Here is a bullet point list of what I learned and experienced:
* My will power is strong.....
**So what is my excuse when I want to eat just to eat? DECISIONS...they are a constant challenge of our inner strength... the right decision really can be made when I want it to be.
* My joints feel amazing!
**I walked up and down stairs, jump roped, did lunges, step ups, burpees, etc and I feel awesome! It's a different kind of awesome though. I workout 5-6 days a week and get along really well with my knee but I truly feel younger! My knee feels "normal!"
* WATER
**I already knew that water or hydration is extremely important in our daily lives. What I didn't give hydration enough credit for, is how much more energy I have when I stay on top of drinking an appropriate amount of water.
**I could go back and look at my notes and on the days I felt sluggish...I was behind on my water consumption.
* WEIGHT LOSS
**Understand that my intention for doing this, was NOT to lose weight.
**Naturally, by eating clean for 21 days, I lost 7.4lbs! My stomach is now back to where I once was and my legs are more slender.
**I wish I would have taken measurements of Body Fat.
*My first meal when finished, was pizza and stuffed portabella mushroom. AMAZING!
**Within 20-minutes of my last bite, I had a headache and I woke up with a headache.
**Was it the Gluten or Dairy? We shall find out.
*WOULD I RECOMMEND THIS CLEANSE?
**Absolutely, without a doubt! It was very reasonable and so worth it to feel so good!
**One of the MAIN reasons I attempted this cleanse was to know first hand what to expect and tell people/clients when I am asked about cleansing. I think it is something everyone she try at least once!
*ADVICE
* Find a friend to take on this cleanse with you. Accountability is HUGE!
* Think ahead and be prepared! Meal prep, snack prep, for the week not just the day. The LESS THINKING YOU HAVE TO DO, THE BETTER OFF YOU WILL BE!
* Trust in the process....take notes in your journal and let the journey continue!
