I can't believe I'm sipping on my last juice of my three day cleanse right now!!! On day one, I never thought it would end..but I ended up loving it!! If you read yesterday's post, today was pretty similar. I feel totally normal (no lightheadedness, etc.) and I'm super content! I did crave food today more so than yesterday, but I think it's because I know tomorrow..I get to eat!!!!! My goal is to not go immediately have a cheat night (really just because my body would probably hate me) and keep incorporating lots of whole, plant based foods as the majority of my diet. But no promises on that cheat night..I'll try to hold off a few days for my stomach ;) Balance is key, remember that!!
So, since today was basically just like yesterday (other than maybe I don't think I could drink juice forever lol I would like food now), I'll just move into some final thoughts! If you have ever thought about doing a juice cleanse, I'd say 100% do it!!! If it's for the right reasons. I don't encourage things like this for weight loss, etc. as I think any maintainable and healthy weight loss should take time. But with that being said, if you want to just see how you feel or want to do it to help you begin a more whole foods diet, go for it!! The first day is HARD, but push through it and I promise it will be worth it!! I feel so refreshed and have had zero stomach issues these past few days. And I'm just proud of myself for sticking with it! Also, my skin actually did clear up quite a bit!! Ohhh also...a major misconception I had was that I would be hungry...no, just the opposite. I was so full, I ended up doing only 5 a day and even that felt like a alot. Of course, I was also drinking a gallon of water each day! This cleanse made me more aware of my hunger cues as well. A lot of times, I'm not even hungry..I just want to eat! I'm going to make an effort to eat more based on my hunger from now on. Okay well that's all! Thank you for following my journey and I hope I helped anyone thinking about a cleanse want to follow through!
