Update on cleanse

Arnegard

I am closing in on day 2 of a 3 day cleanse.  I am allowing myself to have chicken with dinner or seriously I think I may die.  Other than that, it is fruits and veggies all day.  Today I tracked it all on MFP.  Lots of water, dandelion root tea, herbal teas and this morning I did have coffee.

It hasn't been *that* hard, but I also look forward to Saturday so I can have some protein.

I've had about 2 periods, per day that I just want to go crazy and eat a bunch of shiz.

Yup, that's why I can't do 'em. Hope you get the desired results though!

Hollylb3!!  I am just hoping to jump start myself back onto the weight loss boat.  My lowest weight this year was 157 before I ran my half in May.  Wednesday was 172.8.  I know that I need to stay on track for a month or more so I can fit into my rockin' Viking jeans in October!

Are you following a cleanse program, or did you just decide to do it on your own? I'm curious to hear your results.

Kind of googled it, word of mouth, DH's experience.

So, the fruits/veggies part is kind of all of the above.  The Dandelion root tea is definitely something I read about online.  Our MOMS Club had a PT come in about 5 years ago and talked about a cleanse they helped with and advised chicken at night if they had to...

I'll post results for you Saturday morning.

Cool- I'm anxious to hear. Cambree turns 1 in two weeks, so I am gearing up to really start dieting/exercising even more since I don't have to worry about my BM supply so much. Something like your cleanse might be able to kick start me; I would love to hear if you think it was worthwhile.

What were you end results?

I did an Advocare cleanse. It was 10 days of clean eating, no dairy, no alcohol, some supplements. I hated every minute of it. Sigh.

Yeah, I am okay at times.  At times I would give my eye teeth for a mocha.  I probably cheated with coffee this morning.  I figured I could do 3 days - 10 days makes you my hero.  I do not have that much discipline.

I am only on day 2.  I lost 1.2 lbs in day 1.

Arnegard

Down 3.6 lbs after 2 days.  I woke up hungry as a mofo, but after seeing that, I can manage it for one more day.

Sorry, @Arnegard, I meant to ask 80s. I know you'll update when you're done. @iheartthe80s, 6 pounds in 10 days is great! I would like to lose 20, so that would kick-start my weight loss. Thanks for the idea.

Louiej, I posted a pic of my jeans for you.

No head trauma.  Trauma from trying on 2 pairs of jeans the other night and none fit.  

:-O

Louiej

I saw them...I do admit they are pretty snazzy. I may be joining this cleanse...I just blew the ass out of my last pair of yoga pants...

Louiej

Can you tell me why when I try to tag, the at sign isn't blue as well.  Did it notify you that I tagged you?

Louiej

Weird...I didn't get Arnegard's but I got yours @auroraloo. Glitch!

Arnegard

I just copy the screen name I want to tag...

@louiej That was copied from @auroraloo - but when I just type her sn nothing comes up.  What am I not doing?

Louiej

@auroraloo....you still did not address the fact that she has Vikings jeans....
