9 day cleanse challenge - Day 3

So day 3 (Friday), yum yum I got to eat a meal...

Again it's not been too hard, I hardly touched the free food I could munch throughout the day at all, as I was allowed 2 shakes today one for breakfast and one for lunch.

I've been busy in the garden today and didn't feel the need to take many breaks - I actually feel quite energetic, which I thought I wouldn't be after 3 days of hardly any food.

So today's in take;

Breakfast - Garcinia tablets, 120ml Aloe Gel, forever therm and a plain vanilla shake.

Mid -morning - Fibre sachet in water.

Lunch - Garcinia tablets, Vanilla Shake with 192grams Blueberries and handful of Spinach and the forever Therm tablet

Tea - Garcinia tablets and my meal which was a bit of a medley throw together to be honest - but included 2 flat mushrooms, Brown rice, Spinach, some red onion, sweetcorn, vegetable stock, Quorn pieces, Tomato Puree and some mushy peas on the side - it came in at 571 calories - nothing special to look at - but it tasted extremely yummy...and I couldn't eat it all...

9 day cleanse - Day 2

Day 2 (Thursday) - so much easier than day 1, even getting used to the amount of gel.

Same principal as yesterday - but looking forward to being able to introduce a 600 calorie meal tomorrow!

Free food I munched on today were;
In my shake I had 130gms of raspberries and some spinach and then I picked at 14 sugar snap pea pods, celery, cucumber and a pepper today.

I didn't find myself going for as much of a wee today, but still more than normal.

I even managed to avoid the homemade lime and coconut cake, pretzels and chocolate biscuits floating around the office today - I feel very proud of myself!

I ended the day with a bit of a headache, but I had had 2 long days in a row, so can't quite put it down to anything to do with the C9  - looking forward to a 4 day weekend now!

This program also encourages you to increase your exercise, so on day one and two I have split my 30 minutes exercise up in to 2 x 15 minutes of quick walking, just to fit it in with my busy days - over the next few days I have lots of gardening and DIY to be flexing my muscles at. 

​Roll on day 3!!

9 day cleanse challenge - Day 1

13/4/2017

Boo Hoo, So I've been having technical difficulties and it wiped all my previous blog from Wednesday - So I'll try and remember what I wrote.

So Day 1 - I purposely chose a couple of busy days to do the day 1 & 2 of this program on, as they are said to be the hardest. I'm quite a foodie and therefore thought if I was busy I'd not mind so much that I wasn't going to be eating as much.

The first 2 days are classed as reset days for your digestion - so here is what I had to do.

Morning 2 x garcinia tablets, a forever Therm tablet and some free food. 120ml of Aloe gel and lots of water...
mid morning - fibre sachet dissolved in water
Lunch, 2 x garcinia tablets, a forever Therm tablet, 120ml Aloe Vera, an Ultra light shake which I used some of my free food to bulk out (8 strawberries and some spinach) and lots more water.
Dinner 2 x Garcinia tablets, 120ml Aloe vera Gel, some more water
bedtime 120ml of Aloe Gel and water

the free foods i munched on throughout the day to curb hunger was;
spinach, lettuce, a tomato, a pepper, cucumber and celery (plus what went in the shake)

So was I hungry? Not as bad as I thought I was going to be. The church where I rent my room have a lunch on a Wednesday, that normally smells lovely - but it has never smelt so good as Wednesday...I found myself with different tastes in my mouth like I was craving, however I'm very aware it's part of that 'I can't have it so I want it stuff!', so i just munched on my free foods and kept my self distracted.

Side effects - too much information I know, but I wee'd for Britain!! I guess it was my body geeting rid of all of it's toxins and stuff.

How I felt? A bit fed up of the Aloe gel, but I know that day 3 that becomes less and it's doing my insides the world of good, plus it helped curb some of the hunger.

All in all not a bad day and took myself off to bed with an aloe blossom tea...

9 day Cleanse Challenge - What's this?

13/4/2017

So, those who know me and or have used my services know that I'm very passionate about well-being and after a few years of looking, I've found a product I really believe gives so many people health, well-being and most of all hope - and therefore made the decision to add it to my range.

So, Forever Living...who are they?

- They are a company who have been going for almost 40 years.

- They are Aloe Vera based and own over 60% of the worlds Aloe.

- They are so confident about their products that they offer a 60 day money back guarantee (how many other companies do you know who offer that!?)

- They have head offices in over 150 different countries

Forever’s product range includes: • Health and nutrition • Weight management • Sports and fitness • Personal care • Skincare and beauty • Animal and home

So anyway, as I've been getting to know these products myself I can honestly say I will never go back to shop bought toothpaste, shampoo/conditioner and deodorant again - why? because I just feel so so clean and healthy!

In amongst this getting to the know the products, I decided to find out about their 9 day Cleanse program as I'd heard about it a few years ago and kept seeing people post their pictures on social media, but mostly a couple of friends had said how it had helped them.

So the Clean 9 what does it involve - well follow my journey day by day and I'll let you know...
