I started a 10 day
detox a week ago, but this morning there was an evil cereal bowl calling me and I decided that after 7 days I give in and I ate a big bowl! :) I couldn't have carried on for 10 days anyway as AC (=boyfriend) is coming tomorrow and he wants to take me out for dinner (which I don't want to spoil :) plus we have a big Easter family dinner on Thursday before we go on
vacation. (again... I need to enjoy that! :)
But anyway, I am happy, refereshed and feel very healthy!
Experiences:
- Despite what some of you might think, I did eat a lot! But only from the healthy stuff... fruits, veggies and seeds
- I never felt hungry
- I did have cravings though... especially for cereal!
- Favorite meal: steamed broccoli with grilled onions
- Starting from day 2, I had much more energy than before, running was not a core anymore
I did cheat once, on my great god mother's 70th birthday party :) I just had to have a slice of that heavenly strawberry cheesecake- I didn't run every single day as planned, but I did go 5 times in 7 days and I went to the gym 3 times to lift some weights/do some spinning as well
- I lost 1.5 kg (3.3lb) yeyyyyy
Overall I'm feeling great and that is truly one of the best detoxes/diets I've ever done. I was not hungry, I ate lots of delicious healthy stuff and went outside to finally start
running (something I always wanted to do). I will certainly not start to eat all sorts of junk now, I'm sticking to a healthy lifestyle and will keep on running outside too.
I encourage you to have a health week! Bikini season is approaching fast and a detox week can do wonders to not only how you look on the outside, but also to how you feel inside! :)
Next challenge: stick to healthy food in an all inclusive 5 star resort for 8 days... oh oh....
