So, a little about the cleanse I am doing...
It is based on the book Cleanse by Alejandro Junger who is a cardiologist. He advocates a whole foods diet with a majority of it being raw. For two meals a deal I have a smoothie and for the other I have a regular meal. There are plenty of foods that I must avoid: grapes, oranges, strawberries, bananas, red meat, dairy products, wheat, sugar, etc.
But the moral of the precleanse is I have had so much E.N.E.R.G.Y it is amazing. I have always had an obsession with sweets, but it is gone. I made cookies on Saturday, they are now gone, but I did not eat a single one on Sunday or Monday (I didn't eat them all on Saturday either). I have been able to adhere to the guidelines quite well, if I do say so myself. The one exception is that I need more food than the smoothie recipes call for. Since snacking is allowed, I have just been adding some more fruit or veggies into the smoothie.
Well, that is my update for today, I now have to go clean up the mess I made with my dinner :).
