepper 1 1/2 tsp.
Ground sage 3/4 tsp.
Ground nutmeg (didn't have this)
3/4 tsp. Ground cinnamon
2 tbs. Salt
2 tbs. Garlic powder (substitued Garlic SAlt)
1 tbs. Sugar
1/4 cup Olive oil
1/4 cup Soy sauce
3/4 cup White vinegar (Used Apple cider vinegar cause that's all I had)
1/2 cup Orange juice (Didn't have this)
Juice of 1 lime (Used lemon juice)
1 Scotch bonnet pepper, seeded and finely chopped (used lemon pepper instead)
1 cup Chopped white onion
3 Green onions, finely chopped (didn't have this)
4 Chicken breasts (6 to 8 oz)trimmed of fat (used chicken legs and thighs with skin still on them..Ghetto I know lol)

DIRECTIONS: In a large bowl, combine the allspice, thyme, cayenne pepper, black pepper, sage, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt, garlic powder and sugar. With a wire whisk, slowly add the olive oil, soy sauce, vinegar, orange juice, and lime juice. Add the Scotch bonnet pepper, onion, and green onions and mix well. Add the chicken breasts, cover and marinate overnight for best results. Preheat an outdoor grill or oven and continue to baste chicken while cooking.
(what I did was mix all ingredients in a bowl and then stir them up and pour over the chicken......Didn't get a chance to marinate but next time I will.......Then I put the chicken in the oven and let it bake for about 50 mins- 65 mins and serve)
