Day Two Pre-Cleanse

Day one continued.

Yesterday was day two of my pre-cleanse stage. Let me go back a bit to day one because when I blogged about day one it was rather early in the morning and well a lot has happened since then. Around 4pm my husband came home and said that he had had a raging headache all day. I had not gotten a headache...until...about 7pm. Then it hit me too. The headache was so awful it was debilitating! I couldn't do anything. It was so bad I was getting nauseated. I tried to fend it off with another "snack" thinking it was because I needed something in my system but that didn't help. Finally we took some aspirin and went to bed. In the morning we were both relieved to NOT have headaches. Day one was hard.

Day Two

Day two started out good, no headaches or issues...yet. As the day went on and it was time for our healthy lunch I started to feel a little cramping. I ignored it at first thinking it was nothing but then they got worse and it hit me. I ran to the restroom and cleansed myself, a lot. Yes fun for the second day is the runs. We ate our healthy lunch and promptly got rid of it too. All day long we tanked up on water hoping not to get dehydrated from our restroom visits. We did get small but manageable headaches at the end of the day but it was not bad enough to take anything for it. Marg, our support guide, called and as I told her about our headaches and bathroom breaks she informed me that the headaches were from the toxins in my body being flushed out. She reminded me that this was not a colon cleansing but a cellular cleansing and that toxins were removed from the body by many means. I was glad by the end of the day not to be running to the bathroom anymore but I couldn't help but think about what Marg had said. I was being cleansed on a cellular level and that was something I didn't think about when I started. Admittedly when I started I only looked at the wonderful side effect of weight loss but now I am glad to think that I am making by body stronger from the inside out.

Day 6 Shake Day

This is day six and although there wasn't anything really eventful about the day there are updates to be shared. My husband and I have noticed that we are sleeping better and waking up with fewer aches and pains and issues. Now, we are not sure if that's because of the weight loss or the cleansing that we are going through. Also, I have noticed that while studying for my LSAT I have more focus and ability to analyze better. My exercise stamina is better. I did workout again at the gym but I am winding down. I am only doing 45 minutes on the elliptical and 30 minutes walking. No extra bike ride tonight. All in all, we are getting used to the program and feel that we have benefited from it. We are also going to continue try to reach our respective goal weight. Our next purchase will be the 30 program which we will share. Since it cost $200+ each we are trying save money by just splitting it. I will keep you posted and on Tuesday of next week (August 16th) I will post our 9 day pr...

Isn't this over yet?!

Sometimes I just want to scream! It feels like the last 2 and half years have just taken a crap on me and my family and there seems no end in sight.  Oh let's recap shall we... 2016 was my son's first open heart surgery followed by a plethora of doctor's appointments and other surgeries. I thought it was over by the end of the year and took the advice of Whitney Houston and friends when I exhaled. However, my fun filled days were not over yet and I found myself dumbfounded by the turn of events in my life.  2017 started out fine...well not really. January brought us the bad news that our black Lab Molly Mae had cancer. It was in her bones and basically there was nothing to do but love her.  So, that's what we did. We took her home and loved her. Then, in April we were informed that my son needed to have another open heart surgery because the tissue valve that they put in was not performing the way that they thought that it would and now needed ...

Nail Journal Update

No, my five wonderful readers, I have not forgotten about you. I went camping! Yes, yours truly went into the woods and camped. Actually I drove through the woods to a cabin. But before you say that's not real camping. Let me elaborate. It was a one room cabin, no running electricity, no running water, no restroom. See...that is camping.  And before you say "ewww" there was an outhouse down the dirt road for us to use. Now you can say ew.  Really it wasn't so bad.  We camped out in Hermit Park by Estes Park Colorado .  So we were out there for 4 nights, 5 days. That's a lot when you have to ration water, keep your own food cold in the cooler (which this wasn't too hard since there was still snow on the ground) and figure out lighting at night. Now in all fairness, the cabin had propane lighting and a stove with a heater, Not too bad.  Why am I telling you this and what does this have to do with nails? I'll tell you.  As you ...
