Before I start this post, I just have to say that Chipolte is not reimbursing me in any way for my comments (although I would take a free burrito bowl if anyone is offering!). I just love this place and wanted to share :)
So anyway, I just LOVE Chipolte! They just get it...they understand what the consumer wants and how food (even fast food!) is meant to be. I love that their menu is so simple, yet you have lots of options to customize the handful of main choices. I love that the food is (mostly) healthy. I love that you can make responsible food choices and splurge a bit (hello guacamole and lime tortilla chips!). I love that everything is freshly made, organic and all-natural. I love that the meat comes from responsible farmers. And, I just love the taste!!!
Ok, end to my ode to Chipolte because it's just making me hungry :)
Day 4 was a
little different for the cleanse routine. I didn't have to take the
fiber drink (thank God!) and instead took two pro-biotic pills to aid
with digestion. I caved a little today and had some carbs (brown rice in
my burrito bowl and small helping of rice pilaf at dinner). I was
sooooo hungry!!! For me, this cleanse isn't about losing weight, but
helping my body be as healthy as it can be. However, I have noticed that
it has only taken three days to get rid of the extra Christmas weight I
put on in the previous two weeks.
