Hi everyone. So I contemplated if I should blog about this subject or not. Some people may agree or disagree on the benefits of detoxing but, I decided to blog on this and post my experiences.
Back in October last year, I wanted to jump start my weight loss. I purchased a program that included a 6 day detox. Basically you drink smoothies (made of organic fruits and whey protein) 3 times a day and snack on soup. At the end of the 6 days, I lost 11 lbs! I thought I was going to gain it back, but I didn't..not even one 1lb. I felt great during it, and I had high energy. So I decided to do the detox again. And boy do I really need a cleanse of my liver and colon (sorry).
I started the detox 2 days ago, today is Day 3 and I am happy to report that I've lost 4.2 lbs so far!! I feel great and my bloating has dropped significantly. I am drinking about 1,500 calories a day and taking herbal supplements to aid in the cleansing, so I am not starving myself.
However, I do miss chewing food. I worked out on Sunday and I plan on doing it tonight.
Now if I can follow drinking all my meals for 6 days, why can't I eat clean for 6 days straight??

Hey Nana that's awesome! Could you post the smoothi recipes? I would love to try this! Still having trouble completely kicking coffee, although I am down to only one a day, but I think that replacing my afternoon coffee with a smoothie would be a good start. Also, do you bring your smoothie to work? If so, how do you keep it from spoiling or going bad?

Hi Araba, I posted a few f the smoothie recipes. Check it out. Yes I had to bring the smoothie in to work. I pre-made them at home and brought it in a stainless steel water bottle and put it in the fridge at work.
