My review of Day 1 - 3 Day Fruit Flush Detox

What can I say… I feel good. I don’t even feel like i’m on a detox program.
Yes, I was a bit hungry in the morning hours, but for some odd reason, after 4 pm… I wasn’t hungry at all & had to force myself to eat. Weird given that I only ate about 967 calories when i’m used to eating between 1750 - 2000 calories a day. Maybe it’s just me. I did have a slight headache in the morning hours but that soon went away. I don’t drink coffee or caffeinated drinks, so I didn’t have to worry about the caffeine withdrawal symptoms.

I was really looking forward to my salad and chicken but when it came around to it, I wasn’t hungry AT ALL!!! I had to force myself to eat all of it. 6 cups of raw veggies is A LOT!!! Maybe i’ll move it down to 3-4 cups for the next two days. My salad was actually pretty delicious. I didn’t have a problem with the toppings as I LOVE avocado, olive oil & lime. I did use a bit of Mrs. Dash no sodium seasoning… I hope that was ok.
One thing I notice right away is that I wasn’t suffering from edema (water retention). This is BIG problem for me especially during the afternoon hours and into the night. I also noticed this same thing yesterday when I cut out most of my grains, sprouted carbs & dairy, and replaced them with fruit. Possible gluten, grain allergy? Hhmmmm….

I was suppose to do one of my split routines today but I felt like I wasn’t gonna give it my all, so I opted for a run/walk on the treadmill. I felt pretty good throughout the complete workout with no dizzy spells or anything. I also went shopping for my Fruit Flush food that starts tomorrow & ends on Monday.

Organic Fruit is SOOOOOOOOOO expensive!!! But, I know that i’m putting good things in my body free of pesticides & who knows what else!!!

Oh, before I forget… one thing I noticed as I was looking back through the book… Jay outlines a day schedule with particular times - (8 am, 10 am, noon, 2 pm, 4 pm, 6 pm). I really didn’t follow it today since I started eating a little bit late. I ate my last meal at around 9:30 pm and he has it down for 6 pm

Tomorrow & Monday I will try and keep it at the hours that he suggests and see how that goes.

Anyhow… i’m off to bed now.

Good night world!
