Day 10...Hallelujah!!
The golden number is 10! Yes, we've made it to the last day of the 10 day Master Cleanse. Going into the diet the both of us were nervous and slightly skeptical that we could finish the cleanse. Regardless, we jumped in head first and decided to tackle this challenge one day at a time. The first 3 days were a little tough since our body was beginning to react to the shift in our diet. But with some rest and perseverance, we managed to get through it. Initially, I was only going to do the fast, but a month before I embarked on this adventure, the T-Hub decided to hop on board as well. I'm so glad he did, because it made all the difference. We were able to stick it out together and keep pushing one another.
Our energy level was surprisingly really good and we rarely felt weak. Most of our friends and family couldn't believe how upbeat we looked and sounded over the phone. Over time our appetite decreased and our bodies adjusted.
What next? Tomorrow we are confined to just orange, lemonade, and water. It's very important to gradually introduce solid food into the body since all the good and bad bacteria has completely been flushed out. We are also going to start taking probiotics to build good bacteria in the stomach.
We were gifted with more time since we did not have to think about food or cooking, not to mention we saved some money. We also realized how food is such a central part of our society and our relationships. We had to find ways to fill our time and keep our minds from wondering about meals. We read, watched TV, went for walks, and caught up on some quality time.
It's been difficult at times watching people eat, seeing those never-ending fast food commercials on T.V. and driving by our favorite restaurants. But in the end, it was all worth it. Our bodies removed tons of toxic gunk that was caked in our digestive system for years. We reaped the benefits of improved complexion, better health, weight loss, increased blood circulation, and so much more. The next few days will be interesting as we enter back into the real world of food.
The T-Hub and I definitely have some great moments to share from this experience. I enjoyed being able to tell himthe gritty details of the cleanse. We had many laughs!
All in all, I would recommend the cleanse. It's not as hard as people say if you just fill up on enough lemonade each day. Here's to a healthlier body!!
