On the second night of the cleanse I totally freaked out and made myself dinner. I had Pasta, french fries and dessert.
I hate myself.
After talking it out with a friend who has done this before, she made me realize that you can’t go from pigging out every day to eating almost nothing. That explains the hallucinations.
Day 3 I decided to add in a smoothie for breakfast, which consist of:
1/2 cup blueberries
1 scoop whey powder
1 banana
1 scoop powdered wheat grass
1 and 1/2 cups of coconut milk
I am also allowing myself fresh vegetables for dinner. I am rationalizing these additions to the cleanse by quoting last weeks yoga class instructor. When an older man in class couldn’t finish a pose, she gave him a little block to help and said “It’s important to modify your practice to make it work for you”. I couldnt agree more!
I feel so much better and even though I feel a little bit hungry during the day, I have so much energy. It’s really amazing how great I feel. I will continue to check in….
Stephers, that sounds like a good plan. There is no way I could ever do a cleanse but I think that you’re smart to add some nutrients to this especially given how active you are.

Yay! Good for you. This is much better. I’ll be at the class this Sunday if you’d like to join!
