We are Half Way There

The juice cleanse detox is the hardest thing I have ever done in my life, including child birth.  Today is day 11, eleven days to go, I HOPE!  My therapist has been known to extend the program on certain individuals and with my luck it will be me.  I will give all the details of the last 11 days but I first want to tell you what a wonderful husband I have...he is two days behind me in this crazy detox.  It is so nice to have his support.

Day One : Excited to experience the life changing results from this program. Glucose = 100 (prediabetic)
Colon Hydrotherapy
Recipe for my Organic Veggie Juice Cocktail plus instructed to drink 4 qts of water a day.  That is 1 gallon!
(all organically grown)
3 Carrots
Quarter Cucumber
Celery Stalk
Half Chard
Half Kale
Quarter Beet
Handful Cilantro
1" Ginger Root
Slice Black Raddish
Broccoli Crown

Day Two : Biggest headache of my life but did not take any meds to relieve the pain.  I am trying to detox, right?  Juice is disgusting.  Why am I doing this..oh yeah, overweight, addicted to sugar and prediabetic.


Day Three : Headache gone...thank goodness!  I miss eating food more than I thought I would.  Three weeks seems like a long time.
Lost 2 pounds
Colon Hydrotherapy
Homeopathic Supplements:Heart Small Intestine, Gum Therapy & Chlorella tablets.

Day Four : Still no headache and heartburn is completely gone.  Surprised how good I feel only having 1 cup of juiced vegetables and water.

Day Five : Feeling pretty good.  A little tired and run down until I drink my juice.
Lost 3 pounds
Colon Hydrotherapy
More Homeopathic Supplements : Chemtox, Bladder/Kidney Meridian

Day Six & Seven (THE WEEKEND)  Oh man, the weekend was HARD!  I can't believe how much food revolved around my weekend.  David had just as hard a time but we stayed strong.  I did try a lemon/cayenne concoction for my water that was pretty good.  I was amazed.

Day Eight : Started week two and feeling pretty good.  I still miss food but I am not craving anything.  The juice gives me all the nutrition I need.  My energy level is still pretty low.  I need to exercize.
Glucose = 76 (Yeehaw!)
Lost 4 pounds
Colon Hydrotherapy
Homeopathic Supplements : Gall Bladder/Liver BioAstin for Energy and Electrolytes for water.

Day Nine :   My energy is coming back but some food cravings are back also.  I really wanted some of the cauliflower/cheese soup we made for the kids last night.  Instead I had my juice. My skin feels & looks amazing.  My hair too!

Day Ten :  Today was my dads 79th birthday. Energy is back.  Got a wild hair and cleaned out my spice cabinet.  Boy, there were some OLD spices in there and some other things I didn't recognize.  My family went to the Olive Garden for dinner.  REALLY HARD! but atleast I didn't go and torture myself drinking herbal tea.

Day Eleven : Half way through HALLELUJAH! I did 15 minutes of Wii Fit.
