Since deciding to re-visit our Clean 9 cleansing program, (and actually following the guidelines this time) I have decided to become a blogger to log my experiences and struggles, if any).
When I first tried the Clean 9, I very stupidly did not read the instruction booklet before hand. The first two days consist of taking the Aloe drinks and supplement in the pack INCLUDING the forever lite ultra shake.
Which comes in tasty flavours of Chocolate or Vanilla. When I first attempted this, I took all the supplements and drank the aloe and lots of water.... but for some reason I got it in my head that, that was it... So I missing out on the shake which contains all the nutrients and minerals you need daily.. DOH so no wonder I struggled.
So the last few days I have been cutting out coffee and alcohol as these can cause headaches when you suddenly stop drinking them..This has been hard because I love coffee, I got into the habit of drinking a cup of coffee every morning... safe to say yesterday I went without.. This morning however I caved, made a cup, sniffed it a lot. I took 1 sip then threw it down the sink. WILLPOWER
I have upped my intake of water.. which I should have done years ago. Not particularly found of the taste but hey ho its good for you right?
Another area that I have had to do was cut out chocolate, and I am a chocoholic always have been. Both me and my partner (Ed) do have a sweet tooth. As does my best mate so I might have to choose who I see over the next 9 days!!
I did cave yesterday and had some Mars planets. But Ed is now under strict instructions not to eat any chocolate around me or buy any or have any in our home!! Poor Guy ;-) I am just hoping the Chocolate shake fills my urge to reach for a packet.
WISH ME LUCK.. DAY 1 STARTS TOMORROW
