Day 1

Well, I told myself that as soon as I got my materials for my cleanse in the mail, I would start the next day. Of course that day was New Year's Eve...not the most fun!! BUT...I did it! We went to some friends house and they had Cheesecake, quiches, chips and dip, hot dogs, taquitoes, did I mention cheesecake? Anyway, I didn't have anything but my water. It was complete torture!! I enjoy eating...a lot! But, I did it. I can't say honestly if I feel any different yet because, we stayed up way too late and I'm exhausted. I can say that the smoothies are yummier than I thought they would be. My kids love them too. I have made, vanilla smoothie with a few strawberries, spinach, carrots, and more spinach. And a chocolate one with spinach, a couple grapes, cauliflower, carrots, and a little bit of broccoli. They were great!! The detox tea, I don't like....at all...but I'm told that that starts to taste better after a few days and you get rid of a bunch of the toxins. I hope so. It's got a bitter aftertaste and that's what I'm told is gone in a few days. We'll see. It's not a lot so it's drinkable. As far as my meals it isn't hard to stay away from dairy and bread...we can't really have bread anyway. It's the sugar that's killing me. I would really, really like a big candy bar right now!!!

  1. Sounds like it is going well, Heather. I am SO impressed that you were able to stick with your plan even at the New Year's Eve party! Would you be willing to post your Smoothie recipes? They sound delicious, as well as healthy.
