So yesterday I started a cleanse, which I’m attempting to

1. Rid my body of fat storing toxins
2. Loss healthy weight
3. Improve my overall health

The first two days and the last two days of the nine day cleanse are considered the most important, as this is where you flush out the toxins and flood your body with nutrients that it desires. This whole thing is really an attempt to but your body back to the way it was intended to work. So the first two days I will have nothing more than two shakes a day and 100 ounces of water each day.
The shakes that I made yesterday for breakfast and supper have only two ingredients:
100% Fruit Juice and one scoop of Life Essence (powder form). I choose Life Essence by Pure Essence Labs because everyone talks about it having the right combination of vitamins and minerals that one needs during the fasting stage of the program. You can also use Veggie Juice instead of fruit juice, but I prefer the taste of 100% fruit juice so that’s what I went for. After mixing the juice and the powder, I realized that the more ice I put with it and the more I make it taste like a smoothie, the better off I am. Hey, this is the only thing I get to have with taste in it for two days, I’m going to make it count. The powder mixed in really doesn’t taste that bad, but I noticed that you want to drink it as fast as possible or it starts to separate, even after putting it in a blender.

So day 1 is out of the way, and I have to say it was a lot better than I had expected it to be. Being that I love food, especially lunch time, I thought the hunger pains would get to me. I did have them, but I think the amount of water that I drank kept my body kinda “full” and kept me from thinking about food. I also had a really busy day with work, so I didn’t have time to think to much about how hungry I was. Day 1 is now gone and over with and I’m one more day closer to having real meals again. However I would have to say that I woke up today with a lot of energy and got a very good nights rest.
