I just finished my LAST lunch of the 7 day detox!! I am sooooo pumped! I can proudly say that I have had no salt, sugar (except the soy milk ordeal), chocolate, soda, red meat, processed carbs, or artificial sweeteners for 7 days!
The first few days (1 - 3) were rough, but I encourage anyone who is willing to try it to do it! You do feel great in the end and have all the energy that you need! The first few days I felt sluggish, but now I am doing just fine! [Disclaimer: As always, contact your physician or health care provider before any sudden change in diet... side effects include anything and everything from sneezing to death] :)
I would not condone using this method as a weight loss program diet (because I'm not a dietitian by any means) but I will tell you that I lost 5lbs! Hopefully those pounds stay off! lol
I am definitely going to eat healthier after this, I may replace a couple of meals a week with either just fruits or just veggies. I think a lot of what we eat we consume out of habit, but I am fully convinced that you can survive on just fruits and veggies for at least 3 days solid; and you can feel satisfied by only eating them. I had to keep reminding myself that I don't have to feel completely full or stuffed after a meal, food is supposed to be fuel, satisfaction is the goal.
Anyways, I hope you enjoyed reading about my 7 day adventure! Who knows what's coming up next! Stay tuned! If you have questions about the detox or suggestions let me know and I will be happy to respond!
