Anna's Get Healthy Now Diet

This past week I have a sinus infection. This is sooooo frustrating because it breaks my 18 month streak of no illness. I thought I was immune from sickness. But now I have been sick for a week and it is showing no signs of improvement.

I think it is my body telling me to tone it down a bit. I had been feeling mentally drained for some time but stopped listening to my body. I recently had a week of high mileage which included no rest days and crossfit workouts 3 times in that week and I think maybe that was a bit too much. The Bruny Island Ultra is on in 2 weeks and I don't want to be sick for that so as of yesterday I am on Anna's Get Healthy Now Diet.

The diet includes fruit, vegies, pulses, nuts, seeds, rice and quinoa.

It does not include processed food, ice cream or chocolate :(

The simplicity of it means my preparing/cooking/washing is even easier before (and for the record, I refuse to cook anything that takes more than 10 mins and involves more than 1 dish to wash up). I've been having lots of salads and mono fruit meals which is so yummo. I am hoping it will send me back on the path of good health.

  1. I hope it works for you and you get better very soon. BTW, what's 'pulses'?

  2. Pulses are things like beans and lentils. Some people don't put them in the 'vegie' catagory and there's a school of thought they're not good for you. I'm not sure where I stand on the issue.
