Detox Update Day 9
Day 7 of my detox, I felt my stomach a little raw, if you know what I mean. In other words extremely sensitive. I decided NOT to drink the pills which consisted of the laxative, milk thistle, and the fiber. The next day I felt better already. Like I have mentioned to you before, listen to YOUR Body! It doesn't matter what the instructions say, your body is a much better tool for knowing what you can and can not handle.
I do feel more energetic, lost 3 lbs, not that i needed to lose any, but it's just the way it is...and many of my students who decided to follow along with me have lost anywhere from 5-10 lbs thus far. You can read their comments on the "Valentine's Detox" blog. And some have even posted recipies.
But, make it through the Detox, even if it requires you just to remain eating clean without any pills at all. Stick to it. It's only 14 days of your life. Your body needs the detox from all the pollutants that our environment exposes us to, the foods you eat, unless of course you eat 100% organic all of the time, and even then, it isn't really 100% just because the label says "Certified Organic". Think of a detox as a tune up. Your vehicle cannot run optimally unless it's taken care of. I know I'm being a bit repetitive, but at times repetition is key in order to really grasp it.
If you still haven't started the detox, I posted it just 2 blogs below this one. It explains everything I'm doing there.
P.S. New Website is almost done...You are gonna love it! And from my website You will be able to go back and forth to my blog because they will be linked.
Alright, gotta hit the sack...
gotta get up early to train my peeps, take my probiotic as soon as I wake, meditate, eat breakfast and keep on rockin' and rollin'!
Lots of Love,
Coach
P.S.S. I went back on the pills tonight day 9 but now I decreased the amount of laxatives from 3 to 1. And the milk thistle I increased from 1 to 2, just cause that's what it said on the directions. And the fiber pills, I kept the same.

Yari,
I made it!! Only fell off the wagon 1 time. Got right back on the detox though. Today, Monday is my last day. I do feel great. I am wondering whats next? Do I start adding back in more veggies and switch up the protein more? I'm still off the soda and coffee!!! I'm drinking lots of water and having a green tea or 2 during the day. I've been walking every day but know I have to do more for excercise. I've lost 7 lbs but have quite a bit more to go.
Yey Deb!! That is great!!
Add things gradually. adding more veggies is fine. the major point is to remain eating whole foods 80% of the time. Eating every 2.5-3 hours, incorporate veggies into your nutrition as much as possible. Try and remain off coffee. Think of coffee as a treat once in a while. Stick to green tea. A real good one is one with toasted brown rice,it's very comforting. Stay off the soda, why would you want it back in your system? Again if you want one every once in a while, its ok. And you can start incorporating other meats as well, just make sure it's grass fed.
Keep on going. This is a lifestyle. Enjoy eating this way. and every so often, have the spices of life.
To me, this is life! I feel better eating this way. I just wanted to share a big part of my life with you and everyone, and inspire you to live life to it's fullest.
I hope that I have added to everyone's life, even if it was only 1 thing you learned from this experience. And if you learned 10, even better!!!
lots of love
Coach Yari
