So back right before Thanksgiving I told you I was planning on doing a 21 Day Detox. Well, I have completed the first week, and so far, so good.
When I first looked at the recipes, I freaked out a bit - I have never eat so many veggies in my LIFE, but I already committed to this after contemplating it for oohhh 11 months! ;)
The program recommends that you follow it to a T for optimum results. I knew that would not work for me - I would not eat the meals, and I would not have time to prep them all. So instead I went through the book and picked out a couple meals I knew I could handle and I prepped those for the whole week.
The prep work really saved me through out the week because there is A LOT of food over the course of the day and the timing is super important. Here are some of my prep photos:
In just ONE week I'm down 5.7lbs!!! While I'm over the moon about the weight loss, I'm actually doing this program to reset my system for the new year and instill some better eating habits that have been lacking as of late.
Here are some of the other things I'm noticing as I detox:
* skin blemishes clearing up
* dark undereye bags lightening
* excellent sleep quality
* few to no cravings
* clear urine = hydrated
Here are my very awesome looking and DELICIOUS meals from phase/week 1:
