Recap of Night #6 - 8/8/30
I got more than 8 hours last night. I fell asleep on the couch around 9pm, woke up at 11:30 because my awesome Fiance called to see how i was doing (he was working). Never made it up to bed, i just camped out on the couch.. Woke up around 6:30 when he came home from work. I guess i got about 8.5-9 hours.. Felt great when i woke up, it helps when he makes me laugh at the stupidity of some of the people he deals with at night lol. I made the conscious decision to not continue the cleans a 2nd day.. so to the coffee pot i went!!! and it was the best cup of coffee i ever had!!!
Recap of Day 1 of the Shake-Cleanse
I had a headache a good portion of the day because of the "no coffee" thing, but it wasn't intolerable until after dinner, when it almost reached migraine stage.. not sure if that was because of the impending storm front or not. I took some Motrin and a hot shower and i was good to go.
As far as the food, or lack there-of, went i managed.. i wasn't comfortable, but then again most people aren't when they make a drastic food change.. i couldn't WAIT until dinner for the salad and chicken, that was by far the happiest moment of my life lol.. OK well not really, but you get the point. I had 4oz of grilled chicken which i seasoned with paprika, white pepper, and red cayenne pepper for a little bite, my salad consisted of Romaine, Tango, Radicchio, raw broccoli florets, and cucumbers with 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar and crushed garlic cloves for even more bite and flavor.. it was awesome!
i saved my 3rd shake for after dinner, because i know me, I'm always hungriest at night. i drank about 80oz of water too, only because i was trying to trick the hunger pang lol..
Over-all, i felt OK.. not enough energy to pull out a Kenpo workout, but I'll save that for sometime during he week (I'll work it in), the first day i lost 3lbs... and quite honestly i don't think i need another day. i wasn't looking to lose weight, i just wanted to flush my system, which i did. when you can see your almost 6 pack.. you know your good..
If you decided to take the 3 day shake-cleanse, please let me know how you did. I'm interested to hear other peoples' experiences with it!
