What happens past day 30... AND Polenta, Mushrooms & Greens Recipe

Have you ever been so focused on a goal - achieving a certain weight, a yoga pose, an academic goal, saving for a trip...and then you made it? What happened after you made it? Anything?

I was so excited to make it to Day 30 with my clean eating. And then what happened? Nothing.

I got to add garlic back into my diet but was essentially told to "carry on" as I have been with my diet for the next 30 days.

Hmph... You mean I need to do this for 60 days?

The question I have for myself now is, "Is this the way I am now to live my life? Gluten free? Dairy free? Free of eggplant, tomato and pepper?"

I'm not going to lie. I've been gloriously ANTSY to GET ON WITH IT! But perhaps this IS it...

More to be revealed...
