3 Day Detox Cleanse - Day One

2/25/2014

0 Comments

 
My husband Lewis and I started the 3 day detox cleanse yesterday. Here is a recap of how our first day went. We started our morning with the green tea Detox drink. I personally love green tea (pomegranate green tea is my favorite).  I enjoyed my cup however my hubby isn't very fond of tea and didn't care for it much. Luckily we had cut coffee out of our diets two weeks ago. I think that made it a tad easier.
Breakfast

Breakfast was delicious and very easy to consume. You can't go wrong with strawberries and bananas :)

By mid morning the hunger was setting in as we usually have a mid snack with the kids. It was so tempting to just grab a bite with them. We didn't, we are sticking with this so we can be healthier.

Lunch

This drink made me nervous and rightfully so it was so hard to get down! Lewis and I were both gagging. It was not yummy. It was the texture that made it so hard to tolerate. Lewis was able to finish his whole drink but I was only able to get half of it down.

The hardest part of the day was after trying to force down some of the lunch drink we had to run to an appointment driving past so many places with food. And since we are very conscious of our driving and spending on gas we had no choice but to go grocery shopping while in town. That was rough! Everything looked good even things I wouldn't normally eat.

Snack
We enjoyed the breakfast drink for our snack.
Dinner

I really thought this one was going to be good but it was way to spicy for me and I love spicy!! I was only able to drink about a fourth of it, but honestly I wasn't feeling that hungry either. (well expect for when I was making the kids supper) Lewis again finished the whole drink.

Part of the cleanse is to take a detox bath. I grabbed a good book (Handmade Market Place). It was so nice to take the time to actually slow down for a change.

Later that evening after the kids were all in bed the craving did set in. Oh how I wanted to chew something. And the bag of chips in the cupboard were calling out to me. lol. I was honestly thinking of quitting at this point, but hubby kept encouraging me so I did not give in to all the cravings.

*Fyi: raspberries & Celery were to try to make the drinks look more tasty we did not consume them lol. No chewing food for 3 days.
