DAY TWO

Sorry for any confusion regarding dairy. Dairy is fine. Just a little here and there. IF you are someone who eats lots and lots then this 5 day period may be a great time to abstain.

Coffee and Tea- Try only 1-2 cups a day. If you are accustomed to more than 2 cups you can taper slowly. In place of your 3rd cup of coffee have 1/2 decaf or a cup of green tea. In about 5 days you can get down to 1-2 cups. The headaches will go away.

MORNING
Hot water and 1/2 lemon upon rising
Coffee or Tea to follow is fine
Breakfast within 30-40 minutes of waking
Breakfast... Add protein to your breakfast

MID-MORNING
A small snack is fine
Drink water all morning

LUNCH
By lunch you should have drank enough water that you have peed at least 3 times since waking up.
Focus on lean protein, veggies and a whole grain. If not having bread is killing you this would be a great time to have an eziekel tortilla or some brown rice etc. See last night's post for a list of whole grains.

AFTERNOON
This is arguable the hardest part of the day for many folks. Have you snack about 3 hours after your lunch. Make your snack delicious! If you are starving make sure your snack has protein in it.

DINNER
If you had grains for lunch dinner is a good time to do just lean protein and veggies.

AFTER DINNER
No snacking! Drink lots of water, tea, try the "Sassy" water recipe from yesterday's post, Sparkling water with lemon/lime or bitters, herbal tea. Yogi tea makes a great tea called "fasting tea" which is great to drink throughout the day if you are having headaches or if you are really hungry.

Again if you do not have sleeping children get outside and move post dinner. If you do have sleeping children or can not go outside...do something you have not had time to do i.e clean out your desk, organize/cleanse your closet, read a book you have had no time to read, plan your next vacation, make out or make love.

HEADACHES
They will go away. Drink more water, sweat more. Exercise will help a lot. There are a few people here that do not drink and have reported serious headaches because of lack of sugar. Sugar addiction is real, I'm sorry!

MOVEMENT
Move for at least one hour today. It is fine to break it up into 2 half hours if time is an issue. Please comment if you are having any trouble with this, I have so many ideas on how to fit exercise in. Exercise is imperative to my own personal happiness so I have found ways to get to it even in my most busy times. I am going to include some good ab, ass and thigh exercises in my next post.


REMEMBER

NO SUGAR
NO BARS- ( if you are exercising a lot and you must, please find one with the lowest sugar possible... no more than 11 grams for bar... i like green plus whey crisp... but in general bars are not cleansing, they are full of things like date paste and nut butters which can be good for you at times but not now! and you are better to add an extra greek yogurt before exercise or a small smoothie).
NO GUM ( sorry i didn't specify this earlier, full of sugar and chemicals that resemble sugar)
NO WHOLE FOODS SAMPLES! ( i see you)
NO GRAZING
NO BOOZE
NO BAKED GOODS ( no cookies, no scones, no muffins)
NO CHOCOLATE
NO CAKE
NO CHIPS,PRETZELS ETC.
NO NUTS
NO SUGARY TEA
NO ENERGY DRINKS
NO LATTES, CAPPUCINOS ETC
NO SODA

LIMITED FRUIT... yes berries, yes apples no tropical fruits.


YES VEGGIES ( no potatoes, no yams)
YES PROTEIN ( if soy tempeh better than tofu)
YES WHOLE GRAINS ( in their purest form)
YES WATER ( try to drink a lot of water especially first 3 days, this will help with the trimming part and the cravings)
YES TEA
YES COFFEE
YES YOGURT ( especially greek or icelandic this has 16 grams of protein and no sugar and is also less processed)
YES A LITTLE CHEESE
YES GREEN JUICE
YES SPARKLE WATER
YES KOMBUCHA ( to help with cocktail and sugar cravings)
YES LOVE

YOU ARE ALL AWESOME!
