I may be closer to 30 than 20 , but I still give in to peer pressure. When a group of peps I know decided to do a cleanse I was like "NO-thank you!" because I am way to busy for seriously restricted eating. Well I thought it over for a few weeks and decided to go ahead and do it. It's only 10 days of my life, right?
So the one we are doing is the
Advocare Herbal Cleanse and while the fiber drink tastes, umm yucky, it's actually not that bad. The don't eat foods include:
~
sugar *I'm sooooo missing my weight watcher desserts*
~
caffeine *ohhhhhhh coffee I'm barely making it without you every morning*
~
Enriched flour *really not that bad because I mostly eat whole grain, but I was very surprised how many food have this in it*
~
no boxed or frozen food *yikes, no 'off' days where I'm too tired to cook!*
~
dairy *this is probably the hardest for me because cheese makes everything taste better*
Lots of veggies and fruit of course. I may have to scream if I eat another apple and I'm only on day 2! I've been on a plateau for a few weeks with my weight loss and I'm hoping this will help.
I've been considering dropping Weight Watchers because I'm just not sure that it's really helping me. On average I lost less than 1 pound a week and is that really worth 40 bucks a month? I get that it's about being held accountable by going and weighing in every week, but I'm extremely motivated on my own. I eat right and exercise 5x a week and I'm determined to lose the weight, but I don't think the meetings are helping me. I'm considering just doing an online tracker like spark people.
Anyone tried anything they like?
We are ready for SPRING!!!!!!! Miss Madison and I are tired of the cold and rain!! We had a few nice days so we ran outside for a little sunshine.
I just noticed her cute baby belly hanging out in this picture.
Yep, I'm a little baby walker now!
