Juice Cleanse Day 2

     So today I woke up with a headache and feeling nauseated...welcome to sugar with drawl. It's a good thing I already was expecting the with drawl or I would have thought the veggies were trying to kill me. But I got up out of bed and we went for a walk/run at 7:30am well having some Mean Green Machine mixed with water and some extra apples, pineapple and grapes. By time we were halfway through the walk my headache and nausea was gone and I was feeling pretty good. 

     Nathaniel has been making little comments all day about going to the Texas Roadhouse for steaks or get  a burger in hopes that I will cave and he can give up. To bad for him that I haven't had craving for food yet. I just think about the positives and the fact that it's only ten days. I like to think that steak will taste ten times better in 9 more days, if I choose to have a steak then. I'm actually looking forward to eating my meatloaf that I froze before I started this cleanse. 

     Speaking of positives I have lost 2 more pounds of fat today. I checked out my thighs today and noticed they are not looking so cottage cheesey. Now if I could just get rid of the belly fat from baby I'll be all set. I already weigh less then I did before the baby but I still have a pooch. I still don't have a whole lot of energy but I have little pluses in that area. Such as wanting to go for a walk at 7:30am, not my usual first thought in the morning. I also was able to work in my garden which i haven't been able to do for a bit do to the heat.

Today's drinks

Breakfast

We had the previously mentioned concoction of Mean Green Machine, water and fruit. Was not bad especially with the extra water. I let it sit over night and it separated which i then just put a couple scoops of pulp into the fruit and water.

Lunch

Sweet Lettuce (vitamix): 1 cup green grapes, 1cup Romaine Lettuce, 1/2 medium apple, 1 cup water

Review: This one was very refreshing. The romaine does have much flavor when blended so it tastes more like a fruit juice. 

Dinner

Detox+: 2 Apples, Handful of Spinich, chunk of Beetroot, 3 inch chunk of Cucumber, 1/2 avocado, 2 cups water

Review: This is the one I started with the night before the cleanse. It's a good juice. It's easier to drink when thined out. Remember that these are all pretty big portioned drinks if using a blender. So if you're making it just for you then it will make enough for a meal and a snack or you can half the recipes.
