Day 6:  Thursday, 23rd May, 2013

Awoke at 6.30ish after another good night's sleep.  I can't believe that I am sleeping so well.  I am not having broken nights, sleeplessness, bad dreams or nightmares.  Another plus.

I am feeling well and am already noticing and increase in vitality and energy.  The swelling from hospital has nearly gone. 

At lunchtime, I made a colourful salad from mixed salad leaves, pineapple & avocado dressed with a little oil and lemon juice.  I ate this with two small boiled eggs, which were gifted to me by a friend who's eggs are 'so free range, that the chickens roost in trees'.  Beautiful.  I am really missing pepper on my food though, especially on eggs.

Evening meal was wild, Alaskan salmon, baked in the oven with lemon juice, served with purple sprouting broccoli and some sliced green beans (all home-grown) from the freezer.  I also cooked some mixed grains: wild rice, long-grain rice, quinoa and bulgar.  I shall use the remainder of this for another salad tomorrow, I expect.  A small bowl of salted popcorn was a treat this evening.  Still under 1,000 calories for day.  I could not have eaten any more without feeling too full.
