Purification Day 5: Day of Temptation

I had to stare at these puppies all day.
Today was my first day at work since the purification started and let me tell you, it was a struggle. I work at a snack stand at a pool, so we sell burgers, cheese fries, hot dogs, funnel cake, (aka everything I want to eat).
The train was stopping at temptation station and I wanted to get off.
BUT, I made it through the day without eating a single one of those items, even though I was drooling as I handed customers their food and as I watched everyone eat their lunch.

I also had a breakthrough, I actually liked both of the shakes I made for the day and I didn't feel like I was forcing them down my throat. Hooray!

I also got back into the ab routine and did 30 minutes of abdominal workouts from Blogilates. Obsessed, definitely check out those videos.

Hopefully I can stay just as strong all of the other days that I work.

Here were my meals for the day:

Breakfast: Yellow Monster Shake
- 1 banana
- a few slices of mango
- a few chunks of pineapple
- water
- 2 tbs of SP Complete
- 2 tbs of Whey Pro Complete
- 1 tbs of whole food fiber

(Yum! I called it the yellow monster because of the yellow fruit I put in it. Unfortunately, the whole food fiber powder I put in it turned it red, so it looked like all of the other shakes I've made for breakfast.)

Lunch: Banana-Spinach Shake
- 1 banana
- 1 cup of spinach
- water & crushed ice
- 2 tbs of SP Complete
- 2 tbs of Whey Pro Complete

(This sounds gross but it tasted really good! I couldn't really taste the spinach in the shake so it was basically a banana shake which is good because I'm getting more vegetables in without tasting them.)

Dinner: Salad
- spring mix & arugula
- grape tomatoes
- avocado
- roasted beats
- mushrooms
- cucumbers
- Dressing: leftover homemade raspberry vinaigrette from last night

(Dreaming of chicken. Only 6 more days till I can have chicken and fish!)
