This is it-the last day.
Truthfully, I'm sad!
It's been so fun getting to know our whole juicing wolf pack.
[Wolf pack? The pack consists of: me, Lauryn from Skinny Confidential, Annie INVENTOR of Suja, Samantha and Casey who are Suja affiliates, and Cody from People Water]
We've helped each other out a lot throughout the last 3 days and I've grown to adore these girls--and wolfpack dad. And all the people I didn't get to meet who joined us, too! I'm sad its over.
The third and final day was a cake walk.
No, pun intended.
My mind was wavering more than my body was today for sure..I know I get to eat in just another few hours, so I'll have thoughts like, 'just lick that macaroni and cheese spoon...no ones here.....its doesn't matter....its just a lick....'
But, it does matter.
It matters to me that I finish strong with something I start, and something I'm so passionate about now.
So, I never had a lick.
My energy has gone up at this point, if that's even possible.
I'm sleeping like a baby.
I'm happy and I feel good.
I had a physical at the new gym I joined today, and as of 4:00 pm I have lost a solid 4.7 pounds and my intracellular and extracellular water numbers are off the charts amazing.
The proof is in the pudding, guys.
So, most of the questions I have received all revolve around what I am going to eat for tomorrow and the days that follow....
My plan in short:
I'm going to make healthy choices and not cut anything out--just add better stuff in.
More specifically:
Breakfast: mixed fruits with flax seed and omega mini biscuits from Costco.
Lunch: Madras Lentils...its lentils, red beans and spices in a creamy tomato sauce. THAT'S IT! Those are all the ingredients. This is SO good guys, plus it has no preservatives, gluten, MSG, or other additives at all at a whopping 300 calories per pouch.
Try them! These are also from Costco and look like this:
Dinner: lean meat with a big old side of veggies.
In between meals I'm letting myself eat salad til its coming out of my ears, and I want to consume at least two 100% juiced greens glasses a day.
Suja or DIY, it's happening no matter what....I have to juice!
Now, I'm going to go enjoy my final Vanilla Cloud in my comfy, cozy bed...
Cheers!

I want to do it! It's a bit price-y! Would juicing the ingredients in the suja bottles at home be ok or do they have some magic in them and I should get them?
ReplyDeletethey are cold pressed at suja instead of juiced veggies and fruits...so you get even more nutrition out of the cold pressed juice, but juice them at home! they'll still taste great im sure
DeleteSo glad you shared the low down on cleansing! I went to my local whole foods today in search of some yummy cold pressed goodies but had no luck (I think here in the south anything without "sweet" or "fried" in the name scares people away;). Anywho, I was wondering if you had any tips on at home cleansing? I really have no working knowledge of juicing so anything you want to throw out there is awesome;) Thanks girl!
ReplyDeleteThere is a lot of information out there for at home cleansing! I did mine at home and I feel like it worked exactly the same way! Loved it. Lauryn @ The Skinny Confidential can email you the details on the at home version. The juicer is pricey as well if you get a good one ($150), but if you look for a sale you can get a better price... but the plus side of that is you only have to spend that money once and then can always repeat! Good luck!
Deleteyes! and thank you for letting brittany know about The Skinny Conf. J LYnn!
DeleteThose madras lentils are sooooo good... I ate them lots in college (so easy to make!). LOVE juicing every morning, too! Healthy choices don't have to be hard! :)
ReplyDeletehey weslie, watch the movie "fat, sick and nearly dead". It's about juice fasting and the health benefits of it!! Promise you'll love it!
ReplyDeleteI watched it and LOVE IT! thanks!
DeleteI really want to try this, but Suja is not available where I live, Germany.
ReplyDeleteI also tried to see if they deliver here but they don't.
Any alternatives you know of, besides making it all myself?
Suja is the only brand of that I know that does it all for you...dang it!
Deletewere you able to workout during these 3 days?
ReplyDeleteI worked out every day and had more energy than normally while on the cleanse.
DeleteCongrats! Here's at great doc you will greatly enjoy http://vimeo.com/50912488
ReplyDeleteWhat juicer do you use Weslie?
ReplyDeleteI use a Breville--its the best
DeleteI have a...um, personal...question. I am starting the cleanse on Monday (yay!) but I know on some other cleanses, they take a toll on your bowel movements (for lack of a better term). Like they are literally getting rid of ALL your toxins. Did you experience any such effects from the Suja? Like should I stay near a bathroom? (Sorry, I know this is totally gauche to be asking, especially over a blog, but I want to hear it from someone who's done it!)
ReplyDeleteThanks for any insight!
