Hello Ladies and Gentlemen!
The first week is usually filled with lots of excitement and detoxing! Probably a few headaches related to decreased sugar and caffeine. Go ahead and post below any questions you have or comments about your week.
I should have a slew of recipes coming your way by tomorrow.
Question for today? (Post answer below)
1. Where did you improve last week?
2. Where did you “mess up” last week?
3. What’s the plan for this week?
I drank all my water was easy. And did really eat food as directed.
Saturday could not resist 1/4 cup coffee mostly just smelling it. I also need to move.
This weeks plan get moving. And really just concerntrate on getting all food in.
Feeling pretty good just headache on first day.
I was talking to Virgilija yesterday and she made a great point, use very, very cold water, and drink it immediately through a straw. I’ve been mixing cranberry or pomegranate juice with it but hopefully drinking through a straw will make it even easier because it does not taste well and the consistency is pretty gnarly.
I agree with Cathy, Catalyst is really helping me feel full. I was getting my sugar cravings earlier in the week but those seemed to have tapered off a bit.
Good news…since Monday I’m down 2.5 pounds. Yippee! Still having a hard time drinking all the water though…as it is, it’s making me wake up in the middle of the night every night to go potty!
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Whew! I am SO glad the fiber days are over! I had to force that drink down every day. I did find a great way to drink it - with iced green tea. Excellent flavor, you just have to get past the consistency
Oh, and I’ve had a couple of meal replacement shakes. I made them with almond milk, ice and a scoop of chocolate amazing grass. It really takes the foaminess out of the drink and adds a nice chocolate flavor. The first time I made it with water and ice and this way is much better!
Does anyone have their next pack yet? Mine didn’t arrive yet and I know we start with breakfast tomorrow. If anyone has a day or two that I can borrow from them, I’ll pay you back when I get mine!
Thanks! Hope you’re all doing well!
Drinking my fluids is going well. Except for the day I drove my friend to Berkeley and around, wasn’t sure when the bathroom breaks would be, so I drank a lot when I got home….4:00. I found a yummy recipe on the back of Trader Joe’s organic quinoa box. We also substituted spagetti squash for pasta with our marinara meat sauce. Need some other recipes, please pass them my way. The Mary’s gone crackers are an acquired taste, however, with almond butter or hummus is the way to go. My exercise has been zilch. This morning Greg and I swam laps, I walked home. It really feels good to move again. I also received a massage last night, which I can tell helps the cleansing process. Ran out of Flax, so no drink this am, but we will have it tonight. I am feeling good about this detox, and happier because I exercised today.
