Cleanse/Detox Diet - Day 3

My week long series of posts about my current cleanse/detox diet continues!

Day 3


Really didn't sleep well again last night. Woke up at 3:00 am thinking it was time to start the day, but I finally convinced myself to go back to sleep for a while. When I did get up, I was pleasantly surprised by number on the scale. I also retook the initial measurements and saw some slight differences. Oddly, my energy level seemed high even though I didn't sleep well...maybe because I am going to bed earlier. It's Saturday, so I am a bit worried about the temptations to snack on stuff I shouldn't because I will be home all day.

Again, I followed the protocol for capsules, cleanse, shake and small snacks throughout the entire day.

After fixing my kids breakfast, I had a good 40 minutes core/cardio workout and buckets of sweat were coming off me. Hey wait, this is 3 straight days without any coffee and no massive caffeine withdrawal headache this morning. I am wondering though if the energy level will plummet like it did yesterday.

I mowed the yard/leaves and still felt good. Then I finished the last few sections of my deck that needed stained and still felt good. Actually, got the kid's swing set/fort stained as well. I would have to say this was a dramatic improvement over yesterday...thank goodness!

It was more chicken and veggies for dinner. Really enjoyed the spinach salad with cucumbers, mushrooms, red peppers and just a little red wine vinegar. Got the kids to bed and then started watching the LSU vs. Alabama game. Likely, won't make it until the end.
