Day 7 on The Cleanse -
Well here I am on day 7 of this really interesting way of eating. I can't believe I have gone this long without sugar or dairy or meat or bread or pasta or coffee or wine.....yahoo!
I am doing GREAT! For some reason this cleanse is really easy to stick to. I think it is because of how curious I am.
I had a headache for 5 days and then my muscles were sore for no reason. To be honest it kinda freaked me out. It was weird to think that the foods I eat have ability to make me feel that bad. I have done some research and the headache is due to coming off of refined sugar. I have to say, I will think twice before I mindlessly toss a sugary treat in my mouth again. That headache was a lesson learned.
Besides all that I feel great! I had the experience of getting a total energy boost out of a pear the other day. It seems like the food I eat turns into instant energy. It is the kind of energy that puts more bounce in your step.
My workouts have been interesting too. I have way more stamina!
I have not been hungry throughout this whole experience. Sometimes it is hard to find something to eat. But luckily I live with a PCC and a Trader Joe's close by. I haven't had any cravings. In fact I crave junk food less than when I was eating it. Very strange. I have surely consumed some stuff I had never even heard of like Hemp Granola with Hemp Milk. It is actually kinda good.
So, so far so good.
I would recommend this cleanse to anyone. It is a very interesting experiment to do with yourself and find out what the impact is of what you eat.
