the cleanse.

so....
i am on day 2 of a 5 day cleanse.
the first two days you don't eat sugar, meat, flour or dairy.
then the next 3 days you consume 64 oz of a lemon juice, pure maple syrup and distilled water mixture.
along with a crazy amount of supplements.
and more distilled water, if you start to get hungry. (if hahaha)

so yesterday at the beginning of the day i felt great.
i was kinda at a loss of what to eat..which is sad. "what is there to eat thats not sugar flour meat or dairyyy???" sad. sad. sad.
then at the end of the day...i had the worst headache and felt like i was literally dying for some sugar.
i knew getting off of sugar was going to be the hardest thing for me.
i wasn't hungry at all. even though all i was really eating was fruits/veggies/nuts and the supplements.
all those fiber supplements filled me up!
in fact..i felt full most of the day..and went to bed feeling water logged...and desperate for sleep to get rid of the pounding headache.

this morning..i am hungry..but really, not too bad.
i'll probably have an apple with PB to help get the pills down.

i am also planning on working out at my normal pace this whole week..
supposedly, you're supposed to have more energy..so i'm ready to drop some weight!
i am doing this to put me over the "hump" of that last 5 lbs that are really beginning to bug.
but also..since i went to Brazil..i have felt like i needed to cleanse my whole system, and get myself off sugar and flour mostly for a few days, to rein back in my dependency.





so anyways..that's the scoop. the cleanse is called Herbalogica
and here's  a little preview of me in a few days hahahahah:
