HOT summer weekend (days 8+9)

Days 8 and 9 of my cleanse

First off let me apologise for not blogging over the weekend, I think you will agree that the weather was glorious and not appropriate for staying in doors. 

Did you enjoy the summer sun? I hope you were fully protected. I was applying this bad boy and my skin feels amazing!!

Everything seems better when the sun shines, but this ‘silver lining’ brings its own cloud! With today’s knowledge of the dangers of over-exposure to the sun, we seek only the highest quality sun protection products available. 

Aloe Sunscreen provides just that! Combining modern science with natural ingredients, this effective sunscreen helps to soothe, lubricate, moisturise and protect the skin against sun damage. With an SPF of 30, Aloe Sunscreen blocks both UVA and UVB rays, while this silky, smooth lotion made with pure stabilized Aloe Vera Gel, rich moisturisers and maintains the skin’s natural moisture balance.
High SPF for more sun protection.
Strong, water resistant formula which retains its SPF up to 40
minutes after water activity.
Moisturises skin to prolong your tan.
Safe and gentle enough for children.

Following my day in the sun, I applied the 100 % stabilised Aloe gelly which soothed and replenished my skin after sun exposure.

The weekend part of my clean 9 was pretty much the same in terms of I had no hunger pains, didn't over eat not was my energy lack. One thing I did different was up my water intake a bit more due to being in the sun all day.  At times during the day I was craving salt, Due to loss of minerals in the sun. but I just continued to drink water to over come this. 

Day 8- I had jacket potato and Beans with salad (maybe a bit weird but I wanted some fresh produce) worked out to be around 450 calories. half a tin of baked beans is around 150 calories :-) I was so happy about this. 

Day 9- We had family BBQ, which was amazing. I made sure we had loads of fresh foods like jackets potato, salads, vegetable kebabs, and I did make my own 'special burger' 75g extra lean mince in a whole grain pitta. 

So I have finished my CLEAN 9 CLEANSE!! WOOHOOO.

I will do a conclusion blog either this evening or tomorrow with some inputs from my boyfriend on how I dealt with my hurdles and my overall well-being.. He has to live with me right.
