Day 11. The cleanse is over now. Starting today I have 4 vitamin and mineral and oil supplement cap packets to take a day. Also meal replacement shakes. Holy crap, I tried to gag one down this morning. It was so thick and viscous and nasty I had to eat it with a spoon, and I still feel grosse from it. I ordered it in vanilla so I could add flavors to it. I put rasberries in it this morning and it still tasted just like those old Metrex shakes from 20 years ago. remember that shit? I DON'T think I can use these. I will just have my REAL smoothies when I want a meal replacement cause EW! I am imagining that GLUE in my stomach right now, and the thought is making me ill.
Also my weight is stalled again at 127. I will see for how long that lasts.I do feel very toned though. I bet I have lost some inches for sure.
So, onto the concept of the food diary.(I said I'd write about it) I have kept one for a long time. If you are dieting, there is nothing more important. Sometimes I look mine over with a highlighter and see what time of day I tend to need snacks, when I am most tired, when I crave protien. Its good to write down what excersize you did that day, when you craved what..that way you can figure out when to plan a snack and curb your urges before they happen.Here is one of the MOST important things aabout a food diary: If you take a bite of a sandwich, you write it down. If you dont write it down, that's cheating! Because the bites add up! And this is where a food diary can really help you! Even 5 almonds twice a day add up to over 100 kcals!So you need to write it down.And DRINKS count! ALOT. If you crave soda, drink lemon or lime selzer water instead. Diet soda can actually fool your cells into storing fat! EW! And the chemicals are nasty!They create things like fibroid tumors!(and worse!)
Treat your body like a machine and it will run like one! Latahz! =)

Hey Rick I'm only 14 months late to reply! But this was the Advocare system. You drink it for a certain number of days.
