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.

It's been three months....

Okay it's been three months since I started this journey. I had decided to stop being a slave to my fake nails and go all natural. For better or worse, I wanted to stop putting so many chemicals in and on my body and just let nature take it's course. Having said that, I knew I was in for a rough ride. For starters, I have been wearing solar/acrylic nails since I was sixteen years old. I now have a 16 year old daughter of my own, so you do the math...I will not help.  Anyway, The first two months were hard. My nails were so thin and weak that I could actually bend what little nail I had backwards without pain. So I cut my nails down to the quick and decided to start new. I first started with using Sally Hansen's Hard as Wraps but found out that they have formaldehyde in it. So I changed. I over to Nail-Aid's Keratin and 3 Minute Artificial. It is made in America and does not use formaldehyde and does NOT test on animals.  So, I saw little to no improvement...

Isagenix

As I was flipping though my June 2011 copy of Natural Health, I came across an advertisement for Isagenix. Isagenix is a "nutritional cleansing" product that has a side effect of weight loss. I have cleansed in the past and have usually purchased the kit from Walmart or Walgreen's for $25 bucks or so. Now I have always felt better after cleansing my system but weight loss was never a significant side effect. True, Ron White does have something when he asks in one of his shows "Have you ever taken a crap so big your pants fit better?" I hate to admit that when I feel full of myself that I am always happy to puck out $25 from my wallet and buy a cleansing kit. I have been struggling with my weight since I was in high school and have tried everything from Aerobics to Zumba to get fit along with every trendy diet; so when I heard of a cleansing product with a weight loss side effect I was very interested. I looked it up on the Internet and found on Y...

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 ...
